(Pleasanton, Calif., October 3,
2014) --- Accounting
expert and local Bay Area resident Doug Sleeter has received national acclaim
from major industry players after being named as one of 100 most influential
people in accounting by "Accounting
Today", an honor which he has consecutively held for the past seven
years in a row.
"I
am humbled to be acknowledged in this amazing list of thought leaders and
experts in the world of accounting and finance," said Sleeter. "For
me, accounting has always been about more than just the numbers; it's about the
business. I'm always seeking out new software, technology and strategies which
will help our members really grow into valued consultants."
As an evangelist for Adobe and Apple in the 1980s, Doug drove
success of desktop publishing solutions on the Macintosh. Since then, he has
built his own business, the Sleeter Group, into a world leader in consulting
services for small businesses and software developers.
Doug believes that his locale has positively contributed to
his success by allowing him to interact with start-up's, executives from Fortune
500 technology companies, and many others who are disrupting the traditional
marketplace.
"The Bay Area celebrates innovation more than
any other area I've seen," said Sleeter. "The culture here just
encourages individuals and business to take risks and be bold."
Doug, a proud alumni of UC Santa Cruz, was also recently
tapped as a judge for the Small Business Influencer Awards, as a keynote
speaker for the Intuit QB Connect conference, and also leads all the content
and strategy for Solutions14, the Sleeter Group's annual Accounting Solutions
Conference which takes place November 9-12 in Las Vegas.
Along with being the publisher of the wildly popular QuickBooks and
Beyond blog, Doug has authored
numerous books and pens a regular column for CPA Practice Advisor.
