Top Employee Response
The company still sees itself as a small business accounting solutions provider. If they continue to think small NowCFO will always be a minor service provider.
All of it’s businesses are suffering. Nothing can help NowCFO, short of a management pogrom or liquidation of management starting with Jim Bennett.
