At Intuit, our mission is to power prosperity around the world. This is why we’re committed to finding new ways to help app developers grow their business while providing them with the best tools and support to create innovative applications to meet the needs of small to medium-sized companies as well as accountants.
Today we’re excited to announce that after the successful pilot of the Developer Growth Program, we are fully launching the program with 5 QuickBooks app developers that make up our new fall cohort. The program is designed to help app developers succeed with more than 5.9 million small businesses around the world that run on the QuickBooks Online platform. Our objectives for the program include helping developers maximize their marketing impact, connect with more customers, and increase their app revenue.
The fall cohort is participating in the program for the next five months and each developer will work closely with the Intuit Developer group to identify and test growth opportunities. During that time, the cohort will have access to an exclusive network of accountants, UX experts, solution architects, and go-to-market managers, as well as the opportunity to gain increased visibility within our QuickBooks and developer communities. They’ll also have the opportunity to become members of the Intuit Developer Council after they “graduate”.
