Outsourcing saves time and money for multi-unit franchisee

0

Seth Skogen owns two Culver’s restaurants in South Dakota, located 45 miles apart. Daily desk time and travel were keeping him away from important management tasks — and his family at home.

The Challenge

Seth Skogen disliked the amount of back-office work on his plate but didn’t want to add overhead costs for a non-revenue-generating employee. Outsourcing to Wipfli was a practical decision. It also meant Skogen could digitize key systems and processes, rather than run between two locations that are 45 minutes apart.

The Solution

With a paperless back office, Skogen was able to delegate to Wipfli:

  • Bill processing and payment.
  • Bank and credit card reconciliations.
  • Monthly financial reporting.
  • Custom financial reporting for the corporate office.
  • Year-end financial reporting.
  • Corporate tax preparation and filing.
Wipfli’s team is professional, knowledgeable and solution-oriented. They were able to take a lot of the pain out of a lot of the processes.

The results

With Wipfli, Skogen has tools to manage cash flow and keep accounts up to date at any time, from any place. And Wipfli’s franchise and accounting expertise uncovered accelerated depreciation deductions and other strategies to enhance savings and cash flow. That’s time and money that can be reinvested into the business.
