Testimonials

The RISE team has been at the center of our business since the beginning. It has been such a luxury to work with a team that cares about our business as much as we do. The amount of diligence that they put into every task is frankly unparalleled across all of our service providers. I trust them completely.

Jonathan Asmis President – Shared Appreciation Services

I've worked with RISE for years across multiple companies, in multiple industries. The team there is highly capable of handling everything from basic bookkeeping to sophisticated financial modeling. I strongly recommend working with them.

Jesse Vaughan President – Kopperfield

RISE CG has been an integral part of my business for a decade. In that time, they’ve not only made life easier, they’ve consistently gone above and beyond to make sure my business runs at its best. From finding me the best lines of credit to maximizing every possible tax benefit, they’ve more than paid for themselves 1000x. What sets them apart is that they truly care. I’ve never once felt like just another client. RISE CG is always just a call away, and genuinely invested in our success. I’m incredibly grateful for their partnership. There is no second best. I will never work with anyone else.

Guillaume Hamon President – Rejouice

What I appreciate most about working with the Rise team is their ability to operate as a true strategic partner. They’re not just a fractional CFO—they’re an indispensable part of our leadership team. Rise brings sharp financial insight, structure, and foresight, always thinking several steps ahead and treating our business with the care and urgency as if it were their own. They’ve made our lives immeasurably easier—not just by staying on top of the numbers, but by jumping in during high-stakes moments, offering clear guidance, and always showing up when it counts. It’s rare to find a team with this level of financial depth, responsiveness, and integrity. Rise doesn’t just make the complex manageable—they help us move faster and smarter.

Since 2019, MRP Training Solutions has worked with RISE Consulting Group to provide high-level accounting oversight, maintenance of accounting records, preparation of annual statements, budgeting, cash-flow management, and compliance. Their team has helped us modernize and document our accounting operations and address financial challenges, making our company more efficient and more profitable. They have always been available when needed and fair in their pricing structure. We consider our relationship with Kam and the entire team at RISE to be more than just customer and vendor. We have developed a lifelong friendship with their team and look forward to many more years of working together.

Andrew Hayes Chief Executive Officer – MRP Training Solutions

Rise is critical to our day to day and month close process. I really appreciate that they are timely and always available when I need them, just like an in-house team. With Rise on my side, I know our growing business will have the resources we need to grow.

Patrick Daly CFO – Reachify

Choosing to engage Rise Consulting Group was an enormous turning point in our business. Every month, I have a strategy call with my Rise CG team and go over our budget, profit, cash flow, trends, receivables, and action items. This reporting and accountability allowed us to drastically increase our profit margins and more than quadruple the valuation of our business over the last 3 years. I am happy to recommend Rise Consulting Group to any business owner. They are not just very competent professionals. Working with Rise is like having a partner working with you in your own finance department.

Darren Rysedorph Founder/CEO – Sage IT Systems

Working with the team at RISE helped us to make smarter, more informed decisions and were instrumental in our success. The process of becoming intimate with every aspect of our business allowed us to create a very powerful partnership where we could easily navigate every phase of our growth with the type of financial intelligence that most small to medium businesses are not able to afford or have access to. They were by our side through our acquisition and due in part to their comprehensive financials, the due diligence process was smooth, and we were able to command a premium for our company.

Rob Farrow Founder – Aisle Planner, Inc.

I’ve known Kam Karamshahi for almost 20 years—first as a Partner at CohnReznick, and now as a client of his firm, RISE Consulting Group. RISE recently migrated our systems from Shared Logic to QuickBooks Online, along with several other migration projects. The work was finished on time, on budget, and without interrupting daily operations. Kam’s team anticipated issues, communicated clearly, and trained our staff so we were productive from day one. Whether tackling complex system conversions or providing strategic financial guidance, Kam delivers technical excellence, accuracy, and practical business insight. I recommend Kam and RISE without reservation.

Umberto Santaniello Chief Financial Officer – Joseph Freedman Co., Inc.

Working with the RISE team has been invaluable for several reasons. First and foremost, I greatly appreciate the honesty, quick turnaround, and clarity they provide. It's refreshing to work with a team that communicates effectively and ensures I understand every step of the process. Kam has also made a significant difference in streamlining my business operations. Having a second pair of eyes to catch details that might otherwise be overlooked has been incredibly helpful. It gives me confidence that nothing important slips through the cracks.
