Most growth companies have analytics chaos masquerading as insight. Revenue dashboards that don't explain margin compression. Attribution models that don't drive decisions. Data teams generating reports instead of recommendations. I fix that. I'm Arshad, founder of Arshad Advisory. I help CFOs and finance leaders at growth companies ($5M-$50M) answer the questions their current analytics can't: - Why is margin shrinking as we scale? - Which customers are actually profitable? - Where is our next dollar best invested? WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT I'm not a dashboard builder. I'm a profitability consultant who happens to be technical. Most analysts ask "What chart do you want?" I ask "What decision are you trying to make?" Then I build the minimum analytics infrastructure needed to make that decision with confidence. No vanity metrics. No dashboard bloat. Just clarity on what drives profit.
