What motivated me to spend months creating these shortcuts for you?
One critical situation triggered me to create these amazing Compensation Templates
I noticed that HR professionals and Small Companies are struggling just to re-create the wheel.
- They don't have any salary range structure in place
- They don't know wether they are paying their employees fairly
- They could be under-paying high performance and overpaying low performance
- They could be facing turnover if they haven't kept up with competitive pay practices
- They don't understand how to tie performance ratings to a budgeted increase program
- They get stuck when it comes to the technical part of using spreadsheets
- ALL of this can lead to extreme headaches, frustration and a sense of overwhelm
Understanding what to do with employee compensation and how to manage it in excel spreadsheets is not easy when you have to start from scratch.
Luckily, you do NOT have to be in this situation when you can have access to these templates and resources.

HR is all about people, not Numbers!
Are you one who hates working with the numbers and formulas?
Believe me, I know how it feels!
There’s nothing more annoying than spending hours trying to get a spreadsheet to do what you want!
Then with the ambiguity and frustration of not knowing the right way compensation plans should be set up or if you are really paying for performance.
When people face spreadsheet struggles, they jump online and spend hours hunting google or youtube to find a solution. There are literally MILLIONS of videos to sort through – do you have time to watch all of those?
