As we bring 2018 to a close, and shift focus to 2019, we think it's important to update our customers and business partners about the state of our company.  During a live webinar on December 11th at 11:30am ET, our CEO and Co-Founder Brian Seidel will be presenting on a variety of topics that relate to our company and the CIMcloud product. Among the many things that will be discussed, we want to focus specifically on 3 primary topics. 

Last week, Pat Scherz and Chandler Watts flew into Dallas for the MicroAccounting Client Conference.  Held in Plano, Texas in the Marriott at Town Center, the event had an excellent turnout and a perfect setup.  

CIMcloud hosted it's 4th annual Partner Huddle last week in Greenville, SC and it was a blast! This event is always a great opportunity for Sage Partners and ISV's to come together for a couple days of sharing, learning, and hanging out with friends in the space. 

CIMcloud Sales Consultant, Eric Alexander, had a busy last week as he hit the road to attend the DSD Customer Conference and the Wisconsin Sage 100 User Group Conference. Per usual, both these events provided a great opportunity to learn and share with our friends in the space.

CIMcloud was proud to be a Premier Sponsor at the SWK Empower Conference on Oct. 10^th in Greensboro, NC. The event was very well attended and showed SWK's commitment to helping their customers learn about Sage and ISV solutions to empower their business through technology. ISV's included: CIMcloud, Altec, Avalara, Avidxchange, Scanco, SAP Concur, SPS Commerce, Tangerine, Starship, VelocIT, and Workforce Go!

Google is now requiring any website using the Google Maps API to have a unique API Key for the website domain name, and are charging the account owner based on the usage of the API. This change in Google’s policy will require action on your part to continue using the map on your CIMcloud website. Continue reading for information on the impact this change in Google’s policy has on your website, and next steps for you to take.

Starting November 1, 2018, out-of-state sellers will have to start collecting and remitting North Carolina sales tax. This does not exclusively apply to North Carolina, however, as they join 23 other Streamlined Sales Tax (SST) member states. The 24 states are: Arkansas, Georgia, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, Vermont, Washington, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming.

This week marked the seventh (and final U.S.) stop of the Sage Sessions tour. On August 7^th, attendees were welcomed to Sage Sessions Seattle with hot (yes hot) weather and clear blue skies. I was happy to attend and discuss CIMcloud with others in attendance! 

We had another awesome time at Sage Sessions in New York City! Check out this recap from Chandler Watts, CIMcloud CDM.  

Last week Pat Scherz, Eric Alexander, and myself were able to attend Sage Sessions Atlanta. Between Sage employees, resellers, customers, and ISVs, there were approximately 500 people at the event. We were able to see all kinds of familiar faces, tons of old friends, and plenty of soon to be friends!
