Craig and his team of finance/accounting pros are top notch. We have worked with them in at least 8-10 of our portfolio companies and they raise the game of the entire company. From Craig's help on developing a financial model and strategic planning to his team's work on accounting and month/quarter close, they are an asset to our companies. We will continue to encourage our portfolio CEOs to work with Ignition when they need outsourced CFO and finance/accounting work.

Ignition was the fractional CFO I needed in every aspect at FamilyID, from setting up my books at the start to preparing Board decks and keeping track of the cap table and negotiating the earn out at the exit in our sale.
