RoseRyan, a ZRG company that provides on-demand finance & accounting and marketing leadership and consulting services to a multitude of companies in Silicon Valley and beyond, unveiled its new Marketing Solutions Group today, as an additional way to help high-growth and maturing companies achieve their growth goals and address skills gaps.

Since 1993, RoseRyan’s consultants, who are experts in finance & accounting and marketing with experience and expertise in high-growth companies, have seamlessly integrated with organizations for one-time projects or an ongoing purpose. The RoseRyan Marketing Solutions Group will follow this same proven framework, meeting a pressing need as companies explore how they can bring in targeted levels of marketing expertise at the right time while scaling the business.

“Early-stage companies are not yet ready to take on full-time marketing leadership or build a full marketing team on their own, yet they need to understand their position in the marketplace and develop a solid marketing strategy to take their company to the next stage,” said RoseRyan President David Roberson. “RoseRyan’s comprehensive suite of tailored marketing solutions meet a company’s exact needs, which is timely now as many companies struggle to address all their talent and skills gaps and are increasingly looking to flexible arrangements, for both cost-efficient and practical reasons, and for the level of expertise that only consultants at the top of their game can provide.”

“Whether you need a fractional or interim CMO or an entire marketing team, RoseRyan marketing consultants will become a part of your organization—to devise your marketing strategy, help your business build brand awareness, launch impactful campaigns and accelerate growth,” said Fred Ehle, Vice President of Marketing Solutions at RoseRyan.

New Marketing Solutions Address Leadership and Project Marketing Challenges

RoseRyan can be a guiding force in a company’s marketing efforts or provide active, interim leadership, or both. “We quickly get to know companies and become a part of their operations for however long they need us,” Ehle said. “Because of their experience and innate adaptability, our marketing consultants require no ramp-up time and immediately focus on the marketing goals of the company, whether we are helping to develop those goals or meet them head on.”

RoseRyan’s Marketing Solutions include interim professionals with a range of expertise in public relations, omnichannel campaign development and management, brand management, product marketing, and more. RoseRyan also brings its extensive ecosystem of partners to companies as consultants develop or lead a company’s marketing function, and manage business-critical marketing projects, including sales assessments, agency procurement, e-commerce consulting, product positioning, performance marketing and martech system selections.

“As a consulting firm that guides companies through the entire business lifecycle, we are always looking for how we can help companies in all areas, and we are incredibly excited by this new capability, to be able to fulfill companies’ entire marketing needs as they evolve,” said RoseRyan Founder and Chair Kathy Ryan. Companies with maturing marketing organizations ready for full-time, permanent leadership will benefit from RoseRyan’s tight partnership with global talent advisory firm ZRG.

RoseRyan is a ZRG company offering on-demand leadership and consulting services in the finance & accounting and marketing disciplines. More than 1,500 clients—from venture-backed startups and private equity portfolio companies to Fortune 500 companies across a range of sectors, including tech and life sciences, e-commerce, mobile, social media and more—have relied on RoseRyan’s expert advice since 1993. The professional services company provides outsourced, customized, and full-stack solutions and scalable support at every stage of a company’s lifecycle through broad solution areas that focus on emerging growth, interim finance, corporate governance, strategic projects, and marketing.

New York, NY, April 4, 2022 – ZRG, a rapidly growing global talent advisory firm, today announced its acquisition of RoseRyan, Inc., a Silicon Valley-based provider of finance and accounting consulting solutions.

Since 1993, RoseRyan has engaged over 1,000 clients on projects including outsourced accounting for start-ups, corporate governance, interim solutions, and strategic projects such as IPO readiness, SEC reporting, financial planning and modeling, technical accounting, audit support and mergers and acquisitions. The addition substantially expands ZRG’s consulting capabilities, adding to their West Coast presence and breadth of solutions for their clients.

“We’re excited to join the growing family at ZRG,” said Kathy Ryan, Founder and Chair of RoseRyan. “Joining a global network of over 400 employees worldwide will help our team stretch further. We in turn will provide additional depth to ZRG, which means better results for RoseRyan and ZRG clients alike.”

