Why Become a QuickBooks Live Expert?

Intuit is hiring remote bookkeepers and accountants in all areas of California, like San Francisco and LA! Apply Now!


There are a number of benefits to becoming an accountant. The first is that there always will be a need for accountants. As enterprises expand and develop, they will require someone to maintain accounting records. There is a lot of demand for accountants and bookkeepers alike, and it's unlikely to change in the near future. If you enjoy numbers and facts, enjoy working with numbers, and have the discipline to focus, bookkeeping may be the job for you. As a financial professional, one of your responsibilities is to prioritize tasks from most essential to least essential. Before moving on to another situation, it's critical to be able to concentrate on one issue at a time.

Another great advantage of these types of jobs is that the required abilities are relatively easy to learn. If you have math and accounting knowledge, you should be able to learn the rest of what you need to know on the job or through online classes. This makes it an ideal profession for people who want to work from home or begin their accounting journey.

With your credentials, working as a Live Expert lets you: 

  • Earn more money. 
  • Service more customers from a wider range of industries, increasing your skill level. 
  • Work a flexible work schedule. 
  • Tackle new challenges daily. 
  • Work part-time or entry level.
