Why Modfin?
Why did we create ModFin?
We understand the complexities of creative and purpose-led businesses.
Our experience tells us that:
- You all have multiple lines of business, and sole traders often have a ‘portfolio practice’ with half a dozen things going on
- Existing business modelling tools don’t cope well with this level of complexity and assume that you do one thing well
- Managing the cash in a ‘portfolio’ business is tricky, as is making good data based decisions
- Unless you’re an accountant, keeping track of what makes money and what doesn’t is also a bit of a challenge!
