Intuit’s Accountant Council meets twice a year at Intuit’s Mountain View, Calif., headquarters. In existence since 2009, the purpose of council is to get feedback and insights on Intuit’s Small Business Group strategy and future product development from those who use our products every day to power prosperity for small business. Members participate for two years, sharing their thoughts and insights on critical accountant and small business tools.

“One thing I learned in my two years of being on the council is that Intuit listens to this group and to all of their customers. It was an honor to have our ideas actually inform the decision making of the various product managers and their teams,” said Joe Carufe of SystemSix and former council member.

We open the Accountant Council application process every year in January, and we receive hundreds of applications. Look for updates on when the application process opens in our newsletters, on our blog and via our social media handles: @IntuitAccts on Twitter, Intuit Accountants on Facebook, and Intuit Accountants on LinkedIn.
