South Dakota’s VRS P.C. Subsidiary Invests In Award-Winning Franchise
WATERTOWN, S.D. – Jan. 24, 2024 –Payroll Vault, the fastest growing, award-winning payroll franchise, announced today it has expanded in South Dakota, signing a subsidiary of large accounting firm VRS P.C as its newest franchisee.
Bookkeeping & Payroll by VRS, LLC, a wholly-owned group of VRS P.C., brings the franchise’s unparalleled support for the business community to the Watertown region. Franchise Business Review recently recognized Payroll Vault with seven industry awards, including “Best in Category” and “Top Franchises” as well as top honors in financial return, innovation, culture and support for women entrepreneurs.
“Bookkeeping & Payroll by VRS, LLC investigated multiple options for payroll software and were hands down the most impressed with Payroll Vault and the team they have put together,” said the subsidiary’s CEO and principal Sherry Kleinsasser, CPA. “The idea of being part of a franchise that gives us a team environment to support us and help us grow is so exciting.”
“The award-winning Payroll Vault system lets franchisees leverage their expertise in business, sales, and accounting to become a successful owner/operator or a multiple-unit empire builder with unparalleled technical service and deep community support,” said Ryan Durishin, who is Vice President of Development at Oakscale Franchise Development, which manages the Payroll Vault brand. “We look forward to supporting the business community in the Watertown region!”
The new Payroll Vault franchise will be managed locally by Kleinsasser, as well as Anna Bisgard, senior payroll processing specialist, and Brandi Full, senior data processing specialist.
While Kleinsasser indicated six different aspects of the Payroll Vault franchise that convinced her to invest, it was the technology platform that stood out the most. “The software used was the most impressive software we encountered through our research,” she said, specifically adding that Payroll Vault was unrivaled in terms of integration, automation, client portal accessibility, and user interface.
But the level of support the subsidiary received from the Payroll Vault team and its community of franchisees sealed the acquisition. Kleinsasser said she found the team approach on processes and procedures with more help from other franchisees to be invaluable.

Last year, Franchise Business Review recognized Payroll Vault with seven industry awards, including “Best in Category” and “Top Franchises” as well as top honors in financial return, innovation, culture, and support for women entrepreneurs.
