Access the financial expertise your company needs to thrive.

When I joined AgBiome Innovations as the commercial director in 2013, Andrew was already on board as the CFO.  He proved to be a valuable asset in numerous ways during the next 6 years that I worked with him. He has excellent communication skills; always used clear concise messaging to my group regarding budgeting and financial requirements and results. Andrew is very knowledgeable of the financial reporting requirements for startups, and his interest in our business was very useful.  Andrew also assisted my team on a product and company acquisitions effort, as well as a multiple equity funding rounds.  My team was very comfortable in working with Andrew and had a tremendous amount of respect for him. Finally, Andrew makes people feel very comfortable in work situations which in turn makes them want to help him in any way possible.

Tim came on board our company at a critical time; we were wrapping up two acquisitions and kicking off a second fundraising round, and he hit the ground running. He was instrumental in helping us clean up our books and accounting processes and helped give us visibility into the KPIs that mattered most. Additionally, he helped create the financial growth model which we used in our fundraise, and he helped us successfully navigate the departure of our controller and led the process to find her replacement. Tim is a very talented CFO and the consummate professional. I highly recommend him!

We hired Kim right before we switched from QuickBooks online to NetSuite. With her guidance, we were able to make the right decisions and setup NetSuite in the most efficient way. In addition, she implemented a closing process for our accounting team, which enables us to get financials ready in a timely manner. We love her honest feedback and suggestions to make our accounting team more efficient. She understands our business!

 

Beth Mullaney is thoughtful in utilizing her network to benefit others. In the end, she can listen, identify and find a solution to a problem. Regardless of whether they be short or long term solutions, she is engaged throughout the process to ensure that everyone is happy with the outcome and that there will be a true benefit to the client. She is strategic, highlights her team, and has successfully grown the service offerings along with becoming a partner in the organization. She is a visionary that can take on implementation and execution. I am glad Beth is part of my network and someone I respect for guidance.

While operating a company experiencing significant growth the past 2 years, we recognized the need for financial expertise to confirm and assist with our daily decisions. Rankin McKenzie has a fantastic reputation, and we felt lucky to have this resource available here in the Triangle market. Through our vetting process it became obvious that RM was a good fit. We appreciated the selection process used to determine which person would be assigned to our account and could not be happier having our Rankin McKenzie Partner as our fractional CFO. Our Partner adapted to our company culture quickly and is doing a great job managing and mentoring our staff. In the past few months, our Partner has provided us with solid insight as well as created financial tools and resources to help us make better business decisions. For any small business that is transitioning to a mid-size structure, I would highly recommend RM.

By engaging Rankin McKenzie, we gained a dedicated executive who knows and is passionate about our business. As a result of Robert’s performance, he became a critical member of our management team and the company. Rankin McKenzie was a long-term member of our executive team and proved to be essential in helping our business develop and grow.

Alex has been crucial to our success and immense growth as an organization.  With Alex’s exceptional knowledge of non-profit organizations and professionalism, we did not hesitate to hire her to help us grow as a company like no one had before.  Alex is conscientious, fair, and diligent.  She has moved us from cash to accrual accounting, assisted in training staff, supported the development of detailed budgets and financial statements, participated in several hirings, and has helped us increase the timeliness of our reporting. 

 

Though we were not ready to hire a full-time CFO, we sure were glad to have the assistance of Alex Duhon every week. Alex served as CFOH’s part-time controller, keeping the numbers in line so we could continue to fly kids. We loved having her as part of our crew!

Due to an unexpected medical situation, our CFO was going to miss 2 to 6 weeks of work – with little ability to communicate with us at all.  We contacted Rankin McKenzie and within a couple of days met with Angie, and she felt like a perfect fit.  She spent a few days with our CFO and quickly got up to speed.  It was a great comfort having her take over the day to day finances for a couple of months until our CFO was able to return to work full-time.

We had the pleasure of working with Bethany Hong from Rankin McKenzie, and she was an exceptional asset to our team. Bethany quickly mastered our software, conducted thorough financial analyses, and significantly improved our overall performance. Her professionalism, friendliness, and seamless integration into our team were outstanding. Although her contract was short-term, Bethany made a lasting positive impact. We highly recommend Bethany and the excellent services provided by Rankin McKenzie.
