Several people in my circle are looking for investors for their funds, ranging from real estate projects to business acquisitions. Here’s why hiring a fractional Investor Relations (IR) professional is a game-changer, backed by research and industry facts: 1) Build Trust: Transparent and consistent communication is key. IR pros foster trust and long-term relationships with investors, which studies have shown lead to higher investment retention and satisfaction. 2) Boost Credibility: Clear presentations of your company’s value and growth potential by IR professionals significantly enhance your credibility. Research indicates that companies with strong IR practices attract top-tier investors and secure better funding terms. 3) Streamlined Communication: Acting as a bridge, IR pros deliver clear, aligned updates, reducing misinformation and ensuring investors have a positive experience. This streamlined communication has been proven to minimize investor churn and increase engagement.

What a great example of building the best team requires diversity. Research consistently shows that building diverse teams leads to increased innovation, better problem-solving abilities, and improved performance compared to homogenous teams. Don't hire people with the same strengths as you! Hire people who complement you in the areas you need to improve!

This CFO hired 3 Financial Controllers in 12 months. But None of them lasted. (Here’s what went wrong) Met a frustrated CFO this month. Brilliant strategist. Great with investors. Crushing the fundraising game. But they had one big problem... They couldn't keep hold of a financial controller. They hired 3 controllers in twelve months. Each looked perfect on paper, but none of them worked out. We had a long chat, and I tried digging deeper into the day-to-day Very quickly, we came to this conclusion… They kept hiring mini-CFOs. People who: - Loved high-level strategy - Wanted to work on fundraising - Dreamed about M&A But that's not what the CFO needed They needed someone who… - Lives for process building - Gets excited about month-end close - Dreams in Excel formulas - Makes accounting their religion So they can focus on needle-moving activities Like the next funding round and strategic partnerships Great reminders for CFO’s… You don't need another visionary. You need someone who loves the details and builds the systems that you need.

If the CFO can't do financial controls and doesn't have CFA/CIMA certification, for whom was he/she hired in the first instance? I have seen BCom or BA graduates are CIO/COO; basically the company needs someone close to the CEO, and then he/she will hire people to do the CIO/COO's job, and he/she will keep the designation as a status quo's and get their big paycheque. He/she will attend events and take all the credits that his/her team is doing, and that's the truth of this world, like "Ms. Sharaf."  We need the qualified and deserving people to hold their position, not a proxy executive. The whole industry culture needs to be changed. DO YOU AGREE?

Too many multifamily operators hit their growth ceiling at 5,000 units. Not because they can't find deals. Not because they can't raise capital. Not because they lack operational expertise. But often because their accounting infrastructure can't scale. I see it happen over and over: • Bank recs fall behind • Investors get frustrated • Staff turnover increases • Manual processes break down • Reporting deadlines get missed The reality? Your back office needs to be built for where you're going. (Not where you are.) Growing beyond 5,000 units isn't about hiring more bookkeepers. It's about having systems that can handle 10x your current volume. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁'𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗯𝗶𝗴𝗴𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗼𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗯𝗼𝘁𝘁𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗰𝗸?
