“In the past few months, Paul has overhauled our financial reporting structure - reducing processing time by over 12 hours a month and simplifying the layout to make it more user friendly for our business. His ability to listen, articulate the issues and search for more efficient options is the value of his work.”

Brian Quint, President of AquaQuip

“As the head of our finance team at Classic Accessories, Paul continually developed improvements to the timeliness of accessing crucial data.  His talents and experience working with Navision ERP and Excel reduced the time on our financial reporting - from monthly recurring financial statements of 15 days to an average of 6 days as well as quick turnaround time on one-time project analysis.  From prior experience, he introduced and lead the implementation of our business intelligence software (Jet Enterprise) which allowed us to drill down on sales and gross margin for customer and product sales data to make timely decisions for the business.”

  Brian Bozlinski, CEO at Classic Accessories

“Paul reconfirmed for me, the value of humility in leadership.   Paul is someone who understands that people do their best work in an environment where there is respect, inclusivity, and collaboration.   Integrity is non-negotiable in all aspects of his life, and this mentality raised the bar with everyone around him.  It was an absolute pleasure to work with Paul and I am grateful for that experience and our continued friendship.” 

Holly Harvey-Smith, Human Resource Manager at Classic Accessories

“Paul is a great listener and shows respect to everyone. He is completely reliable, trustworthy and genuinely cares about his responsibilities as well as the people with whom he works.  He’s a forward thinker, bringing forth ideas on how to improve all aspects of business and shares his knowledge and insight freely without seeking personal gain or attention.”

Andrew Harris, former CEO at Simon Golub & Sons

“As a trusted member of the senior executive team, Paul did an amazing job keeping the company and the staff’s needs first.  He showed up for people authentically, kind and respectful.  Working closely with his financial team, they reduced a 35-40 day month-end financial close to 5 days – an important improvement in providing senior management the ability to make quicker decisions critical to the business.  His consistent work ethics and dedication were instrumental in helping us sell Simon Golub & Sons to an overseas strategic partner.”

Padraic Freeman, former Chief Operating Officer at Simon Golub & Sons, Inc

“Paul Larson is a man of high moral fiber and integrity.  I had the pleasure to work with Paul as the group health insurance broker for Classic Accessories.  He was always personable and treated our team as true partners.  His analytical capabilities to dissect numbers and turn them into a “user friendly” benefit analysis model are exceptional. He made our job much easier!”
