BOOMER GETS XERO MVP AWARD Featured

Gary BoomerVeteran CPA consultant Gary Boomer has been chosen as MVP by online accounting software vendor Xero. And if we need proof that the head of Boomer Consulting is all-in with the New Zealand-based Internet software company, it came this week as Xero handed out awards at Xerocon, the first edition of that show in the United States. Boomer is also a member of Xero's Advisory Council, as is Doug Sleeter of the Sleeter Group.

Moreover, in accepting the award, Boomer said he would do anything he could to help the company in its expansion in this country. In describing the Xero application, Boomer said, "This is something that is going to change the accounting profession in the United States." Xero is doing a good job in enlisting the CPA profession's bell cows. Also present at the awards dinner was Jim Bourke, a partner with Red Bank, N.J.-based WithumSmith+Brown. Bourke's firm also carries Intacct, but he said that Xero represents a bigger potential market. His firm is working to persuade its QuickBooks clients to switch to Xero. Also present were David Cieslak and Bob Gaby, partners in the influential reselling firm, Arxis Technology. Cieslak said his firm is considering Xero but has not made a decision.
