Paychex Update – It’s Official!!!

We know many of you are and have been working diligently to get your folks registered in Paychex – and on behalf of your HR team – WE APPRECIATE YOU SO MUCH for helping your employees through this process!

For those who still have employees that need to get registered and complete the onboarding tasks, don’t worry – we’ve got a little bit of time. Yesterday marked the beginning of the current pay period, so we’ve got at least another week to make sure all of your employees get into Paychex.

For those who have employees punching in/out of Paychex – KUDOS TO YOU!!! Below are some additional activities you and your employees can complete to continue learning the system.

***Check your Tasks***

When you log into Paychex, you should land on your Dashboard. In the middle of the page is a section named Tasks (the sections are referred to as “Tiles”).

If you have any tasks listed, click on the link and complete all required fields (required fields are indicated by a red asterisk (*). Click Save.

Don’t have any tasks? GREAT! That means you’ve officially completed all of your onboarding tasks!

***Check your Upcoming Events***

On your dashboard, there is another tile named Upcoming Events. This tile includes 2 dates; the best day of the year (YOUR BIRTHDATE 😊) and the 2nd best day of the year (YOUR ANNIVERSARY DATE 😉). Please check and confirm the dates showing for you are correct. If they aren’t please let your Manager know. Managers, please forward that information to Tamara Ross (tamara.ross@rriwest.com) and Kelly McCloud (Kelly.mccloud@rriwest.com) so that we can update the system.

We will continue to share additional updates as we learn more about the system. Stay tuned!!

St. Jude Promotion

As you may have seen in the Brand’s Under One Roof last month… there is a St. Jude promotion running from November 13-December 28. Promotional boxes should be arriving at your location this week! The Brand’s social media team would LOVE to see some pictures of you and your staff using the contents of the boxes (i.e., team members in uniform wearing the SWAG, DIY banners and/or cards displayed on property— see example below.)

We’d love to see some RRI West locations included in these social media posts!

If you are able to capture some great pictures, please send Edelyn Parker-Frye at eparker@redroof.com. Thanks everyone!

Sales Update

Hello Again & Happy Holidays from your Sales & Marketing team!

(How is it already time for the holidays)??!!!

As we finish up 2023, a few friendly reminders:

• Please be sure you are regularly checking (monthly) your FEMA/ELA availability status by logging in and ensuring that your Inn is marked availble for reservations.

• Anything new in your area? Restaurant changes? New attractions? The Sales team is in the midst of another Experience Page scrub – please let us know if you have anything you think should be mentioned, or omitted, on your EP. We want these pages to look as inviting and informative as possible!

• Is your local CVB/Chamber running any holiday campaigns for the hotels in the area that you can be a part of? Some will list any promotions that the area hotels have on their website or in their newsletters. Let us know & we are happy to set a holiday promo VP and get you a link. Check it out!

• Sales Incentive program – it is now over, but we are still tallying revenues that come in through November.

$$$ We will be announcing results and WINNERS next month $$$
