"It is with pleasure that I write this letter of recommendation for Pete Stanley. We hired Pete this year over a six-week period to assist our company in developing a more comprehensive and accurate method of tracking and reporting our job costs on a project-by-project basis. One of the things I liked most about Pete is that he needed very little direction from me. Once we were clear on the scope of the project for which Pete was hired, Pete took it from there.
Pete proved to be quite adept at jumping right in and gaining everyone's confidence, even with the workers on the plant floor. Using his extensive knowledge and experience in manufacturing environments, he was able to move quickly to break down our process flows and gain an understanding of our business and manufacturing process. In the end, Pete was able to develop a methodology we intend to use going forward that gives management a better tool for managing projects and predicting project outcomes further upstream. During his time with our company, Pete consistently demonstrated a terrific work ethic and an excellent knowledge in cost accounting. He was also very conscientious in keeping the management informed of his approach and progress.
Based on this experience, I would recommend Pete Stanley to any manufacturing operation, particularly where sophisticated job costing methods are critical to the effective management of the business. Everyone at Kiesler enjoyed working with Pete and would welcome the opportunity to do so again sometime in the future." - Ric Jones, Chief Operating Officer
"I have known Mr. Stanley for over three years and have worked with him at both a personal and a professional level. Mr. Stanley was and remains instrumental in the development of my company's business plan and website.
He is a highly skilled professional, but beyond that, he has an outstanding ability to communicate at a personal level with his associates. This skill and talent permit him to operate in a technical environment yet maintain a very personal relationship with clients and associates.
Mr. Stanley will definitely be an asset to your operations and provide you a very productive, technically oriented, and personable team member.
If I can be of any further assistance, please feel free to contact me." - Alexander M. Brazier, Pegasus Pilot Services LLC
"By way of this letter, I want to extend my unequivocal recommendation of Peter Stanley.
I have worked with Pete since February of 2001 and have always found him to be the consummate professional. Pete and I worked together at Interpipe Manufacturing, where I found Pete's knowledge of the finance, administration and production areas to be outstanding.
Since our initial assignment together, Pete and I have collaborated on a number of start-up and venture capital projects. During that time, Pete repeatedly demonstrated his vast knowledge in all business areas. I started my own company, CTE, in early 2007 and have utilized Pete as a consultant on a number of projects. Pete has always delivered on time and under budget (many times the data was not what I had hoped but that was through no fault of Pete's) .
Pete's primary strength is his in-depth understanding of both the finance and production areas and his ability to provide insightful analysis of vast amounts of seemingly unrelated data.
The strongest statement I can make regarding Pete's abilities is to say that if the housing market and the corresponding Arizona construction market had not collapsed, Peter Stanley would be my CFO." - Duncan Brazier, President, Construction Trucks and Equipment
"ETA Engineering, Inc. has been privileged to receive the financial analysis services of Pete Stanley of Peter Stanley Company, LLC from early July 2007 through today. Pete's primary role has been that of developing financial reports needed by both myself and our CEO for ongoing company management and in support of a third party with whom we have developed a Regulation D private placement memorandum. In addition, he has assisted with ongoing bank reconciliation, cash flow, year-end analyses, job costing, and profit center analyses.
I have enjoyed working with Pete and have appreciated being able to delegate to him some very needed financial analysis which otherwise would not have gotten done or would have gotten done much later with consequently reduced utility. With his assistance, we have been able to move our company forward in both its overall and financial management.
I look forward to working with Pete in the future should the occasion arise. If you have further questions, feel free to contact me." - Ken F. Ekstrom, President, ETA Engineering, Inc.
"I have known Peter for eight years and have worked with him in several capacities. He has worked as an independent contractor to The Business Leadership Development Corporation for several projects, and we have referred him to several clients. I have also worked with him on community projects to deliver information technology to disadvantaged people.
Peter is a hard worker. He has strong expertise in the areas of finance and accounting, and he has the ability to get behind the numbers to understand what is really going on. He is able to build complex spreadsheets for financial planning, for budget versus actual analysis, and cash flow analysis.
Peter has experience in multiple industries, and he can quickly grasp new situations. Peter can build strong relationships with other people quickly, and he is very proficient in explaining problems and opportunities to the management. As a consequence, he has been a great asset to our clients." - Nigel A.L. Brooks, President
A. Because I translate complex operations to easy-to-understand operations.
I always give progress reports-also in an easy to understand language. This can be in the form of a narrative or a Gantt chart.
I am with the client until the project is completed to their satisfaction.
The completion can include manuals. If it does, then the appropriate users are trained using the manual. If the training is unclear, the manual is modified.
For example, Developed financial road map to success and exceeded profit projections by $200K at Activator Methods. Company had no department budgets or manager accountabilities. Implemented a “checkbook” cash management tool and budget process including manager-developed budgets and monthly performance reviews within MAS 200 system. Company achieved first operating profit and exceeded profit projections by $200K.
Turned around declining client in four months with daily cash management plan at Stanley LLC. Restaurant chain client lacked management skills and was ready to go out of business. Applied “checkbook management tool” to control expenses and take them out of survival mode and into profitability.
A. First, complete your college degree in business-either accounting or finance.
The early positions in business must provide you experience in how the business information system works, how a sale is made and enters the business to be converted to a completed item-either a service or physical item. This includes (VERY IMPORTANT) what are the controls to ensure the highest quality is provided for the sold item. This also includes how a defective item is sold.
Along the way get involved in improving processes and learn more about the business and adding friends and acquaintances along the way.
There must be a steady increase in responsibilites and titles.
This builds your professional side.
Look now at yourself. Are you a self-starter? Do you take chances that could result in failure? Be prepared to do this and start over. I did this a couple of times-in Chicago.
To finally succeed develop a network of people-business and professional who can provide you with leads. Once you have your first couple of clients MAKE SURE YOU ARE SUCCESSFUL (MAYBE COME IN UNDER BUDGET OR PROVIDE THEM MORE THAN THE CLIENT EXPECTED), then you can use them for referrals.
Success comes slowly but it does come. Believe in yourself and what you do. You have a unique product or service.
