@NickHaschka Thanks for providing your feedback regarding more features to the QBO Payroll Platform. Our engineers are always looking for ways to improve the product. In the meantime, check out our blog where new features are announced: intuit.me/3CdcYkv. All the best! ^Kyle
Always defer some portion of the purchase price via a holdback, seller note, earnout, etc. I can't tell you how many times I've seen a seller do something shady post Closing where if you didn't hold some portion of the purchase price back, there would be almost no easy recourse.

Furious that @GustoHQ continues to send marketing emails (for things like TurboTax) to my employees after repeatedly contacting support. Someone is asleep at the wheel over there. Can anyone help???
@NickHaschka @tomerlondon @girdley Yes... it's time.
@NickHaschka Interesting, just sent ours in. Looking to refi our current loan and hopefully move to a more friendly lender. Our has been a huge pain with any requests.
@NickHaschka @tomerlondon @girdley I hate companies that abuse customer data. Opting people into anything without their consent (or that od their enployers) is crap. Agree we all need to collectively put pressure on them to stop this shit.
@NickHaschka @GustoHQ This hit me today and REALLY pissed me off. Thinking about switching away from Gusto, we've had major problems with their health insurance integration recently too.
@NickHaschka Fair argument. I’ve used it most in some recent correspondence with my City government where my goal was to communicate very clearly and without emotion.
@NickHaschka I see this as true for a segment of SMB owners. Others will gladly pay for outsourced SaaS. Many others will see the opportunity & build themselves into a technical debt nightmare. The trick is knowing which one you are… I do expect open APIs to be a SaaS ticket to play now 🎉
@NickHaschka @GustoHQ It sucks because your team thinks you sold their information or something…
Acquisition #1 is the hardest to pull off and you might have to ‘overpay’ but then everything changes.
@NickHaschka @marketplunger1 @Slackwatercap @cappaert @tsludwig @bentigg @RegZeller @aebridgeman @girdley 1. What is their strategy for native integrations w/ other platforms (CRM, payments, field ops, etc)? 2. (A) TRUST - stop making new products the default to drive usage (e.g. AR financing), deliver value to convert. (B) Automations + natural interaction w/ data (e.g. chat query)
