ABOUT ME:

I'll be your guide to more satisfied customers, a happier work environment, and greater revenue! I’m Rob Stephens, Founder of CFO Perspective, which offers financial coaching and education to small business owners. 


Before becoming the founder of CFO Perspective, I acted as CFO to multiple small and medium-sized companies. I also was the Director of Operations of a $3 billion company and the program manager for a group of investment advisors.


I'm a CPA and have a master's degree in personal financial planning, so I understand both the personal and business aspects of financial management. I've run hundreds of cash flow projections and budgets, and built multiple profitability systems. 


My passion for teaching took me to Gonzaga University, where I teach entrepreneurial finance and behavioral finance to MBA students. Now I’m sharing my knowledge and experience here!


I have a mission: helping owners fulfill their dreams while better serving both their customers and employees. My company gives me the freedom, security, and control I didn't have with my other jobs. And I want YOU to feel the same! 


Low on sales, struggling with employees, or frustrated with your company?

The Creating Value Program will teach you how to prioritize what’s most important while making the right decisions and creating value for EVERYONE.

Look, here's a simple example of what I'm talking about:

Unhappy Employees = TERRIBLE Service

Terrible Service = Unhappy Customers

So...


Unhappy Employees + Unhappy Customers = Unhappy Owners


And here’s where I come in! 


When employees aren’t happy, productivity decreases. You end up losing your best employees while the worst stay and create a toxic work environment. Replacing a single employee costs 20% of their salary. 


Companies with good employee engagement have:


●    22% more profitability

●    21% more productivity

●    Lower staff turnover

●    37% less absenteeism

●    41% fewer quality defects


You get what you value when you provide value to others. Want your business to succeed?  Provide great value to both your customers and to employees.


IMAGINE what would happen if you provide THAT value to them! You can expect better customer care, better services, more engagement, and more revenue at a lower cost of time and money! Besides, your employees will be happy to work with you!

And what if you knew exactly what your customers want?

The same applies to your customers. And YES! You can provide value to them both. There are certain techniques we’ll go through in the program, so you can find out which ones work for YOUR specific niche and type of business.

But, what about you?

People think that if an owner is profiting, it has to be taken from customers and employees. Wrong! Getting value means giving value. That’s because owners, customers, and employees all want the same and your company is the meeting point. 

 

This can be summarized in the three D's, a concept I created to explain this phenomenon.

 


This course guides you step by step to identify, measure, and increase the value to you, your customers, and your employees. 

Are you ready to make a real impact?



Know EXACTLY What Your Customers and Employees Want

There's only one way to know - you gotta ask - and I'll make that easy

Guessing what your customers and employees want wastes your time and money. You may think you know what they want but you likely have blind spots.

There's one way to find out what they want: ASK.

I'll make that easy. You'll conduct a customer survey in the program. I'll guide you step-by-step through the process. I even host the survey on my website for you so you don't have to be a computer guru!

Want the same powerful insights for your employees? You can add an employee survey to the program.

Some Kind Words from My Clients

Be part of over 1,000 people who have enrolled with CFO Perspective programs. Can I help you achieve the same results as these other clients?

Arnold De La Fuente, VP Customer Success, MavenNext

It was like magic! We quickly and easily saw areas of growth that allowed us to make solid business decisions.

Ann Long, Liberty Lake Coworking

I have all of this stuff in my head, but having it all down on paper is awesome. I have way too many things in my head. It’s also getting the creativity flowing again! Rob has truly made an overwhelming topic very manageable to learn. I appreciate the small doses of information and the recaps throughout the courses. He is a true PRO!

Dr Nils W Ohlsen, Outlook Vision

It took me quite a few years to realize that being good at math does not necessarily mean I can effectively analyze the many important financial numbers of my practice. It is much better, and a much better use of my time to utilize the talents of someone that deciphers financial numbers professionally. CFO Perspective filled that gap for us. I feel fortunate that our small optometry clinic was able to benefit from an analysis from a Chief Financial Officer with decades of experience, wisdom that would typically be inaccessible to small businesses. Rob Stephens has a calm, reassuring manner and heart of a teacher. He has been a pleasure to know and is very effective at the service he provides.

CJ Curtis, Owner and Operator of The Garden Coffee and Local Eats

There are so many unknowns when opening a new small business; it can be down-right scary. That's why it would be hard for me to put a value on having Rob Stephens on my team. Rob's guidance and counsel has taken a lot of the fear out of opening my own shop. His guidance and confidence in me has been invaluable. He's helped me to sort through the unknowns and taught me to take things one step at a time, starting with the most important tasks first - and he even helped me to figure out what those 'most important' task were! Rob is patient, thorough, and intuitive. I highly recommend his services to anyone looking for support.”
