Former PE investor. $500M+ deployed. Now we bring that same rigor to eCommerce and CPG brands doing $5M–$150M—without the full-time CFO price tag.
Sound familiar?
We've analyzed 1,200+ conversations with brand founders. These are the top pain points—ranked by how often they come up.
Difficulty tracking real profitability across SKUs, channels, and campaigns—not just top-line revenue.
Scaling creates more complexity—inventory, hiring, ads—without the financial infrastructure to manage it.
Bookkeepers record transactions. Accountants file taxes. Nobody connects the dots to help you make decisions.
No dashboards, no forecasts, no real-time view of cash position. Just a P&L that's 6 weeks old.
You're running product, marketing, ops, and HR. Finance keeps falling to the bottom of the list.
Disorganized records, reconciliation backlogs, and reports nobody trusts. You can't build strategy on shaky data.
Before Eightx
Most founders we work with aren't starting from zero. They've tried to solve this—but the tools and people they hired weren't built for the complexity of scaling a brand.
See How We're DifferentQuickBooks / Xero on autopilot
Great for recording transactions. Terrible at telling you which product line is bleeding cash.
Spreadsheets and manual tracking
Labor-intensive, error-prone, and always out of date by the time you open it.
Hired a bookkeeper
They record what happened. They don't tell you what to do about it.
Traditional accountant (tax-focused)
Good at compliance. But they don't understand ROAS, inventory turns, or why your Q4 cash disappeared.
Tried to DIY it
You're brilliant at building a brand. But you're spread across product, marketing, ops, and HR—finance keeps slipping.
The founder
"I spent years deploying $500M+ in private equity. I saw what institutional-grade financial operations could do for a business. Now I bring that same playbook to brands that can't afford—and don't need—a $300K/yr CFO."
Before founding Eightx, Matt was a PE investor evaluating and optimizing businesses across industries. He saw a gap: the brands doing $5M–$150M had outgrown their bookkeeper but couldn't justify a full-time CFO.
That gap costs founders real money—in missed margin, bad inventory bets, cash crunches, and growth decisions made on gut feel instead of data.
Eightx exists to close that gap. We built a proprietary methodology called X&OP (Cross-functional Operations Planning) that connects your finance, marketing, and supply chain data into one operating rhythm.
