Are you running a small business (or would you like to)? Do you occasionally do IT Professional work outside your regular job? Do you assist clients with their business needs? This Meetup may be for you. Two presenters will be talking about various cloud accounting software and how you can make the most use of them. It's cold outside but we'll have food and drinks available in additional to some cool prizes.

Please RSVP by Tuesday evening if at all possible, however RSVP's are open until 3pm on Wednesday the 7th. Welcome time is at 6pm, and we'll begin closer to 6:30pm.

It's TAX SEASON! Are you providing billable services to customers? or are you considering starting your own consulting business? Then you don't want to miss this informative session on using Freshbooks for keeping your billing organized and your time tracking managed! Freshbooks allows you to not only manage your client accounts for receivables and invoicing, but also track all your time, your hardware expenses, your contractors, your staff, and each project you do. Eliminate lost billable time and add hours back to your day thanks to the efficient and powerful tools in Freshbooks. Get a few helpful tips from an expert user.

As a side note, I will also expand into Square, and our experience using their service for mobile payment, followed by a quick overview of what we have seen happening in the marketplace with SAGE and QuickBooks at SMB's....from migration headaches to a shift to a preferred software choice.
