"I am an advocate of outsourcing and have AcuityCFO as proof that it works. The access to a variety of talented skills and expertise to fit our company's needs as they change, at an effective cost, allows us to focus on our core competencies. The reliability, accuracy and flexibility of AcuityCFO make it an easy decision."
Tricia Dempsey, CEO, Agile Resources
"AcuityCFO was critical to getting us ready for our first audit, helping us to close out our year, preparing the necessary reconciliations and schedules for the accounting firm, preparing draft financial statements and footnotes, and managing the process. Not only did they assist us in achieving a successful audit, but they also helped us hire a fulltime controller who is now able to handle our accounting responsibilities."
Joan Herbig, CEO, ControlScan
"We’ve always used a one-year budgeting plan in our business, and believe strongly in alignment with employee’s goals and a company’s financial performance. In structuring our longer-term strategic and financial goals, we engaged the services of AcuityCFO to help us determine the viability of our budgeting process. In working with Judi, we established a four-year bottoms-up budget using Acuity CFO’s financial model as a basis. Through this process, we worked with Judi on several financial budgeting models which will help us with critical decisions surrounding personnel, management, sales & marketing, and G&A expenses. UTG now has solid financial models and process in place, along with tools we can use on a go forward basis. However, what’s been most impressive about working with Judi is how engaged she is with us. Judi knows a lot of folks and works to connect our company to other businesses, when and where it makes sense. It’s nice to have Acuity CFO as a valued partner.”
Brian Miller, COO, United Technology Group
"AMB Group needed a long range forecasting model that was robust enough to consolidate multiple-entity financial statements and flexible enough to easily incorporate changes in assumptions. AcuityCFO was referred to us, and when we saw the accounting backgrounds of the principals, combined with previous financial models they had developed, we were confident they could deliver a good product. They took the time to understand the requirements we had and even made some suggestions for improvements during the process. The AcuityCFO team also regularly provided us with updates so we had the opportunity to make changes as necessary. We received the product we asked for and on a timely basis. We're happy with the results and wouldn't hesitate to use AcuityCFO again."
Gregg Vickery, VP-Controller, AMB Group, LLC
"Over the last five years, Spanx has grown at an incredible pace. We have been challenged to keep our internal infrastructure moving at the same rate and to find unique ways to maintain a high-performance team. Hiring AcuityCFO has helped us to meet those goals. AcuityCFO was contracted initially to assist in a search for a full-time Controller, but their role expanded with our needs. After our Controller was hired, they worked with us to implement a core ERP system, design financial policies and procedures, and prepare for our accounting firm audit. Throughout the engagement, AcuityCFO was enjoyable to work with and extremely flexible. They did a great job of setting their onsite hours to meet the needs of Spanx, and I had the security of knowing that I could call on them at anytime. I was particularly impressed with their team approach. Their ability to integrate smoothly with our team and company culture augmented our executive and day-to-day accounting resources. As a result, AcuityCFO enabled us to address each of the needs created by our rapid growth, and made our team stronger than ever."
Laurie Ann Goldman, CEO, Spanx
"When AcuityCFO began working with us, we were in great need of someone who could provide financial guidance and implement sound processes and controls for a young, high-growth company. They immediately added value by giving us visibility into trends and business developments to which we did not previously have access. As our business has grown, AcuityCFO has been instrumental in providing the foundation for that growth, and they have positioned us well for future opportunities."
Wilson Borden, CEO, Georgia Erosion Control Center
"I initially contracted AcuityCFO because their high competency skill set fit the needs of my business. In almost a year since that time, they have proven their organization to be a reliable and affordable resource that enables small or medium sized companies, like mine, to focus on running the business rather than accounting for the business."
Travis Lewis, CEO, Technology Vendor Management
"Kool Smiles is a fast-growing company. As we built our in-house finance team, we urgently needed an experienced CFO in place to manage our transition from out-sourced services. AcuityCFO filled that need (and exceeded our expectations) while we completed a successful CFO search, and then provided expert assistance in seamlessly transitioning a full-time finance team. We have continued to rely on their work through ongoing special projects, and expect our relationship to continue well into the future."
Doug Brown, Chairman, Kool Smiles
"I've known Stewart Brooks a long time and have a high level of trust in the professionalism of AcuityCFO. They provide timely and affordable service, and we appreciate how diligent and proactive they are about making sure we have the most appropriate resources to meet our part-time accounting needs."
Loren Eckart, COO, ILumen
"Bank of America has supported AcuityCFO as they have grown, and we know them as a company of high integrity and competency. I would feel confident referring my clients to them because they are highly skilled, and more importantly because they are proactive in scaling their business to meet the emerging needs and best interests of their client base."
Ingrid Reckard, Vice President, Bank of America
"AcuityCFO is a pleasure to work with. They're professionals who 'get it' right away and perform well from the start. It's great to work with people who come through for you when you need it most."
Andy Vabulas, CEO, IBIS
"As a partner, AcuityCFO offers great value by bridging the gap between us, a traditional CPA firm, and our clients' in-house financial teams. We appreciate their great ability to handle finance functions because it enables us to help our clients responsively and efficiently."
David Deeter, Managing Partner, Fraizer & Deeter
"We have a strong internal finance team, but contracted with AcuityCFO to help prepare a FASB issue for our auditor and they did an efficient, solid job. US Lumber places great importance on character and personalized customer service, and we have confidence that AcuityCFO fits those core values. They clearly have our best interest in mind, responding quickly to our needs with a high degree of integrity."
Ronnie Stroud, Director of Finance, US Lumber
"AcuityCFO's ability to quickly get up to speed on our accounting practices and business environment was extremely helpful in assuring that our reporting processes and core accounting functions were completed on a timely and accurate basis. I appreciate how well the team worked with our employees. Not only were they enjoyable to work with, they conducted themselves with a high level of professionalism and integrity which gave us a great level of trust in AcuityCFO's services."
