Access the financial expertise your company needs to thrive.

For over a decade, the consortium we were part of managed its finances internally. After bringing Todd on board, we realized there were missed opportunities we hadn’t noticed before. Thanks to Todd’s hands-on management, not only have we stopped losing money, but our returns have also improved significantly. It’s a huge relief knowing that someone with such diverse experience is handling things. Looking back, my only regret is that we didn’t make this change sooner.

Jeff is a true professional whom I trust and respect.  He draws from his vast and diverse experience to find practical and actionable solutions.  While serving as our CFO, Jeff built strong relationships throughout the company and became a trusted strategic advisor to the leadership team.  He took the financial function at MedThink to the next level, quickly identified KPIs and developed models to measure them, as well as supported the company through a successful M&A process.  I thoroughly enjoyed working with Jeff.   

We were extremely satisfied with Kim and her work. She settled in quickly and accomplished a great deal. The added bonus was that she quickly assimilated into our team and everyone enjoyed her presence. We were very pleased with the arrangement and will call your firm again should the need arise.

What drew us to Rankin and McKenzie was the ability to onboard talent like Phil Sandy in a fractional model. As a small business owner, it is always challenging to time and deploy capital effectively for new hires, particularly those in overhead positions. The fractional model allowed us to interview and select a CFO well-versed in our industry, challenges, and financial model and ultimately swing way above our weight class.

When we chose Phil, we knew he would step in and drive improvements and process changes in our back office and finance department. What we didn’t expect was his ability to drive transformational changes across the entire business, even when outside the natural purview of a CFO. His impact has been immense and we know there is still untapped potential in the relationship that we intend to explore in the coming years.

Rich has been a critical part of our success at Susteon.  His integrity, work ethic and attention to detail are exemplary. Not only has he effectively managed the government accounting for multiple DOE and commercial projects, but he has also been a true CFO to guide us with cash flow, future investments and getting us through the Covid-19 downturn.  He has been a great mentor and advisor to me.  He is a pleasure to work with.

Steve Carnevale has been an exceptional CFO for Reveal Mobile, demonstrating remarkable expertise and dedication. He successfully completed our financial audit and implemented numerous accounting processes and procedures, significantly enhancing our financial management. Steve’s efforts led to the creation of a robust financial reporting package and a comprehensive multi-year financial forecast. Moreover, he streamlined financial information for the board, ensuring clarity and efficiency in our reporting. His contributions have been invaluable, and he has greatly strengthened our financial operations.

When we first started working with Alex, we had just transitioned out of our fiscal sponsor and were establishing ourselves as an independent nonprofit. She guided us through building and refining our financial systems and processes, creating a foundation that continues to serve us as we’ve grown and our operations have become more complex. Working with her is truly a joy – she’s thoughtful, precise, and deeply committed to understanding the full context of every issue. Her expertise has brought our organization to a level of financial sophistication we could not have reached on our own, and she’s helped us navigate challenges with clarity and confidence. Thanks to her guidance, we had a clean audit in our first year, which speaks volumes about the quality of her work and her impact on our success.

The entire population of Personify and I have sincerely enjoyed working with Todd Ackman.  He has been instrumental in transforming our Finance Department to not only control costs but to also add strategic capability for better decision-making at the C-Suite level.  His professionalism, knowledge, experience, and vast connections have proven invaluable, and what we thought would be a position to help us for a few months has turned into a lifelong partnership. The entire organization enjoys working with Todd, and our CEO referred to the Finance Department as the “coolest Finance Team” he’s ever encountered.  Not only is Todd strategic and knowledgeable, but he is fun, down to earth, and engaging as he navigates his work with professionalism. We couldn’t have made a better decision than hiring Todd as our fractional CFO.

I cannot recommend Bethany Hong highly enough – she is highly-skilled, hard-working and good-natured.  Bethany really came through in a pinch for us when we were trying to clear some thorny 280G issues in a fast-moving acquisition for a start-up technology client that had never previously even prepared financial statements.  Bethany immediately gained the trust of the client and worked directly with him to resolve all the issues prior to closing.  We and, more importantly, our client are very grateful to Bethany for the great work she did to help us navigate the tricky 280G landscape in order to successfully conclude the pending acquisition on time.  We would welcome the opportunity to work with Bethany again in a heartbeat!

When our original CFO could no longer continue with us, we found ourselves in the middle of complex acquisition discussions and in urgent need of an experienced financial partner. We needed someone who could not only step in quickly but also dig into five years’ worth of transactions and financial planning to help guide us through a critical transition.

Andrew Graham did exactly that—and more. He dove into our financials with clarity and confidence, quickly getting up to speed and helping us make sense of a complicated situation. Acquisitions and due diligence are inherently stressful, but Andrew’s steady leadership and insight made the process far more manageable. He was a trusted partner every step of the way.

Thanks to Andrew’s support, we successfully sold the company. His contributions were instrumental, and we’re incredibly grateful for his expertise and dedication.
