    Branding
    If you have an existing website, you can link to it from your profile. If you have neither time nor inclination to develop a website, your QuickSource profile can serve as your "brand" or business identity. You use a link to your profile in your outgoing e-mail signature line, and on your business cards to assist you in finding new customers.

    You may elect to launch an e-mail address yourname@thequicksource.com, or use the QuickSource business card template to maintain a consistent look and feel for your business.

    Referrals
    Small businesses come to this site to understand their needs and find help. They will browse the provider listing and call you directly if they believe your experience and location is a match for their needs.

    When that call comes, it is then up to you to explain how your experience fits their needs, and tell them if and when you are available. Your yearly membership pays for unlimited referrals.

    Alternatively, the business can post a project or job, and as a member you can respond to that post.

    Connect to Peers
    Bookkeeping can be isolating. Come to the QuickBooks Talk and Swap meetings to meet other QuickBooks® software professionals, share resources and technical consulting tools, increase professional skills, and refer clients to one-another.

    Mentoring
    The path to accreditation in this field is not clear cut. It starts with a bookkeeping certificate of some kind, and builds with time and experience. Many of us choose to take the tests and become a QuickBooks® ProAdvisor and/or Point of Sale® expert. In our meetings and on-line networking, we will discuss career paths, and what it means to be a bookkeeper vs. expert software support professional.

    For example, many who found their way to bookkeeping don't know that working as a software support provider involves shorter-term contracts for higher pay, generally with clients who are located farther away. Many members in our community are parents who are commited to a work/life balance. Keeping track of multiple clients successfully in the context of a busy life is often a theme in our discussions.