“The nature of the workforce has evolved and having even greater bandwidth in the finance and accounting consulting sector through RoseRyan is fantastic,” ZRG CEO Larry Hartmann said. “This complements our current interim team, led by Mark Viner, and also adds important consulting capability to allow us to service a wide range of clients, who need support in accounting and HR.”

“RoseRyan is known for guiding companies to greatness, and that’s what we’re bringing to ZRG as well,” said RoseRyan CEO David Roberson. “We’re looking forward to growing our capabilities by partnering with ZRG as we continue to deliver excellent solutions when our clients need them most.”

Mark Viner, President of ZRG Interim Solutions, said: “It is a great win to add the experienced team at RoseRyan to ZRG. They bring an established, trusted, brand and a strong team. We are very happy to be working together to bring our clients the best possible service and talent.”

Campbell, Calif., September 15, 2021—For the seventh year in a row, leading Silicon Valley-based finance consulting and accounting advisory firm RoseRyan’s employees once again gave the company their vote of confidence in the coveted The Bay Area News Group’s 2021 Top 100 Workplaces staff survey.

The company secured a sought-after position on this winning workplaces list after its employees took part in the Group’s annual confidential survey that measures 15 workplace engagement drivers, including attributes such as leadership, innovation, open-mindedness and purpose.

The response rate by RoseRyan staff on the survey was 86%, and the results were published during August 2021 in Bay Area News Group supplements distributed throughout the region.

Reflecting on receiving this honor once more, Dave Roberson, RoseRyan CEO says, “Each year since 2015 RoseRyan firm has won this award by receiving consistently high ratings from its staff. This honor is no accident though: our organization’s strong culture, founded upon a set of values identified 11 years ago, has allowed our team to continue to excel, despite the challenges that 2020 presented.”

Roberson adds that besides RoseRyan’s robust company culture, it has also been able to rely on its team’s vast expertise and skilled adaptability, as well as good communication channels and a robust tech stack, which factors have all provided the sturdy foundation required to support an impressive client base since 1993.

Menlo Park, CA—July 23, 2020— AST Private Company Solutions™ (AST PCS) today introduced a new strategic partnership with RoseRyan, a Silicon Valley-based firm that delivers specialized finance and accounting solutions at every stage of a private company’s growth. Celebrating 27 years of business, RoseRyan is one of the most respected finance and accounting consulting firms in the San Francisco Bay Area. Companies using Astrella™ capitalization (cap) table and ownership data management platform will now be able to work with RoseRyan’s specialized finance and accounting professionals exactly when and where it’s needed. RoseRyan associates will use Astrella to support private companies who require ownership tracking and exit modeling and integrate the data into their client company’s financial reporting.

AST PCS, the Silicon Valley-based unit of ownership data management leader AST, recently launched Astrella as a transformative technology in private company shareholder management. The new cloud-based software-as-a-service platform brings together private blockchain technology, artificial intelligence (AI) and predictive analytics, and was built with an API-based ecosystem to quickly integrate with innovative providers in the private markets, such as RoseRyan.

The agreement is the latest among a group of partners that AST PCS has recently announced, including 409A valuation leaders Derivatas and Economics Partners, digital documentation and storage giant Box, private company lender Liquid Stock and private security transactions provider EquityZen. These strategic relationships deliver on a diverse array of private shareholder requirements, with common objectives including rapid data access and availability, efficient reporting workflow for private company ownership, and the best possible end-to-end user experience.

RoseRyan started in 1993 helping private companies organize their financial strategy in every stage of their lifecycle”, says Dave Roberson, Chief Executive Officer of RoseRyan.  “During every critical phase of the company, and even during economic turmoil as we are now are experiencing, companies depend on RoseRyan to provide the right level of financial expertise and support. Working with the leadership team of Astrella and their other partners, we find the same collaborative fit as we promote in our culture at RoseRyan.”

Adds AST PCS president Carine Schneider, “Private companies are sometimes so focused on building market-leading products and services that they forget how important it is to ensure their internal books and records are kept in a manner that is audit-ready. Managing cap table and equity compensation data on a secure system that was built by a team with a background working closely with auditors is an important component to ensure financial professionals can rely on the information in the system. Developing our partnership with the experienced team at RoseRyan confirms the importance they place in a system that was built for financial professionals and we look forward to servicing our joint clients together.”
