What our clients say about us
Before The LiveCFO, we were drowning in manual bookkeeping with constant cash flow crises and a measly $500K credit facility. Within 36 months, they gave us $16M in total financing, our own 55,000 sq. ft. facility, and real-time dashboards that let us make strategic decisions with confidence.
Raj
CEO
After 45 years in business, I couldn't find buyers because our manual systems made due diligence a nightmare. The LiveCFO got me my asking price, structured the financing, and the business has since grown from $15M to $22M in sales under new ownership.
Raj
Webflow Developer
Raj has been our accountant for 15 years he is super professional and on time with everything and always accommodating to questions regarding monthly payroll, taxes, and anything else we needed. When we decided to open our business Raj was very helpful. He helped us from the start to the finish.
Teresa
Deer Run Golf Course
Over the past 10 years we have done quite a lot of business together. I would recommend him as he is upfront and his no nonsense approach has really been a breath of fresh air. In the industry where everybody is looking out for their interest I always found him looking out for my interest.
Brad Parsons

When I came to LiveCFO I was earning enough money but I did not know how to retain my money. I expected LiveCFO to just work accounts but they spent the time and understand my cashflow. They showed me the path not only to save money but to invest in various properties to increase my cashflow.
