Our team
Are you a busy entrepreneur with little time to focus on the financial aspects of your company? We get it. You feel like you need to concentrate more on the daily grind of the business operations — putting out fires and taking care of customers — and that leaves precious little time to think about the long-term sustainability of your company. And even though you have good intentions, you don’t always get to those crucial tasks of creating a budget, analyzing your cash flow, or planning your business growth, right?
Welcome. You’re in the right place. We are Featherstone and we are passionate about helping small business owners just like you…and in ways you probably never expected!
