According to a recent survey published in the Journal of Accountancy, 70 percent of small businesses rely on professional accountants for advice on payroll administration. To help accountants, Intuit (NASDAQ: INTU), the leading provider of complete solutions for professional accountants, has launched the QuickBooks® Payroll Referral Program. The program enables accountants to confidently assist their clients in choosing the right payroll services for their needs.
The QuickBooks Payroll Referral Program provides accounting professionals with information, tools, and resources to effectively refer and support QuickBooks Payroll Services. The QuickBooks Payroll Services comprise a range of solutions that are self-service or full service and can fully integrate with QuickBooks or can stand-alone.
Once an accountant completes the program's free registration (available at http://www.intuitadvisor.com/prp), they will receive a free QuickBooks Payroll Referral Kit. The kit contains marketing and service forms, a CD demo introduction to the QuickBooks Payroll Services, an exclusive priority service and support phone number and access to a convenient, start-up teleseminar complete with a live question and answer session. Accountants can then use these materials to help market payroll services to their clients and help them find the solution that best fits their business.
According to Rich Walker, director of Intuit's Professional Accountant Channel, the new program provides accountants with an extra level of service and support. "Accountants are looking for payroll solutions they can trust. The QuickBooks Payroll Referral Program brings together the industry's most robust and complete payroll services, giving accountants the tools and support they need to deliver to their clients."
