Founder Rich Hauser recognized that smaller companies typically have a financial team consisting of bookkeepers or family members who handle the day-to-day accounting and bookkeeping functions, but do not have very much financial expertise or training. The organization's CPA might be involved only at tax filing time, and any information the tax accountant reports comes long after the year is over, which limits the usefulness of that information. Even if an accountant is involved throughout the year, the accounting and bookkeeping functions are typically uncoordinated and non-strategic at these organizations.
