5 Reasons to Join The QB Community
Chances are you’re reading this post because you’re curious about our QuickBooks Community. If you like what we’re doing, we hope you’ll sign up as a member and join our active, engaged community. After all, we built it for small business owners just like you.
Here are our top 5 reasons to join the QB Community.
- Our members are supportive
Sure, you work for yourself. But that doesn’t mean you have work by yourself. Whether you’re celebrating a new customer, solving an inventory problem or venting your frustration about a late payment, you’ll be cheered - or cheered up - by others in our supportive community.
“If I’m in the middle of my worst day ever and someone else is having a great day [in the Community], I remind myself tomorrow will be easier” — Danielle Vincent, soap maker and QB Community member.
- Our members are resourceful
When you work for yourself, you have to figure out a lot of things on your own. This Community can help you find shortcuts for everything from tracking your finances and marketing your product to hiring employees and connecting with the perfect supplier.
“It’s helpful to compare notes with other business owners. We ask each other what’s working, what isn’t, what systems are best for shipping and how to source materials. Even though we own our own businesses, we can’t get all the answers on our own. The Internet is a helpful resource, but nothing replaces a recommendation from a person you know and trust” — Joanna Misunas, gift box curator and QB Community member.
- Our members are caring
We all know running a business is complicated. But that doesn’t make it any easier to ask a question you worry might sound dumb. In this Community, there’s no such thing as a silly question. Here, you can get the answers you need without feeling intimidated or judged.
“Everyone in the QB Community is generous with information about their experiences and where they are on their journey. One thing that attracts me to this site is the way it’s OK to be vulnerable. The QB Community feels like a safe place to communicate honestly and build one-to-one relationships” - Lloyd Mabuto, website developer and QB Community member.
- Our members know what it takes to succeed
As a small business owner, you’re probably used to juggling your side-gig with your full-time job - or you’re used to the 24/7 work cycle. Either way, you know it takes a certain mindset to make it as an entrepreneur. In this Community, we get it - which means we get you.
“A business owner knows it takes hard work and sleepless nights to start a company. It means going against the flow, ignoring people who say your dream is impossible. A business owner calls one more person, checks one more resource, tries one more thing. An average person clocks out at 5 pm” — Pascal Depuhl, photographer and QB Community member.
- Our members are a lot like you
Takes one to know one, right?
“I really love the energy of small business owners. These are individuals who are turning their passion into a livelihood. There is a sparkle and a magic to their experience, and the feeling is infectious!” - Dirk Franklin, inventor and QB Community member.
