Use QuickBooks Online to simplify and streamline your bookkeeping tasks. Partner with Heritage Business Services, a QuickBooks ADVANCED ProAdvisor, for further support.
One of the most basic choices a business owner needs to make is what bookkeeping software to use in their business. As a QuickBooks Online Advanced ProAdvisor, Heritage Business Services typically recommends QuickBooks Online as the preferred bookkeeping software solution.

Which Version of QuickBooks Online Should You Choose
When you realize you would much rather go make more money instead of wrestling with your bookkeeping software, I recommend partering with a QuickBooks Online ADVANCED ProAdvisor like myself to ensure your bookkeeper has the highest level of competence in your bookkeeping software. However, if you aren’t willing or able to outsource this non-money-making task, you will need to choose which level of QuickBooks Online to subscribe to.
There are 4 levels of QuickBooks Online that you can choose from. As an participate in the Intuit referral program, we can offer 50% off to any small business owner who wants to purchase a QuickBooks Online subscription.
Each subscription level comes with at least 2 additional “Accountant Users” where you can invite service providers like Heritage Business Services to support your business by granting them access to your QuickBooks file. This “Accountant User” concept is the foundation of how Heritage Business Services serves clients.
Most small businesses will have more than enough accounting software power with the lower three tiers of QuickBooks Online.
Heritage Business Services can advise on which subscription level is right for your business and also provide QuickBooks Online account set up and training for the scrappy and smart entrepreneur who wants to handle their accounting on their own.
NOTE: There is an application that Intuit sells called QuickBooks Online Self Employed. I recommend NEVER opting for QuickBooks Online Self Employed for the following reasons:
- It is not a real accounting software. It is just an transaction tracking application not based on accounting fundamentals.
- It is based on the premise that you will have personal and business expenses mixed together, which is not how a serious business owner operates his/her business.
- Because it is not build on real accounting concepts, you cannot upgrade from QBSE when your business grows.
