Palermo Business Solutions

What happens across a business eventually shows up in the numbers.

I discovered it in reverse, but I built it to be delivered forward.

Palermo Business Solutions began with accounting and financial management. The work started with QuickBooks and reliable reporting, but the numbers kept revealing problems that did not begin in the accounting department.

That perspective comes from more than 25 years of building and running businesses, including starting more than ten and building and selling three.

The financials exposed sales problems, which exposed operational gaps. Operations revealed breakdowns in people, processes, and systems, while the people problems pointed to deeper cultural issues. Those issues led back to weaknesses in strategy and planning, and ultimately to the readiness of the leader. I learned that business problems do not stay in one lane, and that is how Back to Basics: The Palermo Method™ was built.
