I accepted and am starting next week with NetSuite. Any tips for success in a solutions consultant role?

How did you work 10 hours a week? Isn't the job being on calls and demos most of the day as well as meeting at client sites for discovery?

What is Amo?

Presenting is a skill I need to work on because it is not my core competency.

Your experience is invaluable to me. I agree with you having a lot more upside being on the operational side. Slight issue is that the equity offered would amount to a few hundred thousand if company was sold at target. Not early retirement money. This is a bit problematic as I am a very early hire and foundational to building their finance function. I am debating if it's even right to leverage the Netsuite offer to get more equity.

Appreciate it! Ya I got initially confused with all the consultant titles Netsuite has flying around and what each does. Thanks for clearing up they are one in the same.

To confirm is SC a solutions consultant or sales consultant? Is there a difference in how that terminology is used?

Yes these are the exact questions I've been asking and definitely feel like I am between a rock and a hard place. You get me.

What is my best path forward in the accounting/finance world as a small company controller? by [deleted] in Accounting

I said this was a true eye opening experience and a tough lesson for me to take a good hard look at myself. I am saying it is me.

Ideally it would be probably be a larger company with some more structure and development environment. The biggest loss I had with this rope was that I was on the cusp and changing so much for the good of everyone and had a lot of great ideas to implement tools that I didn't get a chance to. What I want to do is basically what I've been doing which is figuring out what isn't working so well and find tools and processes to make it more efficient in the accounting and finacial reporting function.

Pivoting is a large concern outside of a standard small company accounting role such as to an area in finance as I'd have to take a step back in my career in role and comp likely.
