About Guided Payroll
Guided Payroll™ exists to make complex payroll compliance easier to understand, organize, and manage—without losing sight of the people and businesses behind every payroll.
Our story
Founded by Krishae McGriff, Guided Payroll brings more than 15 years of payroll experience to the moments when an answer matters most. From new state registrations to year-end readiness, the work is grounded in careful review, clear priorities, and a plan teams can use.
We believe compliance guidance should never leave you with more questions than you started with. Our education, tools, assessments, and consulting are designed to make the next right step visible.
Payroll compliance deserves more than a quick answer. It deserves a clear path forward.
