If you’ve ever been in a forum with me, you know that “the ferret” changed the trajectory for Seattle Chocolate Company. He was recommended to me years ago by both our banker and a business valuation consultant because my company struggled for years (OK decades) to turn a profit. I tried product innovation and creative marketing and had all the right people on the bus. All I needed was someone to look objectively at my finances and help me recognize what we were doing wrong. Dan Cunningham devised proprietary tracking software called “The Business Ferret” and has worked as a CFO for his entire career. He knows everything, or so it seems to me. And after our monthly team calls with Dan, everything makes sense and we know how to proceed and leave feeling validated and affirmed. When I agreed to be this year’s learning chair, the first gift I wanted to give you, my EO Seattle family, was the Business Ferret. Run, don’t walk to sign up, there are only 50 spots. You’re welcome.
