The scaling mindset
You are still the system. That's the plateau.
Read articleI run the financial side of owner-led businesses across the San Francisco Bay Area and Lake Tahoe. Tax, cash, reporting, and planning move together, sized to where your company is in its run.
Three connected disciplines run on one set of numbers, shaped by years of sitting close to both the wins and the wipeouts at owner-led companies.
Tax decisions get worked on a forward calendar, not a return. I sit with your CPA so distributions, entity structure, and major purchases land in the most efficient window. April becomes a confirmation of choices already made, not a discovery of what got missed. The depth of the tax work scales with the engagement level you choose.

Cash visibility is the difference between running a business and reacting to one. I keep the picture current 13 weeks out so working capital, AP and AR, and the conversion cycle are levers you can pull. Best, base, and worst case stay on the table together.
I install the reporting your business has been running without. A monthly close on a real cadence, KPI dashboards the leadership team actually uses, and a financial narrative that turns numbers into decisions instead of decoration. It integrates into the rhythm of the business, not on top of it.

Without Dave, I don’t know if we’d have made it. When he introduced us to the Scale B.O.S.S. the lights went on, and we never worried about how we spent our time. The result was amazing productivity inside a scalable rocket ship. Thank God for Dave!
We were running blind. We had no sense of KPIs, or how to understand what the numbers our accountant was sending us. Once we had Scale B.O.S.S. running, every meeting had a new purpose and a clear focus. We went from a struggling start up to an eight figure exit.
We enjoyed a good deal of success, but we struggled with understanding exactly where our companies were in their growth phase. With Dave’s amazing guidance, we were able to build out bespoke KPI dashboards, and the rest is history.
