Bottomline Growth Strategies

Client Testimonials

BottomLine Growth Strategies is honored to have worked with some of Maryland’s most outstanding business owners and organizations.

Here’s What Our Clients Have to Say About their Experience Working with Us:

We hired BottomLine at the beginning of 2008 to act in an outsourced CFO capacity for our company. Tasked with reviewing and revamping our entire financial processes from beginning to end, BottomLine has been phenomenal in producing concrete results for us that have resulted in dramatic increases in profitability, reduction in outstanding accounts payable, improved collection time for accounts receivable, and overall greater insight into various financial aspects of the business. We are extremely pleased with the service they have provided for us and look forward to our continued relationship with them.

Sharp focus, forward thinking, the ability to quickly trouble shoot and resolve problems, and attention to detail are all attributes of Carol Coughlin. Carol has worked for me for a total of 13 years at two different companies as my CFO. She has the unique ability to see the big picture while not losing track of the details.  She easily developed credibility with the Board, the bankers, auditors and regulators. She was an instrumental part of the deal team to help sell one of the companies we worked on together.  She successfully implemented meaningful financial and business reporting, budgeting and forecasting where none had previously existed. And, I relied on her for sound business advice. I enthusiastically recommend Carol Coughlin as CFO/Business Advisor for companies experiencing growth and/or having performance challenges.

Our BottomLine Guide is an experienced CFO who brought not only expertise to my company, but a level of credibility it would have taken me years to build. She is organized, efficient, creative, hard working, and sees potential financial roadblocks long before I do. Plus, finds multiple pathways around them. I am completely confident in my company's financials because I am completely confident in BottomLine Growth Strategies.

BottomLine has been a great help in bringing structure to our expanding business. As creative people, not finance people, we needed a reliable anchor to make sure we were keeping our business focus in the right place. Thanks to BottomLine, we are more confident in our future and in our decision-making process.
