Building Financial Models That Actually Work

We started Cleverlinkpro in 2018 because we kept seeing the same problem everywhere – business owners in Vietnam struggling with financial models that were either too simple to be useful or so complex they couldn't understand them.

After working with hundreds of Vietnamese businesses, from Saigon tech startups to Hanoi manufacturing companies, we've learned that the best financial models aren't just mathematically correct – they're built for the people who actually need to use them.

Our Mission

Most financial consultants hand over a spreadsheet and call it done. We believe that's backwards. The real value comes from building models together with business owners, teaching the logic behind every formula, and making sure you can modify and expand your model as your business grows.

Every project starts with understanding your specific industry challenges. A coffee shop in District 1 has different cash flow patterns than a textile manufacturer in Binh Duong. Generic templates miss these nuances entirely.

What Guides Us

  • Transparency in every calculation – no black box formulas
  • Education over execution – we teach while we build
  • Local market understanding – Vietnam's business environment is unique
  • Long-term relationships over one-time projects
  • Practical solutions that work in real business conditions

We've seen too many beautiful models that nobody actually uses. Our approach focuses on building something you'll reach for every month when making important decisions.

The People Behind Your Models

We're a small team by design. This means when you work with Cleverlinkpro, you're working directly with the people who will build your models, not junior staff or outsourced contractors.

How We Build Your Model

Every business is different, but our process stays consistent. We've refined this approach over six years of working with Vietnamese companies, and it ensures you get a model that fits your specific needs.

  1. Deep dive into your current financial processes and pain points
  2. Analysis of your industry's key metrics and benchmarks in Vietnam
  3. Collaborative model building with real-time explanation of each component
  4. Testing with your historical data to validate accuracy
  5. Training sessions to ensure you're comfortable with ongoing use
  6. Follow-up support for modifications and questions

This isn't a rushed process. Most projects take 4-6 weeks because we believe in building something that will serve your business for years, not months.
