CASE STUDY #3
Manufacturer of Cosmetic and Beauty Products
CFO + Controller + Accountant + Bookkeeper
The company sought to improve their financial management by seeking an Outsourced Financial Department solution, as they were dissatisfied with the performance and efficiency of their existing finance team.
RESULTS
Significant savings in personnel & HR expenses
Efficiency ratios improved significantly
Better strategic decisions since sales & COGS data became available in real time
✔ The new owners had upgraded their shopping cart to Bigcommerce & were using shipstation for fulfillment but the mapping needed to bring that information to QB online was not done properly leading to mistakes in the calculation of COGS and inventory count. We fixed the flow of information.
✔ They had different pricing tiers retail, wholesale & distributors but they were lacking a model that would allow them to adjust the price to all 3 in case the raw material cost would increase. We set up that model for them.
✔ They had a rewards system but the liabilities were not being booked into QB so we hacked a solution using Zappier to bring the information to the right place.
✔ Create systems & schedules or simply implemented best practices for inventory management.
✔ Outsourced bank & credit card reconcilliation, expense management.
✔ Improve collection of AR & help them negotiate better terms for AP.
