Your board isn’t worried about your growth rate. They’re worried your numbers don’t mean anything. I spoke with a SaaS founder doing $5M ARR. → Strong traction → Confident narrative → “Predictable revenue engine” in the board deck But under the hood: → MRR tracked manually → Revenue split across 5 spreadsheets → Rev rec based on memory → Forecasting = choose-your-own-adventure tab Growth wasn’t the problem. The finance foundation was. And here’s what that kind of disconnect actually costs you: → MRR off by thousands → Collections slipping through the cracks → Bookings up, cash flat → Team making decisions based on outdated data If your finance operations still rely on manual systems, you’re not just wasting time, you’re risking missed revenue. And when the numbers don’t hold up, the trust doesn’t either. Your board expects reliable data. Don’t let a simple mistake shake their confidence: → In your metrics → In your models → In the story you’re telling Because when finance breaks, trust breaks. And trust is a lot harder to rebuild than a spreadsheet.
