Loan Offers by US Mail
Not only does Intuit inundate me with ads for undesired product offerings on QuickBooks, now they are physically mailing loan offers. It is interesting to see Intuit leadership move backwards, lose focus and burn money like a 2000s era Dot Com. Here is a non-exhaustive listing of the ways Intuit and QuickBooks disappoints:
- Spending more on lobbying efforts than product improvements
- Pushing people to pay more than they need to (Looking at you TurboTax)
- Constantly pushing people to provide "feedback" for issues
- Never doing anything with "feedback"
- Not learning the lesson in 2008 that accounting software companies should not offer lending
- Employing individuals to comment on topics they know nothing about
- Not allowing journal entries to be imported and lamely blaming it on accounting standards (fyi that's a lie).
The proliferation of ads on the paid site are terrible. Adding physical ads to the mail is just sad.
