Hey Devs,
If you’ve been keeping up with my articles, you’ll know that I’ve been focused mostly on helping your integration by providing samples and tips. But what happens after you’ve completed your integration? What do you do then? How do you make your app successful? This and more will be covered at a panel I’ll be hosting with my colleague Matt Kanas at this year’s QuickBooks Connect in San Jose (November 15-17).
