Entreflow CFO and Accounting Services

I hired Entreflow Consulting Group to take over my bookkeeping services this year. The team at Entreflow was very professional and timely in providing me with booking services. The specific Consultant that I worked with was very knowledgeable and made my involvement very easy. I would highly recommend Entreflow Consulting Group to any busy professional looking to streamline their business.

Our business was in need of some help, we needed an effective system in place to help achieve our goals. In a two hour consultation Entreflow gave us just the strategy we needed to increase business productivity. We now have simple system in place that's saving us time and energy while increasing our profit. Thank you Entreflow!

We needed help setting up QuickBooks and training for our team. The team at Entreflow has been great to work with and would recommend to businesses in Vancouver area looking for advice on QuickBooks or ERP.

Amazing service, support and adviceWe've been using Entreflow for a wide range of specialist services for the last 2 years. Helina, Iain and their team have provided specialist services to our in-house teams across accounting, HR, and business planning areas. They have also been the perfect accompaniment to our team when we needed deeper expertise at critical times.Always responsive and professional we've thoroughly enjoyed working with them and look forward to developing further our relationship with them as we continue on our growth trajectory.

William has been my accounting guru for the last three years, patiently guiding this solo entrepreneur through QuickBook Online. I recommend William, Helina, Iain and everyone at Entreflow to anyone who needs any level of help with their accounts, and a team of fantastic cheerleaders behind their business.

As a startup in the controlled environment and vertical farming space Evolved AgriTech has been working with Entreflow for over a year. The multidisciplinary nature of Entreflow has made thema big asset to our team in this critical time. Whether it’s bookkeeping, accounting and forecasting or tax, and strategic advice, Entreflow takes care of it all so we can focus on our company’s growth. Their team even worked with us on marketing and sales planning, CRM setup and financial modelling – helping us navigate the twists and turns on this journey. We’ve had a great time and a lot of laughs along the way, and we are looking forward to another productive year! Thanks to the whole Entreflow team!

We initially worked Iain and his team back in 2019 to put together a well-needed business plan update and bank loan proposal. While we held off with our expansion and thankfully avoided the subsequent impact of COVID, we again approached Iain in 2020 to continue work on this. Between Entreflow's initial 2019 work and later 2020 updates, they helped us put together an effective and beautifully presented business plan / bank loan proposal. This, in large part, helped us secure a sizeable loan with Vancity!At least one of the banks / credit unions we approached complimented us on the work that Entreflow had done for us, which was very reassuring to hear!Their proposal had all of the right quantitative and qualitative elements: hard figures (both historical, current, and future predictions, as well as loan requirement), company information, marketing plan, visuals. They also helped us put together spreadsheets that could be updated and shared with the banks - again something very much appreciated by those institutions. Perhaps most importantly, they helped us overcome the challenges of the debt to equity ratio, which the institutions are obsessed about.I highly recommend Entreflow (in particular Iain) for small and medium-sized businesses looking to expand and needing to put together effective proposals for financing your expansion (assuming you have an effective business to begin with, of course!). I felt that Entreflow's costs were justified, since they produce results.Thank you to the Entreflow team!

I have had the pleasure of working together with Helina and I can say from first hand experience, she is a Super Woman! Anytime my clients or friends are struggling with or wanting to grow some aspect — or many aspects — of their business, I just tell them, “Talk to Helina, she can help.” Whether you’re looking for help with hiring, marketing, sales, growth or finances, Entreflow can help. And best of all, they do a comprehensive deep dive into your business, so the solutions they offer take into account your business as a whole, not just one part in isolation.

Fractional CFO service was very costly with zero impactI engaged this crew with the hopes they’d help my company get on track for making smart financial choices when it comes to our investments as well as our business model pivot we are undergoing. It seemed like we were really poised to make this happen and I was super excited for the possibilities their help might bring.Unfortunately there was an ‘instagram vs reality’ situation there, from the sales process to the delivery of the service.There was no single ‘manager’ or driver of the setup process, as such the dependancies they had on our team and vice versa weren’t managed to a timeline. This meant that even though setup was not complete, they automatically rolled us into the monthly plan ($3,500/month). So the bills started accumulating, even though setup wasn’t done.We started the monthly CFO financial meetings, and I was really shocked at their advice for us. It was as generic as: ‘raise prices and you’ll make more money’ and ‘hiring good people means you should pay market rate’ type of stuff. Never did I get the feeling that our CFO had dug into our finances, industry or business model and derived valuable insights specifically for us. It was just this grade 6 level business stuff. I was confused and thought maybe they were just getting warmed up, or something like that. I gave them the benefit of the doubt to allow some time/room to succeed.In the end, we spent over $20k, the value I anticipated deriving from the process was just so severely lacking. It felt like this company was poised to be this amazing force in our company’s success, but I actually feel very taken advantage of by this company and I’m really sad about how it transpired.

Helina and the team are a joy to work with. They are so down to earth, charismatic and tech savy, that getting help from Entreflow is easy and a breath of fresh air. As a small business operator, who’s going through all the growing pains imaginable! Entreflow’s help with accounting and payroll automation has been a blessing. Now the key players on our team have more time to be creative and do what they love, while the back-end of the business looks sharp and ticks like clockwork.This is good administration. Thanks Entreflow!
