Our Rankin McKenzie Partner has been a rock during this global pandemic. Whether it was building multiple versions of budgets or finding us a banking partner to acquire a PPP loan and low-interest loans, he always stayed focused and managed his task load. His insights and budgeting led us through the hardest six months of our nine year history. Our Partner and the entire team at Rankin McKenzie have an incredible company filled with dedicated professionals.

Mike has been a pleasure to work with and has brought lots of great ideas to our growing company. His laid-back personality blends well with our team. What I appreciate most about Mike is his willingness to teach and ensure that everyone understands the “why” behind what we’re doing.

Following the departure of a previous consultant, Alex took over the roll of DHIC’s Finance/HR Consultant and was able to step in and sort through everything on her own in order to keep us functioning without any down time.  Alex is thoughtful in her approach and thorough in her research of systems and processes.  She is easy to work with, and I trust and respect the input she provides in our Finance/HR area.  We look forward to our continued relationship with Alex as a trusted business partner.

As a fast-growing professional service firm, we were transitioning a very experienced controller into the CFO role. We needed someone who could bridge the gap as we sought a new controller and also serve as a mentor to our new CFO. Our Rankin McKenzie Partner was a perfect match. He collaborated with us on an appropriate scope of work to meet our goals and successfully assisted us through this transition period. Our Partner was a true partner and made a positive difference for our organization.

The entire population of Personify and I have sincerely enjoyed working with Todd Ackman.  He has been instrumental in transforming our Finance Department to not only control costs but to also add strategic capability for better decision-making at the C-Suite level.  His professionalism, knowledge, experience, and vast connections have proven invaluable, and what we thought would be a position to help us for a few months has turned into a lifelong partnership. The entire organization enjoys working with Todd, and our CEO referred to the Finance Department as the “coolest Finance Team” he’s ever encountered.  Not only is Todd strategic and knowledgeable, but he is fun, down to earth, and engaging as he navigates his work with professionalism. We couldn’t have made a better decision than hiring Todd as our fractional CFO.

I have really appreciated the expertise and professionalism Kathy Huff brings as we operate the company, especially under the many challenges we have faced in the last year. Her tutelage of our administrative lead has also provided her with the professional development opportunities she deserves.

In addition to all this, I was so impressed with the awesome effort Kathy put in on our behalf regarding PPP, we truly could not have done this without her. Kathy is a valued member of our team.

We were extremely satisfied with Kim and her work. She settled in quickly and accomplished a great deal. The added bonus was that she quickly assimilated into our team and everyone enjoyed her presence. We were very pleased with the arrangement and will call your firm again should the need arise.

Steve has headed our finance department for a better part of 5 years, guiding our company through our friends and family round, and then playing an instrumental role in our venture backed Series A financing and initial audit process. The structure that Steve created in our financial reporting made these events seamless. We look forward to our continued relationship with Steve as he guides us through our future growth to Series B and beyond. He’s also a fantastic team player and a pleasure to be around and work with. I would recommend him with the highest possible support, but I don’t want to share him!

John Griffin possesses a strong business acumen and a calm demeanor.  Beginning with my initial interaction with John, he possessed an impressive resume and exuded confidence quickly leading us to hire him.  He was instrumental in building our accounting function from the ground up while the company was in full operations. He became an integral member of our executive leadership team during a high growth period and provided exceptional support through our recent sale of the company. During the 5+ years he has supported our company, he has proven to be exceptionally valuable and exceeded our expectations.

Firebird Sign Company was launched in 2024 as a startup signage business, backed by a veteran team—but we lacked a senior financial officer. After researching the value of a fractional CFO and receiving a glowing recommendation from one of Mike’s former clients, I reached out to Rankin McKenzie specifically with the hope of working with Mike.

The onboarding process exceeded expectations. Mike very attentively sought to understand our needs and ensured he could dedicate the right amount of time and attention. Since partnering with him, Mike has successfully led our QuickBooks Online implementation and played a critical role in launching and integrating our new ERP system.

Mike is a true coaching professional who brings out the best in those around him. He represents Firebird with professionalism and precision in interactions with our private equity sponsor and has been instrumental in our first-year success. His local network has also been a major asset—connecting us with tax partners and helping us explore line-of-credit opportunities with local banks.
