Our love for Food and Bev Brands seems to have no end! We work with clients who we believe in deeply, and, in doing so, we treat each brand as if it were our own. From financial management to distribution strategy all the way to bookkeeping and deduction management, we offer a knowledge base that gives our clients the tools to make informed decisions and plan their futures with confidence. My passion and experience lies in the challenge of creating tools to make and continually improve their financial decision making. To do this, I work with clients on building financial models which continually track their margins across all sales channels, build account maps that are focused on their revenue goals, develop sales projections that include the many hidden costs of growth, and monitor cash flow and capital needs projections to ready themselves for scaling and funding. Beyond this, I have experience and expertise in accounting, including building a chart of accounts, AP and AR, monthly reconciliation, and report building. My goal is to have a detailed understanding of the fine details of my client's financials so that I can build accurate, useful models which allow for timely, effective decision making. My highest priority with all clients is to work with them to continually adjust the path to financial success. Whatever that means to them.
