The nationals are coming for your clients. Consolidation is crushing margins. And if you're not keeping up with the latest in the payroll and HR industry, you're going to get left behind. Welcome to Payrollin'. The no-BS podcast for independent payroll bureau owners and leaders who are done getting squeezed by ADP, Paychex, and the private equity machines swallowing up the industry. Hosted by Matt Vaadi, founder of guHRoo (a PEO) and Outsourced Scale (offshore staffing for payroll providers), this show delivers the strategies you need to survive — and thrive — while the middle collapses around you. Every week, you'll get: → Industry intel on the billion-dollar deals reshaping payroll → Proven tactics to scale past the 7-figure barrier → Real talk on margins, pricing, and profitability → Strategies to compete without killing your bottom line → Guests who've sold, scaled, or disrupted the status quo Whether you're fighting margin compression, exploring industry partnerships, or figuring out how to scale without sacrificing service, this podcast cuts through the corporate speak and gives you actionable pathways forward. Because if you're not specializing in a niche or adding serious value beyond commoditized payroll, you're racing to the bottom.

  • I Drove 3 Hours to See Inside a $3B PEO Acquirer (Here's What I Found)
    Apr 17 2026
    I drove three hours. No agenda, no idea what I was walking into to spend half a day inside Vensure Employer Services headquarters. What I saw was nothing like what I expected. 105 acquisitions. 8 deals in legal. 50 in the pipeline. $750M in revenue and still raising capital. This episode is the closest thing to a behind-the- scenes tour of the most aggressive PEO acquirer in the country and I'm sharing everything: how they structure deals, what they actually pay, why they don't force platform migrations, their AI client churn prediction tool that's 80% accurate, and what this means if you own a payroll bureau or PEO and are even remotely thinking about what comes next. This is not a sponsored episode. I told Alex Campos I wouldn't be a shill. This is my unbiased take after a 250-slide deck and a full facility tour.
