    Andrew Haines is a Sports Executive and Entrepreneur. Andrew has spent the last 20+ years helping people build businesses and has recently started a podcast to interview a variety of entrepreneur’s and key people that have also started and built businesses. Andrew’s classic refrain is to jump in and do it when it comes do following your passions. It’s easy to get hung up on all the things you don’t know, but the only way to truly learn is to do.

    In his interview, Jim says, “The key to success is knowing your strengths and weaknesses. Our whole goal is to create financial visibility.” Jim takes us back to his humble beginnings and just how NOW CFO came to be. Founded in 2005, NOW CFO is now in 31 markets spanning across 13 states and growing every day. Jim shares some of the risks and fears that he faced in the upbringing of NOW CFO.

    Jim agrees with Andrew’s refrain when Jim says, “Don’t’ be unhappy at a job.” Jim said, “It can be scary, but you must look at what will make you happy. That is a big piece of all this. It will be a great ride, and I can’t imagine doing something else the last 15 years.”

    The speed and efficiency in which NOW CFO stepped in and got us back on track was amazing and took a load of work off me. Their professionalism and responsiveness are first class, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. They are top notch across the board.

    We have been overjoyed with the talent NOW CFO brought us. We did not have the staff bandwidth and they have been the perfect fit for our growing company. We were able to find the skillsets we were looking for, and NOW CFO was able to find our unicorn.

    NOW CFO was professional, knowledgeable, and courteous. They identified payroll fraud within our company, set up controls to make sure that time stealing did not continue and was instrumental in training our new admin.

    NOW CFO has become an integral part of our management team. Since everything is cleaned up, we can move forward and look to the future instead of being stuck in the present. Would recommend them for any type of business.

    Because of the current economic climate, it is hard for us to retain staff who are capable of the accounting and CFO work that is needed. We would highly recommend using NOW CFO because of their superior service, value, and business acumen.

    From the beginning of our relationship, NOW CFO has made us feel like we are in good hands. Our former bookkeepers had created a mess and NOW CFO stepped right in and learned our software and cleaned up the mess rapidly.

    Over my 25-year entrepreneurial journey I have worked with many consultants, but they always felt like outsiders. NOW CFO is different and felt like part of our team. They rolled up their sleeves and pitched in wherever it was needed. PRICELESS!
