How-to-Find-a-QuickBooks-ProAdvisor

A QuickBooks ProAdvisor is a bookkeeper, accountant, or certified public accountant (CPA) who has been trained, tested, and certified by Intuit. By mastering a series of exams successfully, these professionals can assist QuickBooks clients and their employees with navigating and leveraging the software to the best of its ability. These exams demonstrate proficiency with one or more QuickBooks products. To maintain certification, the ProAdvisor must recertify every year by taking the latest exam.

The following are the 3 best places to find a QuickBooks ProAdvisor.

1. QuickBooks ProAdvisor Website

As of 2017, there were more than 200,000 QuickBooks ProAdvisors worldwide. To find a QuickBooks ProAdvisor near you, check out Intuit’s Find a ProAdvisor website. This site allows you to search for a ProAdvisor near you quickly and easily by entering your city, state, or ZIP code. To filter the search further, you can search by the specific types of services that you need.

If your search yields hundreds of results, you can narrow it down by selecting the type of industry. If you are in a sector that has specific accounting requirements, such as a nonprofit organization, it is recommended to filter the results to fit those requirements. In this case, it would be beneficial to hire a QuickBooks ProAdvisor who specializes in nonprofits.

2. QuickBooks Live

MAC is an online bookkeeping service that connects small businesses with QuickBooks ProAdvisors. Rather than dealing with an independent ProAdvisor, you will work with these professionals through QuickBooks. The team of QuickBooks MAC Bookkeepers has expertise in almost all industries. Their service involves three phases: cleanup/setup, ongoing bookkeeping, and month-end close. You’re not limited to a set amount of time per month, and you have the option of scheduling a video call once or twice per month to discuss any questions and to review month-end results. Depending on your needs, prices range from $200 to $600 per month

3. LinkedIn

LinkedIn is a professional networking website that is also a terrific resource for referrals. It is easy to conduct a search for “QuickBooks ProAdvisor” and filter the results for your area. You can also post a request for referrals, as it is likely that someone in your network is connected to one already. This is also a great opportunity to ask for an introduction, and you can also filter the search for your industry.
