Almost 80% of business have an in-house finance function that could cost less or give more - giving owners and investors more transparency, more insight and more value. Most are manual-process heavy, Excel-reliant and depend on one key person, wrapped-up in an outdated employment model that pays by the hour and is not driven by the value of outcomes. If you are still working the same way you did even 12 months ago, you're not harnessing everything that great about AI and how it's changing the finance function, whether you are the employer or employee.I founded Better Business Basics to change the way businesses understand their financials, and FinMatch.Me, to match Finance Professionals to Finance roles based on the tasks delivered not the time it takes someone to do. Both leverage the power of intelligent people and intelligent systems to build value for both. Most of all, I love building teams of finance people who make change happen.Better Business Basics delivers the in-house finance function in a fixed-fee subscription model. We work in partnership with organisations across all sectors where you find SMEs, including Start-Ups and Not-For-Profit sectors. Our unique costing and matching tech reduces time and cost in data entry, leveraging value through process efficiency and in-depth analysis and reporting using data collected over many years.FinMatch.Me brings Australian-based Finance Professionals and SMEs that have annual revenues of $1-$10m together. It uses smart tech to cost and match finance needs, ensuring that an in-house finance function in an organisation is costed based on the role, not the time it takes. This perspective drives efficiency in process and leverages ever-changing AI to ensure that smart people are using even smarter systems to get the finance job done.Now more than ever, you need to know what makes your business tick. The finance role should be costing less now than it did even 12 months ago. Not by paying less per hour but by using that time more efficiently to make you fitter, more agile and bullet-proof.I am a writer and public speaker on subjects such as developing financial intelligence for SMEs; using AI and ML in accounting systems for maximum efficiency in a customer service framework, and employment replacement models for today's workforce. I am an advocate of flexibility in the workplace, in particular creating organisations that create employment models that are agile, supportive and inclusive, and that support parents, those caring for elderly parents, and everyone trying to study whilst working.
