Why We Don't Oversell What Software Can Do
Financial tools can't make strategic decisions for you. They can't replace an experienced accountant or suddenly make a struggling business model profitable.
What they can do—when built thoughtfully—is give you faster access to accurate information. That extra day or two of lead time on spotting a problem? That matters more than you'd think.
We've turned down potential clients when we knew our software wasn't the right fit for their situation. Usually that's when they need fundamental business restructuring rather than better reporting. It's not a popular sales strategy, but it means the people who do work with us tend to stick around.
"I appreciate that they told me upfront their system wouldn't solve my cash flow problem—I needed to renegotiate payment terms with my suppliers first. Once I did that, their forecasting tools actually became useful."
