The best way to spread out your Quickbooks upgrade costs!

Posted by Brian Terrell on Fri, Jul 01, 2022

You'll typically pay at least $15,000 to $20,000 annually for a software subscription plus 1 to 1 and 1/2 times that amount to configure the software, convert your data, and train your users when you upgrade from Quickbooks to Sage Intacct. This video shares exactly how you can convert those large costs into a manageable, monthly fee and receive continuous, unlimited, and ongoing value in the form of training, support, and report/dashboard design and development services:
 
 
Late yesterday afternoon, a Quickbooks upgrader called me to say he'd authorized his BTerrell SmartSuite membership agreement and sent in the first month's membership fee. BTerrell SmartSuite is a portfolio of software, services, and deliverables including Sage Intacct, the one and only application ever named by the AICPA as the Preferred Provider of Financial Applications. But wait a second...what did our new Member mean when he said he'd sent in the first month's membership fee?
 
I'm Brian Terrell, Managing Partner of BTerrell Group. We've been automating back offices using Sage Intacct out of a North Texas office longer than anyone. BTerrell SmartSuite includes, along with Sage Intacct, unlimited software configuration and reconfiguration, unlimited end user training and software support, unlimited report design and development, and free access to every BTerrell MarketPlace Partner product.
 
The typical mid-market accounting software implementation requires tens of thousands of dollars in up-front payments of software subscription fees, plus 1 to 1 1/2 times that amount in services for configuration, data conversion, training and go-live support. It's all worth it, but that's the definition of a 'business project' and not a 'business relationship'.
 
Suppose I drive a new car off the dealer's lot. The minute I do so, that dealer hopes he or she never hears from me again until I'm ready to buy another new car. If I'd have subscribed to that car, when I drive off the lot they're thinking what they must do in order to earn the next month's subscription fee. That's because the recognition of recurring revenue demands the provision of recurring benefits. And, each party to the transaction will be happy if and only if the customer receives continuous recurring benefits.
 
That's the difference between a 'business project' and a 'business relationship'. It all makes sense now. BTerrell SmartSuite is a business relationship providing continuous recurring benefits to Quickbooks upgraders choosing Sage Intacct.

But whatever you do, ...insist on membership in BTerrell SmartSuite.
