Testimonials on behalf of the Biz MD

"Having Mike Hulser and The Biz MD team aboard is like hiring not only a CFO but another 'owner' wholly committed to driving results and profits for the business.  The Biz MD has had an immense role in the financial success of our business.  If cash flow and a weak bottom-line is your challenge,  I sincerely recommend you give The Biz MD a try… now!"

- Michael A. Han, President, The Wedding Ring Shop

"It is hard to get really effective financial help. Over the years, we've used lots of consultants, but Mike and The Biz MD drive results and are at the top of their class. There is no reason to fly in mainland consultants with The Biz MD right here in Hawaii. There is no consultant here that can create value and educate your business like The Biz MD can. Our entire organization is financially more competent today, thanks to Mike Hulser."

- Kent Untermann, Owner, Pictures Plus

"At first I was impressed with Mike’s thoroughness of his initial written “temperature check” of our business. It is impossible for me to quantify how helpful Mike has been. He is an integral part of the survival, growth and success of our business. It is an honor to work with someone of Mike’s caliber. He is able to make very complex and intimidating financial information relevant and understandable to the lay person. Mike meets with our ownership and the executive managers on a weekly basis, and though our meetings are often intense, we invariably end up laughing more than once."

- Layla Dedrick, Owner, Bella Pietra

"Mike dramatically increased our ability to compete in today's marketplace. His ability to quickly understand our financials drove immediate improved results. Mike will help you stay on the straight and narrow path of running a business correctly."

- Bruce Okimoto, Owner, T.OKI Trading

"We heard about the Biz MD from friends who are also small business owners.  They recommended the Biz MD to us and had great things to say about them.  We found that as our business grew we had a difficult time managing everything and began to feel very overwhelmed.

The Biz MD brought much needed structure to our company. Hiring the Biz MD has helped guide us and allowed us to focus on our business while they handle the financial aspects.   As a result of hiring the Biz MD, our stress as business owners has been dramatically reduced and we are able to progress our business to the next level.   Working with the Biz MD is like working with a business partner because of the way they treat our business as their own.  They are fully invested in us and we trust them immensely.  We would definitely recommend the Biz MD to a business in financial trouble or a new business owner seeking financial guidance."

- Elmer and Samantha Guzman, Owners, The Poke Stop

"The Biz MD quickly analyzed our financial performance, showed us how and where we could sharply improve and then helped us implement effective measures to improve our Profitability and Cash Flow. The financial return to the firm was a nice multiple of the cost of The Biz MD."

- Peter Vincent, Managing Partner, Peter Vincent Architects

"Being new to the business world after taking over Q Laser Center, I was looking for someone with the experience and knowledge of how to succeed in today's business climate. Jessica has brought her leadership skills to the table and has become a Team Leader within the company. She has been a driving force to my staff, as well as myself, inspiring all of us to take action and always giving us that extra push to progress and excel. She understands how my company needs to perform.

Jessica possesses sharp skills when it comes to finances and budgeting. Being able to control how and what is spent is certainly not always an easy job, but I have learned to trust her judgment and advice. An example of this was when I had an interest in purchasing another business and she came in to do a valuation of the business.  She found it to be of less value than the owner represented it to be and, thankfully, prevented a "bad sale" from going through. She has also used those skills to help me expand my current location by assisting me to secure the needed lending and also handled the lease negotiations."
