No matter how long a company has been operating, it needs a proper plan to function effectively and meet its inception objectives. Irrespective of the size of business, companies face multiple challenges when they start off; and managing finances is one of the major difficulties that most firms commonly come across. Keeping finances in check and analyzing revenue spends can be very taxing for those who lack significant experience, and assigning a fulltime expert Chief Financial Officer (CFO) on board is not only a tough task but it is also an expensive requirement which most businesses fail to meet. Hiring a virtual CFO can take off the strain of finding a CFO and having to worry about the finances; thus, allowing companies to deal with other important things. Understanding the need to bridge the gap between CFOs and business owners, Govindan Thamarai Kannan, a seasoned professional with 25 years’ experience in the corporate finance, took the lead in 2011 and laid the foundation to elEVAte Business Solutions.

The idea behind the inception of elEVAte Business Solutions is to support businesses where the company’s products and technology are very good but the chances of

the firm’s survival are very less. As per our experience, many businesses lag in getting the right decision at the right time, they lack good planning and strategy limitation; they are unable to balance the ups and downs of business trends. We felt that our services could be useful to MSME segments where there is huge demand for good professionals but the supply is low and cost to company is high. We, at elEVAte, serve these companies with best attractive offerings at affordable prices. Our skilled team of experts offers Virtual CFO services which help scale up the operations of the businesses while holding the aspirations to grow graciously and consistently,” says GT Kannan, Founder and CEO, elEVAte Business Solutions.
