The numbers change. The questions don’t.
We’ve built financial models, investor packages and reporting systems across software, professional services, consumer brands and operating businesses. The details differ. What owners need to know — what it costs, when it’s profitable, and what to say when an investor asks — rarely does.

TECHNOLOGY
Technology & SaaS
Software and technology businesses live or die on unit economics that most founders have never had to defend out loud. We build the model, then make sure you can explain every assumption in it.
What we hear
- Needed to understand the business economics and have a financial document to pitch to investors
- Knew the product worked but could not show how the business made money
- Had no in-house expertise in financial modeling or capital raising
What we build
Three-statement financial models · Investor packages and pitch decks · Unit economics and scenario planning · Business development and pipeline growth
PROFESSIONAL SERVICES
Consulting & Professional Services
Services firms are usually profitable in aggregate and invisible per project. We build the reporting that shows which clients, engagements and people are carrying the business — and which are quietly costing it.
What we hear
- Had no visibility into project-level finances and no way to see which work was profitable
- Lacked the technical skills to build an Excel tool specific to how the firm actually operates
- Needed visibility into cash flow while also trying to increase sales
What we build
Bookkeeping and monthly close · Budget and sales capacity models · Financial analysis and monthly reporting · Business plans and investor packages · Fractional CFO and business coaching
CONSUMER & MEDIA
Consumer & Media
Consumer and media businesses carry inventory, production costs and seasonality that software companies never think about. The financial questions are different, and so is the model.
What we hear
- Needed to understand when the business would be profitable and when investors could be paid back
- Could not explain the economics of the business well enough to pitch it
- Needed to know and defend a valuation without in-house financial expertise
What we build
Financial models and operating budgets · Investor packages and valuation support · Fractional CFO and bookkeeping · Inventory and margin analysis
SERVICE BUSINESSES
Service & Operating Businesses
Operating businesses succeed or fail on staffing costs, capacity and timing of cash. These are unglamorous financial problems, and they are the ones that most often decide whether the business survives.
What we hear
- Needed to understand the business economics and how much to pay staff
- Wanted to raise funding but was unsure what the market would pay to invest
- Needed a consistent way to assess the return on prospective investments
What we build
Financial and cost-benefit models · Valuations and pitch decks · Bookkeeping and monthly close · Pipeline and sponsorship sales support
Don’t see yours? The financial questions are more alike than they look — if you sell something and pay people, we’ve almost certainly worked on the same problem in a different industry.

What Our Clients Have to Say About Us
Martrice G.
“With the deliverables provided by Sam we have secured new contracts and funders! He has been a business saver for sure!”
Max B.
“Sam Sunmonu went over and above what was expected when I hired him. Sam's quality of work and ability to teach me along the way was more than what I could have asked for. With broad knowledge and experience, he was able to see the root of the problems with my financial model that I wasn't able to see or correct. I finally feel comfortable and confident using my financial model and explaining it to potential investors.”
Mihn C.
