SAN DIEGO, Calif., July 17, 2008—RealTime Bookkeeping, the leading U.S. online bookkeeping services provider, today announced the RealTime Bookkeeping (RTB) 5-STAR SolutionSM for showing QuickBooks® accounting firms how to expand into profitable, state-of-the-art practices.  

 

The RTB 5-STAR Solution  is a classification tool for appraising the quality and skill levels of QuickBooks accounting and bookkeeping firms.  The solution measures a firm’s progress on a scale of 1-5 toward achieving the industry’s highest levels of development through the full utilization of completely automated QuickBooks bookkeeping processes, professional marketing programs and online professional networking services.

 

At the core of the solution is RealTimeBookkeeping.com and the RealTime Bookkeeping (RTB) SystemSM for professional bookkeepers and accounting firms nationwide. The RTB SystemSM provides firms with a reliable solution for increasing billings and reducing costs.

 

In the RTB 5-STAR SolutionSM, a Single Star denotes firms that serve QuickBooks clients in a hosted accounting environment.  Two Stars denote use of the RealTime Bookkeeping (RTB) SystemSM.  Three Stars denote use of an RTB website and RTB promotional marketing materials (e.g., brochures, flyers, etc.).  Four Stars denote use of RTB QuickBooks outsourced bookkeeping services, provided by bookkeepers either offshore or U.S.-based.  Five Stars denote training in the RTB System at RTB University, and participation in the RTB e-Community—an online professional network of services, Internet forums, blogs and other social Web applications.  Five Stars include business coaching, advising and mentoring by RTB senior management staff.

Five-Star ranking is a common rating tool used in areas like music downloads, hotels and restaurants.  And it’s effective—people know that a One Star is entry-level and a Five Star is the best.  Now, bookkeeping and accounting practices can use the RTB 5-STAR SolutionSM as a step-by-step blueprint for becoming state-of-the-art QuickBooks accounting firms—that is, Five-Stars.”
