Are multi-entity businesses outgrowing Xero, or is there still untapped potential in this small-biz favourite? In this episode, we dive into the complexities of managing multiple entities on Xero, from restaurant chains to pharmacy networks and so much more. Amy and Ajack explore how firms can keep clients engaged with strategic support that prevents the potential shift to in-house teams.

Sure, juggling multiple Xero files comes with its headaches—user permissions, code consistency, and those pesky operational snags. But don’t hit the ERP panic button just yet! We’ll explore clever solutions like third-party consolidation tools and share real-world examples where businesses have stretched Xero’s capabilities to impressive lengths.

When is it time to outgrow Xero and graduate to ERP systems like NetSuite? We unpack the “three E’s” every business should follow: explore, exploit, and exhaust Xero’s ecosystem before taking the costly leap. With insights from Amy and Jack, we’ll reveal how to make Xero work smarter, ensuring clients stick with you while you elevate your service game.

So come on, join the accounting tech adventure with them!
