Steve Breitman’s Bio
Steve Breitman turns ordinary numbers into valuable, strategic business information. He works with business owners as a strategic partner to identify and take advantage of opportunities that increase profits, optimize cash flow and prevent financial problems before they happen. Steve is a CFO with a CEO perspective.
Steve trained as a CPA and has 26 years of accounting, financial and operational management experience. He graduated from the University of Texas at Austin, Magna Cum Laude, with a BBA in Accounting. Steve’s career path led him to work in public accounting for four years and to hold a variety of financial and operational management positions including CFO, Regional Controller, Corporate Director of Management Reporting, Executive Director and Regional Manager. Steve had management responsibility for 6 business sites with 175 employees and $20 million in revenue as well as reporting responsibility for 25 business sites with $120 million in revenue.
Steve gives back to the business community by volunteering his time. He serves as the Treasurer of the Better Business Bureau Foundation, the Chairman of the Better Business Bureau Boulder Advisory Board, a consultant for the Small Business Development Center and a member of the Small Business Advisory Council.
Steve founded Mindful Business Solutions in 2004 because he believes in the power of small business. Entrepreneurs and small businesses account for the majority of innovation and employment in the U.S., yet most leave money on the table and experience costly surprises because their financial management isn’t as strong as they think. Imagine their power if they realized their potential! That’s why Steve devotes his efforts solely to businesses in the start-up to $30 million revenue range. His experience in both Finance and Operations is the X-factor that helps his clients become more profitable. Steve’s calling card is providing the exact financial management services that are needed when they are needed and maintaining the flexibility to change as a business grows.
