Fiscallion

I started Fiscallion as a side-project. But it turns out, help from an ex-FP&A with 9+ years training as Accounting Lead, FP&A and BI Manager is something a lot of folks need! Growing this business is now my full-time mission!

Fiscallion is the solution for when it feels like your business has gone off the rails.

They say you fake it until you make it as a founder. But for some founders, it might feel like you’re faking it a little too often.

Making mistakes is par for the course when you’re just starting out.

But what happens once you have a staff to pay? Are you willing to bet everything you’ve built on winging it? In this hostile financial environment, the stakes are even higher!

My clients don’t worry about faking anything.

They have an experienced expert on staff who clears blockers, sets a clear path, connects them to the most trusted tech and partners, and ensures everything is set up to scale according to best practices.

Want proof? 

Only 18% of first-time founders succeed. Since Fiscallion's inception, 75% of paying clients have closed funding or become more profitable.

For a stage where most VC firms and accelerators are satisfied with 1/10 businesses making it, 8/10 is unprecedented. I was honestly a little shocked to discover this stat...

The numbers speak for themselves: This works.

If you're an ambitious founder, you probably:

→ Want to improve financial models

→ Struggle with optimizing your finance tech stack

→ Lack the time to enhance your financial strategies

→ Want to implement new financial software but don’t know how

→ Aim to prepare for successful fundraising rounds but need guidance

→ Seek to optimize your financial reporting but don’t know where to start

You might relate to all 7 of these points.

Or, You might just be struggling with 1.

Why does that matter?

Well, having a robust financial strategy is essential for growth.
