Payroll Vault Opens New Franchise in Alpharetta, Ga.

May 23, 2024, ALPHARETTA, Ga. – Payroll Vault announced today it has expanded in Alpharetta, Georgia, signing an experienced Certified Public Accountant as its newest franchisee.

Originally from New York City, Daudi Titus, who relocated to Alpharetta six years ago, will merge his accounting, audit, financial planning and analysis, and payroll background with the franchise’s technology to support the business community in the Atlanta region.

“After working with C-suite executives, you begin to understand the decisions that are made, why they are made, and how the business all ties together,” said Titus, recalling what led to his decision to invest in a Payroll Vault franchise. “You begin to think, ‘I have a skillset to measure financial metrics, a nose for business operation, so why can’t I do offer my expertise on my own?’”

After working for Time Warner (now Warner Bros. Discovery) for 15+ years in various finance roles, Titus realized he had the know-how to go out on his own. When Titus began researching investment opportunities, he initially thought about starting his own accounting business from the ground up, which would undoubtedly involve a large commitment of resources to build a sustainable infrastructure. His research led him to the world of franchising.

Titus credits Payroll Vault CEO Sean Manning with really spurring his excitement for the concept. “Sean is a standup guy and passionate about helping local small to midsize businesses,” Titus said. “When you talk with someone who is passionate about what they do, you can’t help but want to be a part of the team.”

After purchasing the company from his father, Manning realized the payroll service industry was under-serving small business owners, so he worked to create systems to streamline the process and exceed client expectations. In 2008 he founded Payroll Vault, which is a national leader within the independent payroll service provider industry.

“Sean saw an opportunity to revolutionize the payroll service industry for small businesses, and his vision has set a new standard in independent payroll services,” said Joshua Kovacs, who is chief executive officer of Oakscale Franchise Development, the franchise sales organization which manages the franchise development of the Payroll Vault brand.

Titus said Payroll Vault’s commitment to serving the local business community and the region at large sealed the deal for him. A husband and father of two children, Titus coaches his son and daughters’ youth sports teams and also serves on the boards of youth athletic organizations in Alpharetta.
