At a time of decreasing bottom lines and increasing concern about where every dollar
goes, IAC-EZ makes it easier for small business-owners and freelancers to spend less
money on their bookkeeping and more time on their business. Just introduced, IAC-EZ is
the ultimate online bookkeeping tool for people who hate numbers, know nothing about
accounting and still want an accurate, efficient way to keep track of their business
records.
goes, IAC-EZ makes it easier for small business-owners and freelancers to spend less
money on their bookkeeping and more time on their business. Just introduced, IAC-EZ is
the ultimate online bookkeeping tool for people who hate numbers, know nothing about
accounting and still want an accurate, efficient way to keep track of their business
records.
IAC-EZ is aimed primarily at the millions - and rapidly growing number - of independent contractors, freelancers and businesses with 5 or fewer employees, who on average, spend between $200 and $800 month for bookkeeping services. At $19.95 a month, IAC-EZ represents a significant savings. Think of it as a bailout for cottage businesses.
"These days, it's hard enough to turn a profit," says Villa, the CEO of IAC Professionals, an online source for accounting, tax and administrative services. "The economic downturn is driving more and more people into business for themselves. So I developed a web-based application that is extremely straightforward and allows self-employed individuals and small-business owners to manage their own books without having to struggle, spend money or learn complex skills."
In addition to simplicity, IAC-EZ offers subscribers a multitude of benefits. With this virtual bookkeeper, it's unnecessary to turn over reams of information. Once entered, data is stored in IAC-EZ's secure servers but easily accessible for users. The program is customizable for any business, with the ability to delete unneeded account categories, generate reports that clearly show what's coming in and going out and make better sense of the impact of revenues and expenses.
A core feature of IAC-EZ is the ability to import business data with FreshBooks, an easy-to-
use online invoicing, time and expense tracking service. As a long time user, Villa saw the value in choosing FreshBooks as IAC-EZ's first integration. Invoices, expenses and clients from FreshBooks synchronize with IAC-EZ in just minutes for simpler bookkeeping. There is no longer a need to enter data twice. Together, IAZ-EZ and FreshBooks let you focus on your work, not your paperwork.
There's no complex pricing plan, no contract, no setup fees and subscribers can cancel at any time. Support is just a click or a call away. And, with April 15th looming, subscribing to IAC-EZ means more accurate tax estimates and easier tax preparation.
Initially sparked by a desire to help her own clients, Villa found her test efforts received phenomenal results with some 3000 people signing up before the total package was even finished. Villa worked with Cory Becker of Becker Web Solutions, LLC and programmers Mike Gunderloy and Dana Jones of the Lark Group, Inc., to come up with a site and an application that is unintimidating yet practical.
A firm believer that helping others helps everyone prosper, Villa plans to donate $1 per new subscriber every month to a designated charity that will be listed on the IAC-EZ site. The charities under consideration include Locks of Love, the American Cancer Society and the Multiple Sclerosis Foundation. "My goal is to establish ongoing relationships with a variety of worthy causes," says Villa. "By having a link on our website, we hope we can also raise awareness about the important work of these charitable organizations."
