Intuit recently launched software with community building capability built into its functionality. Scott Wilder, group manager of their small business group, tells Marketing Voices how their users are loving the product already. The functionality is not a link or popup, but part of the overall community experience. It is unique for sure, and other corporations will most likely follow Intuit’s lead.

Can We Talk You Out of Owning Your Own Business?
from Bigg Success September 25, 2008
Intuit, the makers of QuickBooks software, conducted a study of working adults [doc] not long ago. They found that 67 percent think about quitting their jobs regularly or constantly, while 72 percent said they want to start their own business. The number one reason cited for this was to be more passionate about their work. ___ ___ The participants were asked who inspired them: Donald Trump (38%) and Hugh Hefner (34%) were the top choices for men; Oprah Winfrey received 66% of the women s vote. That response made us think there are misperceptions of what it means to own a business; what an entrepreneur faces day-to-day. There s the Hollywood version, but it often doesn t reflect the real world. 5 common myths about owning your own business #1 I won t have to answer to a boss. While technically true, it s not accurate in practice. The reality is that, as a business owner, you answer to every customer by you and your firm. You answer to your banker if you borrow money. The government will require you to do certain things by certain times. As a business owner, you won t have a boss; you ll have many bosses! #2 I set my own hours. You ve probably seen or heard the ads. Just buy this business opportunity you ll hardly have to work and the money will just pour in. If only it worked that way! You may enjoy a great deal of flexibility as a business owner. However, you ll probably work more than you ever imagined, especially in the early stages of your business. #3 I can get my employees to do the grunt work. Many new business owners formerly part of the corporate world have trouble adjusting to the lack of resources that are inherent in many start-ups. They were used to having people who did certain things. Start-ups can t afford extra people; many can t afford people at all! You ll have to get used to doing a lot of things, if not everything, yourself, even the dirty work. #4 I ll make more money. Start-ups consume money; there often isn t much to spare. You may not get a regular paycheck at first. You ll have to build up the business to afford that luxury . ___ When I was younger, I couldn t find anyone willing to pay me what I thought I was worth. So I started my own business I quickly realized that I couldn t afford to pay me what I thought I was worth! ___ #5 I ll have less stress than I do with my job. ___ As a first-time entrepreneur, I ve learned that stress hits from many angles clients with deadlines, so much work to get done, and worries when things don t go as planned. I ve learned to be much tougher mentally and emotionally. ___ All of this reminds us of Jackson Browne s song, The Load Out They re the first to come, and the last to leave, working for that minimum wage. In the song, he s talking about roadies. But we wonder couldn t he be describing start-up entrepreneurs? When your business is in the start-up phase, it s like a newborn baby. You have to nurture it and care for it until it reaches the point where it doesn t need you so much anymore. Prepare yourself for a five-year horizon before you start. If starting a business doesn t sound so good anymore, we feel like we ve done our job. You won t face the financial, and more importantly, the emotional turmoil that comes with a start-up. However, if you re now more determined than ever to start a business, you ve passed a critical test. You can t be talked out of it. You ve peered beyond the popular and romantic view of business ownership. You re starting to see it as it really is. You re ready to become an entrepreneur! ___ Get the tips and tools you need to be a BIGG success.

Intuit Raids the 80s for the Jingle Generator
from GigaOM August 08, 2008
Let s just admit it: Your Love by one-hit wonder The Outfield still holds up, more than 20 years on. Its catchy melody is rivaled only by the inability to sing in the same high-pitch as the lead singer. But will its sing-along-ability be enough to get you to buy QuickBooks? You have to give Intuit an A for effort. There is nothing fun about any of its products, but that isn t stopping the company from trying (reallllllly trying) to add a little levity to bookkeeping. This week it launched the Jingle Generator, a goofy online service that basically lets businesses insert their name into a modified cover version of Your Love. Intuit hired a dead ringer for the vocals (I had to ask a spokesperson if they got the real band not totally implausible because really, what is The Outfield doing nowadays?). Unfortunately, the novelty and the nostalgia wears thin pretty quickly. At the site, famous record producer Tommy Silk walks you through the recording session where you choose your industry and insert the name of your company. Moments later your track is complete, with your corporate information shoehorned (badly) into the song. I chose the blogging song (hear the finished version here) which features such great lyrics as: I wonder what I m gonna blog about today There s so many words to choose from I wanna spread some news straight your way You know I d like to spark a conversation I just wanna blog my thoughts today (Blog Name) I m just gonna blog for you today (Blog Name) After reading won t you post a comment for sure I hope the topics were helpful Give me a Digg and you ll get plenty more Please make sure that you check our site out Intuit might have been better off getting some lyrical help from another 80s icon like Weird Al.

3 Strategies Small Businesses Can Use to Gain an Advantage in Bad Times
from Bigg Success July 24, 2008
A recent study by Intuit, the software giant behind QuickBooks, Quicken, and TurboTax, found that three-fourths of small business owners expect to grow this year, in spite of all the talk about a recession, corporate layoffs, and consumers cutting back. Now, it s probably safe to say that small business owners are a relatively optimistic group. Part of their optimism, though, comes from that fact that two-thirds of the people surveyed said they had survived a recession before. They ve done it by putting their customers first and focusing on their finances. . When I first started studying entrepreneurship, my perception was that large companies created the jobs. Our colleges train us to work in bigg business. It s true that large companies tend to hire a lot of people during boom times, as do small companies. But during tough economic times, large companies cut back. Interestingly, small companies tend to pretty much hold their own. . If you re keeping an eye on the news, you see that a lot of large companies are cutting marketing and even customer service. They re cutting jobs and even entire departments. They re streamlining. . As numerous studies have shown, the net effect of this is that, over the course of the business cycle, almost all new jobs come from small businesses. Opportunities created by large businesses for small businesses in bad times As large companies make cuts, astute small businesses can gain an advantage by using any or all of the following three strategies: #1 Turn bigg companies into your customers. They re reviewing their operations. If what they cut is what you do it s your service market to them! They may still need that service in some capacity take advantage of it! #2 Recruit their talent A lot of the people they re laying off are very talented. These are people that you may have never been able to get before. Recruit that talent. Provide them with a nice place to fall. They may look for something more stable or some place where they feel more of a sense of ownership. Your business could be the answer they re looking for! #3 Go after the large company s small customers. With the cuts they re making, they have few resources to take care of their customers. It s the old 80/20 rule they re likely to super-serve the 20% of their customers that constitute 80% of their sales. Then they may cut back on service for all the rest. Go after these customers that are facing reduced service. They may be a small account to a large company, but they may be one of your biggest customers! Subscribe to The Bigg Success Show in iTunes.
