Most CEOs didn't grow up in finance. BUILD Financial Labs translates FP&A thinking into language, models, and decisions that make sense to the people running the business.
What We Do
A ground-up revenue model built from your data — with scenario analysis and a board-ready output your investors will trust.
Rigorous analysis of your pricing architecture and the financial implications of your GTM motion — before you scale it.
For founders who need embedded finance leadership — strategic finance, board reporting, and FP&A guidance on a part-time basis.
About
Bassam Afif is a CFA charterholder and FP&A expert with 25+ years spanning Fortune 500 finance, SaaS product management, and growth-stage advisory. He's built financial models at organizations from Johnson & Johnson and JP Morgan to Adobe and SAP — and led product analytics at Workday.
That combination is rare. It means the models he builds reflect how your product actually drives revenue — not just how finance textbooks say it should.
No jargon, no 80-tab spreadsheets handed off without context. Every engagement ends with a model you understand and can defend in a board meeting.
Models start from your product analytics, billing history, and CRM — not a generic template. They behave like your business.
Activation, retention, expansion — these are built into the model so product decisions show up as financial outcomes.
