As the company grew my responsibilities focused more on the financial aspect of the business. This included implementing an automated billing system that integrated with our CRM & GL that reduced AR by over 50% and time spent on billing our customers by 70%. I worked closely with the CEO building financial modeling to influence strategic decisions during the uncertainty of the COVID crisis. I’m proud to say the company has continued to grow revenue during COVID and the team maintained a churn below 1%. Late 2020 was primarily dedicated to successful due diligence as BayIQ was acquired on 12/31/20 and became part of AuoVitals. Currently, I’m focused on integrating the different systems and best practices as the BayIQ team becomes part of AutoVitals.

I came on as employee five at BayIQ to provide operational expertise to a small company with tons of potential but in need of structure and process. Within the first three months, I’d implemented a CRM, HRMS, and a plan on how to support our customers. Over the next 18-months, we’d grown to 19 employee’s and I spent time overseeing both the Customer Success and Finances while tripling MRR. I worked closely with the CEO, President, and the Board to identify strategic opportunities for BayIQ. I was actively involved with fundraising for our Seed Round and follow up financing.
