RE: How To Quickly and Confidently Use QuickBooks to Manage Your Business and Boost Your Profits!

Dear Fellow Business Owner,

Have you been attempting to use QuickBooks® financial software to manage your business records, but feel overwhelmed with how much there is to learn?

Have you found yourself just trying to figured it all out as you go along, and running into snags in the process?

QuickBooks® is THE most popular bookkeeping program for small businesses today. In the advertising, they say QuickBooks® helps you save more time and get more organized.

And it's true. QuickBooks is an extremely powerful, user-friendly program, designed to help you run your business effectively and profitably. It can answers important questions about the financial health of your business so you can get to the next level of success in the least amount of time.

that is, if you know how to use it, and use it effectively.

But QuickBooks® Strength Is Also Its Weakness!

What makes it so powerful is exactly what makes it so overwhelming!.

To reap the incredible benefits this program has to offer, you must do some very specific functions exactly the right way. These methods are unique to the QuickBooks® software. In fact, even your accountant might do these functions in the wrong way and not even realize it until it's too late!

The truth is, most busy entrepreneurs are simply too involved with money-making tasks to stop and invest long hours, or even a whole day or two away from their business, just to learn how to  use QuickBooks® software effectively. Instead, they just end up "winging it."

But that's actually the most dangerous choice because using QuickBooks the wrong way can render your financial records useless! Doesn't that defeat the whole purpose of keeping your records in the first place?

I Don't Care Who You Are,
"Winging It" With QuickBooks
® Is A BIG Mistake!

I've seen it happen too many times to business owners and their bookkeepers who think they can learn QuickBooks® by the seat of their pants. They try to save time and money by just "faking it" and hoping for the best. But in reality, they are putting a financial noose around the neck of their business.

Don't send your company to the gallows!

Take the case of one of my clients. After many month of making unintentional but serious mistakes while attempting to use QuickBooks® she nearly crashed and burned her business in a big way ― even though she was on the cutting edge in her industry.

The problem?  She wasn't recording her sales correctly, and she didn't know how to track the payments she was making to her suppliers. She had no idea if she was even turning a profit. The fact is, money was flying into and out of her business like crazy and she was completely out of control because her financial reports were in a total shambles!

Eventually, she was in such a mess that she couldn't even file her tax returns or get the funding she so desperately needed to grow and keep up with her customers' demands.

Under a huge amount of pressure, constantly on the brink of disaster, she confided that she spent many nights crying herself to sleep because of the tremendous stress. Her business almost came to a screeching halt. It felt like she was handcuffed by her faulty financial records. And she was! Without accurate reports or current tax returns, no one would even consider giving her the funding she needed to survive and stay ahead of her competition.

She was flying blind because she didn't see the value in investing her time to learn the fundamentals of how to use QuickBooks® the right way. Just getting the basic training she needed  would have saved her so much time and frustration! Without a doubt, in the end, she spent much, MUCH more of her time and THOUSANDS of dollars to salvage and fix her bookkeeping records after the damage had already been done. Not smart.

Learned the fundamentals right from the beginning can save you a huge amount of heartache and expense, not to mention, give you the information and freedom to quickly move your business toward greater profitability.

Would You Rather Fly Blind or Fly Smart?

The most important reason for keeping track of your financial records is so you can make smart strategic decisions and reach your goals as quickly as possible. Having accurate, up-to-date financial information at your fingertips gives you clear vision for reaching your destination safely. By quickly mastering the fundamentals in QuickBooks® now, you can easily take control of your financial records yourself and manage your business for success now.

Isn't it time you started working on your business and not just in your business?

If You're Serious About Building a Highly Profitable Company,
Then You Need to Be Serious About Managing Your Finances

If you want to build more than just a job for yourself and truly prosper without working your brains out and being underpaid, then you need to put systems in place that will handle your financial functions as efficiently and consistently as possible. QuickBooks is a powerful tool for keeping your books and systematizing your whole business.

The sad truth is, over 80% of small businesses fail within the first five years. The vast majority fail because of financial mismanagement. Don't be just another statistic!

Set yourself and your business up for success and join the top 20% of successful businesses by  registering now for the most important course you'll attend this year!

Learn Easily While Maximizing Your Time And Effectiveness

Realistically, each of us can absorb only so much new information in one sitting before we become overloaded and overwhelmed. Can you really retain everything you learn in 8-12 solid hours of intense training at some cold, off-site hotel conference room away from your office?

When you are mentally overloaded with information, can you really put it all to work effectively when you finally get back to your own computer and your own set of books?

I didn't think so..

So why do so many live trainings operate this way?

It's because that's a convenient way for the trainer to just teach the class all at once and get it over with. The attendees want access to a live instructor who can give them personalized attention and "make them" learn the information quickly.

But there's a better way!

Doesn't it make a lot more sense to spend just 60-90 minutes at a time focusing on the most important functions, step-by-step, on a convenient, flexible schedule over just a few weeks?

What if you could then take what you're learning and, as you go along, apply it immediately to your own company records? Better yet, what if you could still get personalized, live attention from a QuickBooks expert? Wouldn't THAT be the most effective way to learn how to use QuickBooks? And best of all, wouldn't it be great if this kind of personalized training didn't put a big demand on your schedule, away from your office and the critical money-making functions of your day?

That's exactly how the "QuickBooks Basics: Core Training" Web-based e-course works! You get maximum impact with minimum overload. And it's so time effective! You'll be using what you learn with the guidance of an Advanced Certified QuickBooks trainer, from the convenience of your own office! No major disruption to your busy schedule.

It is simply the easiest and most efficient way to learn and implement QuickBooks in your business.  Period.

If this is the kind of QuickBooks training you've been looking for, then mark your calendar starting February 22, 2010 and reserve your spot for this special QuickBooks training that's like no other.

Your online training sessions will begin Wednesday, February 22 and run through Friday, March 12, 2010.

Get ALL Your Questions Answered by A QuickBooks Expert

Because every business is different, you'll have the opportunity to ask questions and learn how to apply what you're learning to in your own business throughout the class. You'll be able to submit your questions as you are putting what you learn into practice. There will be several LIVE online Q&A bonus sessions where you'll see the answers to your questions explained and demonstrated.

To participate in this training, all you need is a high-speed Internet connection. But there are only a limited number of spaces available, so you must register NOW to lock-in your spot for this exciting high-tech format. You will get your private access instructions needed to attend, after you complete your registration.

Who Should Attend This Course?

This course is designed for entrepreneurs and their bookkeepers who need to learn how to process the essential daily transactions in QuickBooks, reduce frustration, and increase the accuracy of financial reporting and decision making.

If you want the confidence that comes with knowing your numbers are right and you want to use that information to make strategic business decisions (not just find out how much you owe in taxes each year), then this course is the best investment you can make in the success of your business this year!

What This Class Is NOT

This class will NOT teach you the advanced features in QuickBooks®. You must learn to walk before you can run. We are starting from the beginning here and assuming that you want to first master the core fundamentals to build a solid base before you graduate to a more  advanced level.

If you've been successfully using advanced features (such as payroll and inventory) in QuickBooks® for some time, then this class is probably not for you.

This course is designed to be a fast-paced, easy-to-use training for getting the essential daily tasks handled the right way. The focus is on tracking the money flowing into and out of your business accurately. It will NOT teach you how to record unusual or complicated transactions. 

So if you're new to QuickBooks® financial software, or have been using it for some time, but want to fill in your knowledge gaps and finally take control of your bottom line, then you need to reserve your spot now for this special training course.

And the best part is...
