What attracted you
to FocusCFO?

I've been the owner of a business and understand the challenges of operating with limited resources. Assisting other business owners get a firm grasp on their finance operation and developing processes to simplify that operation while generating better information to run the business is what I do. I think FocusCFO provides a great framework to deliver those services to clients.
