Drowning in spreadsheets

Is there ANYTHING I can use besides QuickBooks for my financials? The more I use QB, the more disgusted I become! HELP!

Sounds like you're drowning in spreadsheets. Don’t let QuickBooks slow you down, and stop paying for multiple systems that don’t give you the information you need when you need it. It’s time to upgrade to NetSuite by Oracle, the world’s No. 1 cloud business system.

NetSuite gives you visibility and control over your financials, HR, inventory, e-commerce and more — all in one place — instantaneously.

Want to check it out? Let NetSuite show you how they’ll benefit your business with a free product tour at NetSuite.com/Kim.

Sick of this old printer

My old printer just isn't cutting it. I tried to print out a few photos, and they looked awful. Help me upgrade!

Epson EcoTank printers offer the perfect mix of performance and reliability, and you can finally ditch expensive ink cartridges. These printers come with a ridiculous amount of ink — enough to print 6,000 colored pages. Plus, the printing quality is great. You'll be able to print photos nice enough to display in your home.

Add the Epson EcoTank to your online shopping list at Amazon, Dell, MicroCenter or at epsonecotank.com/kim.

Finding reliable pros

What's a safe way to find someone to work on a project at my house? I heard you mention an app you like. I don't want to waste money on bad work.

You've come to the right place. Spotting scams is harder than ever, and you can't trust Google results or many of the apps and sites out there that list home pros.

I've been using Angi, a sponsor of my national radio show, and I can't get over how easy it is to find the right person for any projects. You can search through thousands of qualified pros right there in the app and read through real reviews left by real users. I used it to find a new landscaper, and I couldn't be happier.

To try it yourself, download the Angi app.

Upgrade to the printer that saves you a ton on ink costs

Does your printer have enough ink for another year of work reports, tax forms and homework? If you print a lot or wish you could print a lot without worrying about ink, it’s important to have the right printer.

Epson is changing the game with its cartridge-free EcoTank printers that have supersized easy-to-fill ink tanks and come with a ridiculous amount of ink — enough to print thousands of pages! EcoTank makes it easy, so make the switch today.

Add EcoTank to your online shopping list at Target, Walmart and at Epson.com/EcoTankKim. →
