ABOUT
Jared Collins
FOUNDER, NORTHSTAR CONSULTING
I’ve spent more than a decade in finance and FP&A building reporting, forecasts, and decision-support tools that help businesses understand performance and make better decisions. I started Northstar to bring that same financial discipline to contractors and small businesses — without forcing them into expensive software or overly complicated systems.
The process is intentionally simple. We start with what you already use, identify what’s actually worth improving, and then configure the proven system or build around the way your business works. I do the work myself, keep the scope clear, and walk you through the finished tool so you know exactly how to use it.
Tell me a little about what you’re working with and what you’d like to improve. I’ll review it and follow up to discuss the best place to start.
No obligation. Practical advice focused on your business.
