I am a results-driven, bottom-line focused finance & business consultant with a proven track record of driving growth, increasing profitability, and significantly improving business performance. With a diverse background as an entrepreneur, business owner, and professional advisor, I bring practical, hands-on experience across businesses of all sizes and industries. WHAT MAKES ME DIFFERENT While traditional bookkeepers, accountants and CFOs focus on compliance and reporting, I understand how to relate all that financial data to what's actually going on in your business. I have deep expertise in transforming data into the financial intelligence you need to run, manage, and grow your business. I translate your financials into strategic insights that can answer critical questions like: • Which parts of my business are actually profitable (and which ones aren't)? • What revenue or profit opportunities am I missing? • What financial trends should be driving my next strategic decision? • Which business performance metrics (KPI's) should I be looking at? • How can I optimize cash flow to meet my monthly needs and fuel growth? STRATEGIC CFO SERVICES • Financial management (budgeting, analysis, etc.) • Cash flow forecasting & management • Financial planning & budgeting • Performance benchmarking & variance analysis • Pricing strategies • Financing & Lender Management TYPICAL ENGAGEMENT RESULTS • Increases in Profitability: Average 7-10% improvement in profit margins through financial and business insights. • Improved Business Decisions: Clients have reduced costs and identified revenue opportunities 75% of the time through dashboards • Better Cash Management: Clients gain 60-90 days of cash flow visibility • Strategic Clarity: Transform monthly "financial mystery" into clear roadmap for growth
