Case Study: Potential Church achieves 50% faster monthly close, real-time multi-site visibility, and $80K annual savings with Sage Intacct

Potential Church counts its blessings after switching to Sage Intacct

Potential Church, a Southern Baptist–affiliated nonprofit in Florida with over 33 years of history and 13,000 weekly attendees across 13 locations, was outgrowing QuickBooks. Rapid expansion, manual workflows, server backups and IT overhead hampered timely reporting and put pressure on finance to be tactical rather than strategic, so the church sought a modern cloud accounting solution.

After a six-week implementation of Sage Intacct, Potential Church gained real-time consolidated financials, automated workflows and seamless integrations (Bill.com, ADP, ExpenseCloud), cutting the monthly close time by 50%, AP processing by 33% and weekly revenue recognition from five days to one (95% by Sunday). The new system enabled data-driven decisions—closing an underperforming campus, better project budgeting—and repurposing staff saved about $80,000 annually.
