FAQ

Questions about financial modeling

Will we be able to update the model ourselves?

Yes. Every model comes with a walkthrough and notes on which cells to change and which to leave alone.

Do we need to change our accounting software?

No. We work from what you already use, such as QuickBooks, Xero or spreadsheets, and connect cloud FP&A tools on top when they help.

How long until we see something useful?

It depends on your data and scope. Before any work starts, you get a written plan with dates for each deliverable.
