Strategy partner that provides the necessary rigor and financial discipline to scale our business.
As our company grew rapidly, we quickly realized that we needed to move beyond our annual financials for our strategic planning and resource allocation needs. We partnered with Flywheel Associates to help build the necessary rigor and financial discipline. Josh was an excellent partner - he quickly learned our business, worked with us to understand our needs and challenges and together we were able to achieve an actionable solution to our problems.
I was so pleased with our partnership, that I continued working with Josh through our accelerated Series A fund raising efforts. Josh provided tremendous counsel during the process and helped us exceed the requirements and expectations of our investors. I count Josh as one of my primary advisors and look forward to partnering with him as we scale our business.

Building a robust business plan to successfully undertake an initial round of funding
