If you’ve ever dreaded payroll day or worried about screwing up a paycheck, read this. Missing a paycheck even once is how you lose trust with your good guys fast So we built a simple system we run every second Monday that: - Takes 10 minutes or less - Never misses a paycheck - Keeps your job-costing tight so you actually know what your labor is costing you Here’s the exact play we run at Bear Claw. 1. Timesheets: Make The Crew Own Their Hours Goal: Capture daily hours from the field so payroll day is just “approve & send.” Tool: Jobber mobile app (Field Service app) How it works in our shop: - Every crew member has Jobber on their phone - When they show up: they clock in to the specific job, not just “general time” - Our expectation: roughly 10‑hour workdays (some a little over/under is fine) - One guy lives an hour away → we pay him an extra hour of drive time every day (that’s what it took to get him on the team) Why Jobber: - Easy for field guys to use (big green “Clock In” button) - When they clock into a job, Jobber tracks labor hours per job, so your numbers and job-costing get sharper over time - On payroll day you have all hours in one place ready to approve Owner rule: You write the paycheck.They are 100% responsible for logging their own hours. Set that expectation on day one. 2. Payroll System: Money Monday With Gusto Goal: Never miss a paycheck and see labor spikes before they bite you. Tool: Gusto (payroll software) integrated with Jobber What this looks like: - Every second Monday = Money Monday - I log into Jobber, go to Timesheets → Approve timesheets - I scan for outliers (someone suddenly at 3 hours or 18 hours when everyone else is ~10–11) - Once approved, hours sync straight into Gusto Then in Gusto: 1. Click “Run payroll” 2. Gusto pulls in all approved hours from Jobber 3. I glance at: Regular hours vs overtime (Any weird spikes vs last payroll) 4. Add any commissions/bonuses 5. Click Submit payroll
