Growing a small business with Phortana
How Park & Co. used Phortana business banking to streamline operations, improve cash flow, and focus on customers.
When Sofia Park launched Park & Co., a neighborhood design studio, she needed a bank that could keep up with the pace of a growing client base. Traditional tools felt slow and fragmented. Phortana offered a clean dashboard, instant transfers, and multi-user access—features that mapped to the way her team worked.
Moving invoices and vendor payments into Phortana reduced hours of bookkeeping each week. Sofia set spending limits on team cards, created virtual cards for online purchases, and approved payments from her phone during site visits. Real-time alerts and reliable transfers meant less time worrying about logistics and more time serving clients.
Outcomes
Measurable improvements
- Saved ~6 hours per week on reconciliation
- Reduced payment delays by 40% with instant transfers
- Improved budget accuracy with category-level controls
“I can train a new teammate in minutes,” Sofia explains. “The controls are intuitive and the alerts catch issues before they become problems.” With less administrative overhead, Park & Co. expanded services and took on larger projects, confident the bank wouldn’t be a bottleneck.
Today, Park & Co. continues to grow with Phortana. The team relies on fast support and industry-grade security, while clients enjoy quicker turnarounds thanks to streamlined finances. For Sofia, the biggest win is focus: “Phortana lets us spend time on the work that matters.”
