Testimonials

“Working with Zac has been an absolute game-changer for our company. His deep knowledge of restaurant finance, coupled with his professionalism and approachable nature, makes him an invaluable asset. Zac not only brings a wealth of financial expertise to the table but also a sense of partnership—you truly feel he’s in your corner, dedicated to your success.”

“I cannot recommend Zac enough. Zac is the rare type of “finance guy” that also intimately understands the nuances of building a startup. He has a wealth of knowledge around traditional financial management strategies, and the necessary creativity to manage an evolving startup’s capital needs. As a founder, you deal with a lot of uncertainty and risk. Having a guy like Zac in your corner helps to clarify your path, and he just makes success feel a little more do-able!”

“Working with Zac has been like having an in-house CFO. He goes beyond the spreadsheets to make sure he understands the strategic objectives of our business and helps build a financial strategy that aligns with those objectives. His work is always accurate, he’s time efficient, and easy to communicate with. We plan to keep using him as our virtual CFO for as long as we can.”

“Zachary has been an important member of our team since starting last year. When Zachary was hired he was tasked with building an accounting and finance system from scratch, starting with a large volume of unsorted data. He has exceeded our expectations and has been a pleasure to work with. He is responsive and clear in all communications.”

“Zachary didn’t just help with our accounting but became an integral part of the team and provided a lot of strategic financial advice. He is the go-to person I refer to my friends.”

“Having fallen into the CFO of my family’s restaurant group, Zachary has been an absolutely invaluable resource. His advice and guidance have made me feel 10x more comfortable in the CFO position than before I began working with him. Finally, Zachary’s ability to help me strategize towards the most impactful initiatives for my business really sets him apart from others.”

“Zac was instrumental in helping us build our business foundation. When we were trying to be everything to everyone, he pushed us to narrow our focus and identify our core audience – a decision that fundamentally shaped our product strategy and go-to-market approach. Beyond strategy, Zac rolled up his sleeves on the operational details that matter. He helped us think through our technology stack and hiring strategy for engineers, ensuring we were building a team that could scale. His guidance on financial modeling and unit economics gave us the clarity we needed to make smart decisions about where to invest our resources.”

“Working with Zac has been a total game-changer for my food CPG startup. He handled every operational and financial detail, from setting up our LLC and accounting systems to negotiating contracts and managing vendors, with precision and confidence. He also leveraged his network to connect me with the right partners (R&D, legal, and tax) and guided me through the patent filing process. His strategic mindset and ability to execute let me focus on building the brand while knowing the business was in great hands.”

“Zachary Weiner has been our hospitality company’s finance consultant for almost a year. We came to him to help create a better foundation for future growth of our units and concepts. He has not only helped us in that pursuit, but also identified some pre-existing accounting and financial issues that needed to be fixed. In addition, he uncovered some significant sales tax-related errors that allowed us to recover thousands of dollars that had been overpaid by a previous CPA.

Zac has extensive Restaurant CFO knowledge and experience; however, as technically capable as he is, he possesses a unique ability to communicate in an approachable and educational way. We appreciate Zac’s expertise and manner and would highly recommend him to any business looking for a trusted financial partner for the full spectrum of needs from basic foundational accounting to complex CFO-like engagement.”

“Zac has been a superb asset and instrumental to our financial success. His great attention to detail, professionalism and strong diligence in understanding our wants and needs made a huge positive impact on the company.

It was our first time hiring a Chief Financial Officer, but with his amazing experience and initiative to bring all the best of an essential team player – responsible, takes ownership, proactive, collaborative, and kind – he has helped build solid process and communication that allowed us to operate at a strategic level.

If you want your financials in safe hands, we strongly recommend Zac!”

“Zac is thoughtful, principled, and consistently conducts our business with integrity. He communicates proactively and always keeps me in the loop, so I always feel informed and confident in the decisions we make on a daily basis as co-founders.

What I appreciate most is his transparency and humility. When it comes to areas outside my expertise, like finances, he has the patience to explain the why behind each decision and makes sure I truly understand. It makes collaboration easy and builds real trust.“
