JKO Connect helps FinanceFair refocus on Product led strategy

FinanceFair were looking to pivot their technology organisation to be more Product and less Technology focused. They wanted to find a partner with their customer centric ethos to help them deliver their software to their customers with faster cycles and build a long-term vision and strategy

Financefair gives you the freedom to fund your own future by converting invoices and future revenues into upfront growth capital, allowing you to manage your cashflow more efficiently and grow even faster.

(In September 2023, InvoiceFair rebranded as Financefair, a new name for a new era that better reflects the expanding range of solutions we offer)

Peter Brady (Chief Revenue Officer at Financefair) & Hellen Cahill (Co-Founder & CEO at Financefair)

Finding the right partner was key to our business strategy, the leadership group worked with our network to shortlist a partner. JKO Connect have helped us in 3 key areas:
• Re-engage with the technology team to move mindset to be product focused
• Worked with the business to close the gap between business and technology
• Deliver quality product to our customers faster and inline with our customers needs.
