#BuckTheTrend

Your systems connected. Your numbers watched.

Buckhorn CFO Advisory Services works alongside owner-operated businesses on their numbers every week — CFO advisory, QuickBooks, payables, cashflow and reporting. We do the legwork with Buckhorn AI on your own systems, so you get the answers without learning new software.

Your back office, across every system you run: books, inventory, payables, receivables, payroll and email.

Businesses Buckhorn has advised

What we do

Advisory, books and systems — managed with you

  • CFO advisory and business management

    A CFO who works alongside you every week, not once a quarter. We dig into your numbers, build the plan with you, and stay with it.

    • Cashflow management and planning
    • Strategic planning
    • Bank funding and lender support
    • Business transitions and succession planning
  • Buckhorn AI, managed for you

    We connect your systems — inventory, point of sale, books, CRM, email — tie them together so you can ask your business anything in plain English, and manage the connections with you.

    • Connections built for your systems
    • One question across every system
    • Monitored, reconciled and fixed with you
    • Nothing written without your approval

    • Monthly business status update
    • Custom dashboards

Advisory, powered by Buckhorn AI

We use the AI. You get the answers.

Buckhorn’s advisors work in your systems with Buckhorn AI, the software we build. You never need to sign in to anything.

  1. Your systems, tied together by us

    Books, inventory, point of sale, payroll and email, connected so we can ask one question across all of them instead of exporting reports from each.

  2. Weekly, not quarterly

    Because the legwork is done with AI, we look at your numbers every week — payables, receivables, cashflow, stock — and bring you what needs a decision.

  3. Nothing new for you to learn

    No login, no new software, no training. You talk to us; we work in your systems. Nothing is changed in them without your say-so.

Three ways to work with Buckhorn

Have us run it, use it yourself, or both

Some clients have us do the work, some want their own team asking Buckhorn AI, and some do both. Pick what fits; you can change later.

About Buckhorn

Not a once-a-quarter adviser

Many businesses have the staff and the systems they need, but nobody whose job is to make sure the information coming out of them is current, tied together and laid out in a way that points the business somewhere. That is the gap Buckhorn fills.

We diagnose a business through its numbers, build a plan with the owner, and then stay with it — weekly reports, regular visits, support through lending and transitions, and now AI on your own systems that we set up and manage with you.

Our method

Evaluate, plan, act, report — and keep going

  1. Evaluate

    We start with what you already have: your accounting system, your reports and how the business runs today.

  2. Diagnose and plan

    We find the strengths and weak spots — cashflow, profitability, overhead, systems, organization — and agree a plan with you.

  3. Act

    We put the plan in place with you: new or better systems, trained staff, and course corrections as we go.

  4. Report

    Regular reports from your updated systems show where the business stands and how it is moving toward its goals.

  5. Maintain and adjust

    When a goal is met we set the next one. The work is constant, and so is our contact — every week, not every quarter.

How the managed service works, week to week

  1. 1. Monitor

    We keep watch on your connections and your numbers as the weeks go by.

  2. 2. Reconcile

    We compare what your systems say against each other and against the bank.

  3. 3. Flag

    When something doesn’t tie out, you hear about it from us — with what we found.

  4. 4. Fix with you

    We work through it with you and your team, and adjust the setup so it is less likely to happen again.

The experts

The people you work with

  • Founder · CFO/Controller

    Trevor Arnold

    The Business Execution Expert

    Trevor had his first job at eight and has been working out how to make each one perform better ever since. He earned his bachelor’s and master’s degrees in accounting — the language of business — and built Buckhorn around a simple idea: owners make better decisions when their numbers are current and laid out so they make sense.

    He focuses on cashflow, profitability, data analytics and prompt corrective action. Devoted to his clients, he earned his pilot’s license so he can get to them faster.

  • Partner · CFO/Controller

    Trever Jones, MBA

    Systems, reconciliation and reporting

    Trever built his career in corporate accounting and has spent it on the systems behind a business’s numbers: accounting systems, software training, reconciliation and financial reporting across many industries.

    General ledger, payroll, receivables, payables and the chart of accounts — he has set them up, trained people on them and kept them in order. Sub-par books? Trever bucks the trend.
