Membership Benefits Include:
Sleeter Group Experts Forum, powered by Yahoo! Groups
Our online Expert Forum is exclusive to Sleeter Consultants. Members use this tool to communicate about financial accounting software and add-ons, ask technical questions, pass along referrals, and get business advice. This valuable tool is rated by members as the best benefit.
Consultant's Reference Guide
The Consultant's Reference Guide is the bible for QuickBooks and accounting software consultants. Sleeter Consultants receive a hard copy version of the 600+ page manual, as well as access to a downloadable PDF, during their first membership year. Updates to the book are then available to Consultants in downloadable PDF format, or a printed book may be purchased at a deeply discounted price.
Discount on Sleeter Products
Sleeter Consultants receive a 20% discount on products ordered from our online store.
VAR Programs and Solution Partner Incentives
Sleeter Consultants are eligible to join our Solution Partners to earn incremental revenue by selling solutions that we've found to be superior accounting software add-ons. To learn more about this program, visit the Solution Partners page.
Monthly Web Conference
A monthly Consultants-only conference call, hosted by Doug Sleeter, covers the latest accounting software news, developments, and member information. All Consultants are encouraged to attend live or to review the archived version on demand.
The Sleeter Group on LinkedIn
On our LinkedIn Group you may create a rich profile of your own, and also view the profiles of other Sleeter Consultants and partners. Connecting on LinkedIn is a more personal way to interact with each other for networking. Non-members and non-Sleeter partners are restricted from this Group.
The Sleeter Group Newsletter, The Desktop Accountant
Be sure to sign up for our monthly newsletter, The Desktop Accountant. The newsletter contains technical articles, product reviews, product announcements, Sleeter Group Webinar information, and event updates.
Free Subscription to CPA Practice Advisor
CPA Practice Advisor lives at the intersection of technology and public accounting, and is a must-read for those in the accounting software consulting industry. The magazine features a "Buyer's Guide" that lists hundreds of businesses, manufacturers, and professionals ready to assist accounting technologists in delivering a variety of services to their clients in industries such as loan packaging, oil & gas, not-for-profit, and more.
Certification and Marketing Exposure on our Find-a-Consultant Web Page
Become Sleeter Group Certified and add credibility to your practice. Pass our QuickBooks certification exam to become a Sleeter Group Certified QuickBooks Consultant. Certified Consultants are added to our searchable Find-a-Consultant Web database. You will also receive a Sleeter Group Certified lapel pin and ready to-frame certificate.
Secure Online File Sharing, powered by ShareFile
By using our easy-to-use secure file sharing site, Consultants can exchange files with their clients without leaving the office. Share any file type with as many clients as you like. There is no additional cost to you or your clients for up to 1GB per month of file transfer and up to 500MB of file storage at any given time. Once you exceed these limits, you will be offered the opportunity to upgrade your service at a special discount. You may also upgrade your service to a private-labeled site.
Accounting Solutions Conference
Today, success for accountants and their clients no longer depends on your ability to learn better tricks for using yesterday's accounting systems, but instead depends on your agility in using a broad range of new and emerging tools. Members receive discounted rates to attend the Conference, as well as invitations to attend Member-Only events at the Conference. Visit the Conference web site for more details about this year's Conference.
Webinars
We know that you need Webinars that are engaging and inspiring, yet practical, with immediate benefit to your bottom line. We have the topics you need and some of the country's leading experts as instructors. Find out more.
QuickBooks Assessments
Use our assessment exams to pre-screen accounting candidates for you or your clients. We have three assessments for Sleeter Consultants to use: QuickBooks Bookkeepers exam, QuickBooks Controller exam, and QuickBooks Consultant hiring exam. You can use up to 50 instances of these assessments! We send the results of the assessments to the Consultant via e-mail.
Search Engine Listings
Through our alliances with other Web site providers, members can opt into posting free listings on other search sites where people go when they're looking for QuickBooks or accounting help. Availability for posting varies based upon the alliances in place at any given time, but members are alerted via Consultant Courier.
