About
Hi, I'm Andrew
My first job in accounting was at Disney Studios in 2005, working for the production of Pirates of the Caribbean 2 & 3. While working on a major studio production is vastly different from small business finance and accounting, it was an invaluable experience. Everyone has seen a film, of some kind, but not everyone has been able to look behind the curtain. I was there, in a supporting role, watching something so amazing being made. To be a part of something like a major motion picture, but in a financial sense, taught me that it’s important to focus on the big picture and support the end goal.
I went on to fill various roles in film and television, but knew that was never my passion. In 2013, I graduated from Fordham University’s Gabelli School of business with an MBA. Since then, I have worked with small businesses as a financial leader; I thrive at fixing accounting issues that so many small businesses face. I have worked in the marketing industry, the event industry, liquor retail, manufacturing and advertising.
In 2018, I began selling private label FBA on Amazon. I know first hand that being an Amazon FBA seller has its ups and downs. As all sellers know, it takes a variety of skill sets and a broad range of business acumen to be successful on Amazon. I was the Finance Manager at one of the top boutique agencies that specializes in Advertising on Amazon. I dealt with many successful companies that thrived, because they realized couldn’t solve the problem in-house. You may be a rockstar at researching products, dealing with suppliers and launching them on Amazon, but maybe you struggle with the other areas of the business. Ands that’s ok. Sometimes, in order to be successful (and possibly save money in the long run) you need to let the experts handle it.
That’s why I wanted to start helping Amazon FBA sellers. I found that the thing I’m good at, is something that so many sellers struggle with. There are so many aspects of running an Amazon business that can be challenging, since you have no choice but to play by their rules, and reconcile their confusing statements. I have been there, and I know how to do it. I am able to help on a short term basis, or I can be your long term fractional CFO.
I am passionate about solving complex business issues for small businesses, no matter what they are. You do NOT need to be an Amazon seller to reach out. Any small to medium size business that has Financial Reporting or Accounting Issues might benefit from my services.
