As the business grew from one location to three, Hunter faced new challenges — including the need to get a better handle on operations. Switching from weekly to bi-weekly pay made sense on paper, but he knew it wasn’t just a numbers decision.
“Some of our team members rely on that weekly paycheck,” Hunter shared. “It didn’t feel right to make that change without thinking through how it would affect them — especially with the holidays just behind us.”
Instead of making the switch and leaving people to adjust on their own, Hunter looked for a way to ease the transition and support his team through it.
After exploring several on-demand pay solutions, Hunter landed on Immediate — a solution that stood out for its ease of use, quick implementation, and all around support.
“The people at Immediate were the biggest differentiator,” he said. “They weren’t just selling me a product — they wanted to understand our team.”
What made Immediate the clear choice?
And most importantly — Immediate felt like a true benefit. Something his team would actually use and appreciate, not another platform gathering dust.
Immediate integrated seamlessly with their payroll provider, and the rollout happened quickly.
“We had one small payroll code issue, and the team jumped in immediately to fix it. They made everything easy.”
Within just weeks of going live, the impact was clear:
Hunter’s biggest concern — employee morale during the pay schedule change — quickly faded.
“We didn’t get a single complaint. That’s wild when you think about it. Immediate filled that gap.”
What started as a practical solution became something bigger — a recruiting tool, a culture-builder, and a token of the company’s values.
“When we bring this up in interviews, people are surprised. It’s not something they’ve seen before, and it sets us apart.”
In a competitive market where dental talent is hard to find and even harder to keep, Immediate has helped Pediatric Dental Care stand out by showing — not just telling — that they take care of their team.
“We needed a tool that would make change easier for our people. Immediate was that tool. I’d recommend it to any practice in our position.”
