Paul Jackson says in many ways what Method enables people to do is, get a custom solution as if they actually paid a programmer to create an application for them, their dream application, but they can actually do this themselves by just having a bit of imagination and some time, they can create whatever business process they like.

Early on, they decided focus on QuickBooks users and per Paul they are now the favorite CRM App on the Intuit website with over 350 reviews and a 5 star rating.  With QuickBooks accounting system on the back-end and Method on the front-end there is totally simplified integration.  They have a real-time sync with QuickBooks, with immediate sync.

The Field Services and Professional Services platforms sit on top of the MethodCRM application and extend the user experience to offer many more features such as scheduling jobs, workflow, time entry/billing, job costing, and much more.

They’ve created a community of other developers who make apps on Method.  Paul gives an example of the Saasphalt App. where the developer created an App and has listed the App on the MethodCRM website for others to utilize.  Time entry and job costing are a great benefit in the Method platform.  They use the time tracker in their own company.

Paul gives recommendations for business owner’s who are wanting to build their business.   Listen to the podcast to hear more, and be sure to SUBSCRIBE to iTunes CRM-etc.com.  Hear Part 1 of the Interview with Paul Jackson.
