Method CRM customization for companies that use QuickBooks.
I help companies that use QuickBooks decide whether Method fits, build it around the way they work, and fix projects that have stalled. My strongest niche is QuickBooks Enterprise and Premier, but I also work with QuickBooks Online.
You work directly with an experienced business consultant who understands Method and QuickBooks.

Project examples
What Method can look like in a real business.
These are real systems I built for companies using Method and QuickBooks. Each one began with an ordinary business problem.
Million-Part Catalog
A wholesale distributor can quote millions of supplier parts without adding them to QuickBooks first. The sales team searches current supplier catalogs in Method, adds quote-only parts to customer quotes, and compares past margins. If the customer orders a part, Method creates it in QuickBooks Enterprise automatically.
Anyone Can Quote
A service company's pricing rules mostly lived with its owner. I built those rules into a custom Method quoting screen for five service options. Now the whole sales team can prepare accurate quotes, work toward the right margin, and move each approved quote through prepayment, sales order, and invoicing workflows.
Automatic Follow-Up
A wholesale distributor grades every estimate A, B, or C based on how promising the opportunity is. I built an automatic Method follow-up system that enrolls each estimate in the right campaign, varies the messages, and times them around the products quoted and their expected lead times. The sales team gets consistent, relevant follow-up without tracking every reminder by hand.
Order to Delivery
A shed manufacturer uses one Method workflow to follow every order from the sale through production and delivery. I built job-level tracking for manufacturing status, required parts, expected part arrival dates, quantities, and fulfillment, along with shared manufacturing and delivery calendars. Automatic delivery reminder emails keep customers informed while the sales, production, and delivery teams can all see what is happening with each order.

Good fit
Your Method project is moving too slowly, has stalled, or needs to be taken over from the Method customization team or another consultant.
You want an experienced business consultant to look at the whole problem, not just change one screen.
Your team enters the same customer or sales information more than once, or Method no longer fits the way your company works.
Method needs to exchange information with another software system through a custom two-way API connection.
Your staff can explain the problem and help test the changes.
Not what I do
Routine bookkeeping, tax, payroll, banking, legal, or financial advice.
General software work that has nothing to do with Method CRM.
Changes to accounting data without careful review, backups, and testing.
About me
I understand business and software.
I ask enough questions to become mildly annoying. It is usually
cheaper than building the wrong thing.
My background includes accounting, manufacturing, supply chain, and
business operations. I look at the business problem, Method CRM, and
QuickBooks together. I also specialize in building two-way API
connections between Method and other business software.
I work directly with you. Your questions and decisions do not pass
through a salesperson or junior technician. I work with only a few
active clients at a time, but I am always available for strategic
planning and right-fit calls.

can. It is also a useful way to hear how I explain a problem before you
