Controller/CFO Consultants
The Situation
• Prior to the establishment of a business preliminary financial work is required either to secure investors or bank financing.
• As the business grows, so does the complexity of the business. More decisions require more analysis. There are increasing fixed and variable cost considerations and cash flow becomes more important to understand and manage.

The Situation continued
• Owners of small and medium size businesses primarily rely on their accountants to answer questions regarding their financial health. This type of advisor is reactionary, i.e. answering questions when asked and based on history.
• Day-to-day operation of the business is coordinated by the owner; while the day-to-day payment processing is effected by the office staff.

Please Ask Yourself…
• As a business owner, do you know –
• How much revenue your company should earn this quarter?
• If your goals are not being attained, do you know why?
• What investments do you need to make in the next twelve months? Will these investments be paid through pre-tax profit earned, new investors or debt financing?
• Does your accounting back-office contain any risk, that could be minimized?
• Are processes within your office optimal to maximize growth and/or reduce expenses?
• How do you measure success?
