Today is a Gusto Showcase! It’s one of my favorite moments, when we share a summary of how we’re making Gusto better for our 500,000+ small business customers.

At @GustoHQ, we obsess over helping small businesses, and every challenge they face is an opportunity for us to help. Gusto has never been just a tool or technology. We strive to be a partner for small businesses, taking hats off their head, doing work on their behalf, so they can progress in building their business.

With 500,000+ customers, we know we’re still early in the journey. There are millions of small businesses we are eager to serve.

The future of business is small. And that’s big. #GustoShowcase

I’m thrilled to share that we’re launching Gusto 401(k) today! At @GustoHQ, we love serving small businesses, and we believe that they and their teams deserve the best retirement products on the market. That’s why we acquired Guideline -- because they spent ten years building the best 401(k) product for small businesses. We’ve already helped tens of thousands of small businesses set up a 401(k), and our goal is to help millions more.

Enjoy the attached video!

My daughter learned how to make coffee and brought me coffee in bed. Wondering if the gesture is sweet since she did so at 5:50am and she had to wake me up to drink said coffee.
