How we do it:
Ballast combines finance, accounting, and management consulting for superior clarity and accountability
A finance and accounting lens means nothing in your business can hide. We combine finance, accounting, and management consulting to give you a clear look at your business’s:
Current state (accounting)
Future probabilities (finance)
and the aspects of your operations that are impacting both of those positively or negatively (management consulting)
We then use those disciplines to monitor the progress of our recommendations and help you pivot if necessary.
“Ballast provided previously unknown insight that will positively impact our sales operations going forward. It’s no surprise, every dollar we’ve invested with Ballast has led to significant ROI.”
— Founder and CEO, High-Growth Digital Marketing Company with 40 Employees
