Scaling Finance as Dossier Expands Globally

For companies expanding across multiple international channels, keeping financial data clean and accurate is a major challenge. Dossier Perfumes, headquartered in New York City, has grown rapidly over the last two years—expanding both globally and in the U.S. direct-to-consumer (D2C) market.

Cara Mulligan, Director of Accounting at Dossier, explains how Blue Onion has helped her team keep pace with that growth:

“Blue Onion has been really instrumental in helping us streamline our financial close period. It helps us clean the data to streamline our close processes and allow more time to really analyze the data versus spending time cleaning it and understanding what we're working with.”

Faster Financial Closes Through Automation

When Cara first joined Dossier, reconciling D2C revenue took five to eight business days. Today, thanks to Blue Onion, the team has cut that down to around three days, even while expanding into additional sales channels.

“It’s all in the structure and the format that we needed to be in order to be efficient with what we need to get done,” Cara shares.

By automating reconciliation and standardizing financial data, Blue Onion allows the team to focus on higher-level analysis instead of time-consuming manual processes.

Accurate Merchant Account Reconciliations

Beyond revenue, Blue Onion has also streamlined merchant account reconciliations, helping Dossier allocate transactions correctly on the balance sheet, a critical but often overlooked aspect of financial health.

“People tend to focus on the P&L, but the balance sheet really tells the full story. Blue Onion has been critical in allowing us to clean things up and find better efficiencies, even for marketing and branding teams.”

Turning Revenue into Insights

For Cara and her team, Blue Onion has transformed revenue from a time-consuming task into a clear, actionable dataset:

“At the end of the day, revenue should just be revenue, and Blue Onion makes that situation possible. It makes your life a whole lot easier.”
