How It Works

Finance as a Service Empowers CEOs

By combining traditional CFO, controller, and bookkeeping services with proven processes and pre-integrated software stack, Consero offers a dashboard view of company performance, financial reports with drilldowns to transactional details, plus the ability to invoice customers, pay bills, and more, all in one place.

More than outsourced accounting, which only offers glorified bookkeeping with very basic reporting, Finance as a Service is a fully managed solution that offers our clients enterprise-level financial visibility and control at a fraction of the cost and time required to set up and manage an internal finance team and infrastructure. In addition, as your company expands and has more complex reporting needs, any in-house operational inefficiencies become a bottleneck to growth.

Common Challenges

As the CEO of a high-growth middle-market company, you need timely, accurate financial information to make effective decisions and drive the growth of your business. Unfortunately, most SMB finance departments fail to quickly and consistently deliver the information you need, forcing you to waste time waiting, or worse, make less-than-fully-informed decisions.

Why Common Solutions Fail

Building an in-house finance and accounting team takes time to get right and it can be a headache to keep under cost, especially as you grow. Getting it right means having good information at your fingertips to help you make better decisions without being dragged into in-house operational issues.

The Consero Solution

Consero does all this and more, in a fully managed solution. By providing you with a pre-integrated software stack and consolidating your financials in one platform, you can access real-time information. This allows you to see exactly where your business stands today to make better decisions on where it should be headed tomorrow.
