You know, strategically, there are 20 00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:53,520 Speaker 3: three big things really that we've declared. You know, one 21 00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:58,560 Speaker 3: is shifting from building workflows where customers do the work 22 00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:02,560 Speaker 3: to get to their financial outcomes to workflows where we 23 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:05,920 Speaker 3: do the work for our customers. The second element is 24 00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:11,119 Speaker 3: that embedding AI powered experts human experts within every workflow 25 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:14,319 Speaker 3: so that there's never a dead end for customers. When 26 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:16,720 Speaker 3: there's a dead end with the technology doing the work, 27 00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:19,880 Speaker 3: are experts that actually sit on our data on AI 28 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:24,400 Speaker 3: platform can be the assistant for consumers and small businesses. 29 00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 2: And third, to take our game to the mid market and. 30 00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:31,039 Speaker 3: Small enterprises and really serve our customers in ways that 31 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:35,160 Speaker 3: they could never imagine possible. Specifically, what we announced today 32 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 3: on our Intuit mailchip platform is what we call revenue intelligence. 33 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 3: You know, one of the things that small businesses care 34 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:48,040 Speaker 3: about most is revenue growth and profitability growth, and within 35 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:51,680 Speaker 3: that their cash flow matters a lot. And so revenue 36 00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:56,040 Speaker 3: intelligence does something remarkable. It leverages all of our customers 37 00:01:56,200 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 3: data across Mailchimp and QuickBooks an essence helps them with 38 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:03,400 Speaker 3: understanding how they can drive customer and revenue growth. 39 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:04,920 Speaker 2: So imagine Swan. 40 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 1: I'm I'm just going to think about imagining as a 41 00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 1: consumer here though, because I can see how this might 42 00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:13,240 Speaker 1: be music to marketis is, But me as a consumer, 43 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:16,760 Speaker 1: do I want more SMSs. Do I want more emails? 44 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 1: Do I want more marketing heading my way? 45 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,520 Speaker 3: Well, if I finish the thought around this small business 46 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:25,680 Speaker 3: and the impact that we'll have to the consumer. In essence, 47 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:28,680 Speaker 3: the small business can understand which customers they have an 48 00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 3: opportunity to provide more services to where they can drive 49 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:37,240 Speaker 3: more benefits and profitability. And for a consumer, let's use 50 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,120 Speaker 3: a couch as an example, or new chairs as an example, 51 00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:42,119 Speaker 3: as a furniture store that you just came out with. 52 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 3: As a consumer of those devices or those couches or chairs, 53 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:49,240 Speaker 3: I have an opportunity to know what's available, and I 54 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 3: have an opportunity to know where I can modernize my house. 55 00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 3: And so from a consumer perspective, the benefit is significant 56 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,919 Speaker 3: and consumers actually believe it or not. Ninety five percent 57 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:04,400 Speaker 3: of consumers love to digest SMSs because they're short, they're sweet, 58 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 3: and to the point, and it has an enormous impact 59 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:10,880 Speaker 3: for consumers and a big impact for small businesses. And ultimately, 60 00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 3: to answer your question, the more we can help drive 61 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 3: revenue and profitability growth for small businesses, the more we 62 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 3: have the capability to monetize and be able to drive 63 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 3: growth into it. So we're very excited about what we 64 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 3: launched today. 65 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 4: So Son, I want to talk about the turbo tax 66 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:28,640 Speaker 4: business because you've spoken recently about the idea of looking 67 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:32,359 Speaker 4: for more customers who actually use human accountants to adopt 68 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 4: TurboTax and not use those accounts anymore. Forgive me for 69 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:37,880 Speaker 4: getting personal here, but there's a reason I'm asking this question. 70 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 4: I would imagine you have a very very complicated tax 71 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 4: situation as the president and CEO of this company. Do 72 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 4: you use turbo tax for your taxes? 73 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 3: Great question. First, let me start with answering your first question. 74 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:54,120 Speaker 3: Then I'll answer your question about myself. You know, first 75 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 3: and foremost, there's a thirty five billion dollars total addressable market, 76 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:03,120 Speaker 3: and of that thirty five billion, thirty billion is consumers 77 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 3: and small businesses that actually go to somebody else to 78 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,120 Speaker 3: have their taxes done. And that's really where we've built 79 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 3: out the platform, where it sits on a data and 80 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 3: AI platform where we can do your taxes for you. 81 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 3: From a governance perspective, I do not use turbo tax 82 00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:19,279 Speaker 3: because it's important from a governance perspective that somebody else 83 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 3: does my taxes for me outside of our platform. So 84 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:24,160 Speaker 3: that's the reason why don't. I would okay to do 85 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 3: it because we have great experts. 86 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 4: What I was going to say is, do you ever 87 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:30,359 Speaker 4: picture a time where somebody with as complicated a tax 88 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:33,919 Speaker 4: picture as the executive a publicly traded company can only 89 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 4: use a product like TurboTax for their taxes? Does that 90 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:37,679 Speaker 4: day common? 91 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:40,599 Speaker 2: If? Yes? When?
