Where your business is.
Where it's going.
What to do next.

We help small and midsize businesses turn disconnected data into decisions through analytics, automation and ongoing business insight.

What do we do?

Where your business is

We bring the data from the systems and spreadsheets your team relies on into one place. We clean and reconcile it so every number means the same thing wherever it appears.

Why it mattersYour team works from one reconciled set of numbers and stops rebuilding the same report every month.

Profit by type of work, last 12 monthsSample data

Overtime turns rush jobs into a loss.

Where it's going

We forecast from your own history to show where revenue, costs and cash are heading. We set that against public data on your market, so you can separate your own performance from the market's.

Why it mattersYou see a slow month coming while there is still time to act.

Cash on hand, weeklySample data

The forecast dips below your cushion in nine weeks.

What to do next

Each month we identify the two or three actions that matter most and explain the reasoning behind each. Then we review them with you.

Why it mattersEvery month closes with decisions you can act on, each supported by your own numbers.

October memoSample data
  1. Follow up on the 14 quotes you sent in the last two weeks

    Together they are worth about $38,000. Most of this year's wins closed within a month of the quote.

  2. Reprice service calls

    Service calls earn 9 points less margin than installs for the same crew hours.

  3. Contact six customers who have stopped ordering

    Each ordered monthly last year and has not ordered since June.

What you get

You gain the expertise of an analyst, a data engineer and a reporting manager without adding three people to your payroll.

  • One home for your data

    We set up one account in your company's name to hold your data, then manage it day to day.

  • Live reports

    We build them in your branding around the few numbers that run your business. They refresh automatically, so no one rebuilds them by hand.

  • Monthly memo

    You receive a concise written analysis of where you stand, what changed and what we recommend. We discuss it with you at a meeting each month.

  • Quarterly review

    Every quarter we measure progress against your goals and set priorities for the quarter ahead.

  • Portal access

    Your team opens its reports in one portal, where each person has their own sign in.

  • Ongoing advisory

    When a significant decision arises between meetings, we work through the numbers with you before you commit.

What you can rely on

We hold our work to these standards and review our safeguards with you before we load any of your data.

  • We test the numbers before you use them

    Before we build anything, we review your data. We test the work as we build and ask you to review it twice before we finish, at the halfway point and at eighty percent.

  • Every recommendation shows its reasoning

    Each month's memo explains the reasoning behind each recommendation and the figures that support it. Every quarter we measure progress against the goals you have set.

  • Only your team sees your reports

    We keep each client's data apart from every other client's and confirm a person's access before any report loads. Every sign in asks for that person's own password, then a one time code we send by email or text.

  • You own your data

    Your data lives in an account in your company's own name, where you keep owner access. If you ever leave, the data stays with you.

Getting started

Every engagement begins with a conversation about your business and the questions you need your numbers to answer.
