    Looking for presenters for this meeting. Pick your topic.

Who attended?

    •  The QB Meetup Group is a great environment to introduce members to new ideas on how we all can make life more rewarding with better tools and increased knowledge. We also learned from the jet pilot Charles Plumb who asks us to remember "Who Packed Your Parachute?" We look forward to seeing you at future meetings and please let me know what topics you would like covered. July meeting topic is Excel and August is Benchmarking. Steve 
    •  Well planned and well run. Good cross section of attendees. Definitely something there for everyone. I'll be back. Food itself was excellent - well above the average pizza and coca cola. Suggestion: have the phone-in attendees introduce themselves and indicate their area of interest. Possibly do it BEFORE the presentations. Only complaint: timing of food delivery. It should be delivered either in advance of presentations so people can eat and mingle or after (if the presenters end promptly at 8, serving it after might keep people lingering longer). Overall an outstanding job Steve. Thank you for putting this together and plugging us. I really appreciate it. CB 
    •  Terrific users group! It was well organized, with excellent content, in a very nice venue. Thanks so much for the food! I made some great contacts that I am now following up with. All in all, it was great experience. 
    •  Excellent professionals with lots to offer in terms of knowledge and experience. 
    •  Have a session before the user group starts for accountant and bookkeeper on products that geared to QuickBooks. This will benefit more QuickBooks users not belongs to the user group. 
    •  Good mix of professionals with different backgrounds and knowledge of Quickbooks.
