2012 - Some of the recent QuickBooks Clients that I have had the pleasure of training and consulting for, in Canada (the Greater Vancouver area; Calgary, AB; Keswick, ON), and in the U.S. (Los Angeles, CA; Fort Wayne, IN, Ypsilanti, MI). The U.S. were all virtual training/consulting and many of the Canadian client’s also.
Verbum Domini Apostolate – http://www.verbumdomini.us – QB’s virtual consulting. Customer’s question – how to generate recurring Invoices.

I’m as close as your computer.
