We’re sure you would agree that being a small business owner has its perks.

Many small businesses operate from home which means you can still be hands-on to a degree, keeping an eye on things, take a lunch break in your own kitchen and get the kids settled with homework in the afternoon. Perks like these can go a long way in achieving the work/life balance we all strive for.

What perks does your business offer you? How about your accounting system? Are you reaping good benefits from it?

The motivation for investing in business software is to reap the benefit, right? If you’re not getting maximum benefit out of your QuickBooks accounting software perhaps you haven’t renewed your QuickPerks licence.

This annual licence fee product was launched early last year, giving millions of customers exclusive and easy access to unlimited priority support, updates and upgrades.

At QuickBooks we understand that as a small business owner you have a lot on your plate. Your financials are important, yes. But, they cannot be your sole focus all day long or you won’t get anything else done.

This is why accounting software, like QuickBooks with QuickPerks, is such a valuable financial partner for any small business owner.
