Why Can’t You See How Your Business is Doing Financially?

Updated: October 26, 2021

In most companies, people can’t get what they want from finance – and what they do get doesn’t make sense of because they are not accountants. The old days of a business executive looking at an accounts receivable aging chart, and realizing they didn’t need to even review the chart, are over. At Consero Global, we know that sorting through large amounts of data for information is time consuming. That’s why we have a portal, a high-level overview of the current status of our clients’ financial reports that lowers the amount of communication processes to understand and use the data from financial reports. “In finance and accounting, there’s all this noise – because people don’t have all the information in a way they can quickly digest it,” says Bill Klein, president of Consero. “All of this is just noise and inefficiency that takes away from finance and really providing the value and the understanding of what’s happening in the business.” In this video, Bill explains how a portal allows Consero to improve finance so that businesses see real-time numbers, not an aging history.
