GLENVIEW, IL—(Marketwired – June 29, 2015) – SurePayroll, a nationwide provider of online payroll services to small businesses, was honored recently for its digital content aimed at informing small business owners on topics including payroll, taxes, productivity, technology and more.

The company's Payroll Blog, along with content that has appeared in such publications as Inc.com, Entrepreneur.com and FastCompany.com, helped garner the award.

The company was among just 50 recipients of the International Public Relations Association's Golden Awards for Excellence announced this month. The awards recognize companies practicing only the highest standards of public relations and communications. Netflix, Bank of America and PayPal were among the other award winners.

“We gain a lot of insights from our thousands of small business and startup customers. So we're able to share a lot of really relevant information with other business owners that they can use to be more successful,” said SurePayroll General Manager Andy Roe. “Today's entrepreneur has the ability to go to Google and search for an answer to almost anything related to running a business — we want to help provide those answers with our content. Social media also makes it really easy to share great articles, infographics and statistics. We feel we have a lot to offer our audience.”

Some of SurePayroll's most popular content includes an infographic with research on the best times to post to social media sites; a primer on how to calculate payroll taxes; a deeply detailed blog post with “growth hacks” any small business can implement; and a look inside the venture capital industry.
