“Many SMBs today feel intense pressure to do more with less. The proliferation of SaaS tools means business owners have likely been talked into point solutions that miss the mark on productivity and cost savings, and just add noise and complexity. Financial hygiene is vital to business success. What we’re building at finally addresses finance, bookkeeping, and HR problems at their root. But even more importantly, it frees business owners up to focus on high-value and revenue-making activities. We’re proud that PeakSpan continues to believe in our vision for supporting SMB owners.”

“Founders need two key qualities to survive: vision and execution. Felix has both in spades – rarely have I seen his same instincts and ability to deliver results. He’s relentless in all aspects of growing finally’s business, but has a specific, world-class knack for recruiting top talent. Just this year, Felix has recruited Roy Duvall, former CTO at Calendly; Kevin Dorsey, former VP of Inside Sales at PatientPop which crossed a $1B valuation during his time; Jacob Kay, who managed risk at Divvy from $10M ARR to $400M+, and many others to finally.
