Window Fashions Certified Professionals (WFCP™) and Minutes Matter today announced another phase in their continuing partnership furthering their commitment to the window covering industry. WFCP and Minutes Matter will be offering a six week Quickbooks coaching program. The Right Start program will result in participants becoming certified in Interior Design Quickbooks (IDQ). The joint effort is just in time to get a “Right Start” with your accounting as the New Year begins. The Interior Design QuickBooks (IDQ) certification is part of the new WFCP Business Strategy certification.

 The program is meant for designers, decorators and fabricators. WFCP’s Business Strategy certification was launched to meet the requests from members wanting concrete help with their businesses and to position themselves in the marketplace as not only window covering design experts, but business professionals. “We are thrilled to be adding to our library of certifications aimed at helping design professionals become more efficient and profitable, says Deb Barrett, WFCP Director. This program is offered exclusively through WFCP (Window Fashions Certification Program) and Minutes Matter. Vickie Ayres, a Certified QuickBooks Pro Advisor with Minutes Matter will be conducting the coaching sessions.“At Minutes Matter, we find that most people are barely skimming the surface of what QuickBooks can actually do for their business. When you participate in the IDQ coaching program, you’ll receive live hands-on time with an expert instructor. Each session is specifically tailored to suit your business needs.” says Debbie Green, President of Minutes Matter. “This program will provide guidance to pros that is actionable. We won’t be telling them; we will be showing them how-to get their business and financial house off to a right start,” Ayres adds.

 As leaders in the window covering industry, WFCP and Minutes Matter are dedicated to offering tools to design professionals to thrive in 2010; not just survive.

 The IDQ system is simple.  During the sessions, participants will actually create a new company, enter multiple type transactions and generate reports to determine profitability per job as well as the company’s net profit. The six week program consists of:

  • Weekly Group Coaching Lesson Online (1.5 hrs) with live Q&A
  • Weekly  one hour private online coaching session
  • Weekly email follow-up about lesson/ project progress
  • 12 month FREE Email support
  • 12 month FREE QuickBooks support on the WFCP QuickBooks Coaching Program Forum
  • Right Start Coaching Manual
  • QuickBooks year end “Tune-up Appointment”

 The Lesson Plan Lineup includes:

  • QuickBooks New Company Setup Fresh Starts
