We believe that security and prosperity for individuals are achieved by entrepreneurship and business ownership.  Our mission is to support entrepreneurs as they pursue their dreams to improve people’s lives . . . the lives of themselves, the lives of their families, the lives of their employees, and the lives of their customers.

This perspective . . . the focus on helping others . . . is what makes Mark the CFO different.  We have spent decades creating and managing successful ventures, many of which focused on supporting startup and emerging entrepreneurs by providing financing, and delivering entrepreneurial training and consulting services.  The common thread is that the entrepreneurs we served all sought better lives for themselves and others.  And that includes us.

Mark the CFO is Mark L. Quinn holds an MBA and has been the Executive Director of organizations that provided services to startups and emerging businesses. I started my career on Wall Street and with financial services organizations but pivoted to working with entrepreneurs, the true drivers of our lives and economy. I set up and maintained accounting systems, raised funds, and managed grants. I have served on Boards of Directors and Chaired Finance and Audit Committees. Presently I teach Entrepreneurship at a renowned university. I have vast experience with small businesses and this venture is my initiative to help entrepreneurs start off in the right way with sound management.

Our values are reliability, trustworthiness, integrity, and responsiveness.  Though many firms share all or some of these values, these values are in our DNA.  They make us who we are and they drive us to improve people’s lives.
