CPAs and accountants know their clients would rather spend time in their business than on their business. One of the ways to do that is to recommend third-party apps that integrate with QuickBooks Online. Apps handle tasks, speed workflow, enable productivity, and help businesses – and even your own firm – be more efficient.
If you’re running your accounting on QuickBooks Online Advanced, you can help your clients tailor their software to work seamlessly with a growing suite of best-in-class apps, add-ons, and purpose-built integrations offering exclusive capabilities for Advanced customers. With Advanced’s Premium Apps, QuickBooks becomes a hub for managing all of the workflows that help your clients work smarter and grow faster – all from one place.
For small- and mid-size businesses, the manual tasks associated with preparing and sending estimates are often inefficient and take time away from serving customers. Intuit® recently launched the DocuSign eSignature Connector by QuickBooks to help small businesses digitally sign estimates directly from QuickBooks® Online Advanced (Advanced). In addition to time, customers can save an average of $36 per contract by reducing hard costs and improving employee productivity.
DocuSign eSignature Connector by QuickBooks allows businesses to:
- Go digital for a faster, more secure turnaround of estimates using e-signature to help close deals quicker.
- Streamline sales by automating the estimate process, so growing businesses can move from quote to cash faster.
- Stay on top of progress with notifications of their DocuSign documents, so they can follow up with next steps immediately.
