Sandi Smith Leyva and I are thrilled that many of you have already registered for our First Annual Accounting vCon. We also hope you enjoyed our complimentary sneak preview call, “11 Ways to Accelerate Your Success in the Cloud,” and we wanted to be sure to remind you that tomorrow, AUGUST 31, is the deadline for the Early Early Bird price that saves you over 50%.

There were so many great comments and questions from all of you on the webinar. We’re continuing the momentum by opening up our Community Forum this week: You’ll have two full months to connect with peers and exhibitors, download materials, and post your questions on the discussion boards, even before we start the vCon.
The vCon is right for those of you who are looking for fresh ideas to grow your accounting business, practical sessions to update your accounting software skills, and fun ways to connect with peers, all on a shoestring budget (and that doesn’t take you too far from home). 
It’s a 2-day virtual conference designed to help you:
- Learn how to monetize cloud technologies and other practice solutions.
- Update your marketing, technology, and customer service skills and earn 12 hours of CPE.
- Virtually “meet” peers, share best practices and ideas, and win cool prizes.
- Gain the confidence, skills, and tools to serve your clients better and get rewarded in the process
- Save airline and hotel costs, stay cozy at home, and still get live access to great training and accounting industry thought leaders.
