Why a Fractional CFO, or Controller?
It starts with your CPA -
Companies usually first hire a CPA firm to take care of their most basic needs: tax, bookkeeping, and compliance matters.
But beyond that, CPA’s simply cannot engage in strategic planning & operational projects like a seasoned CFO or Controller. A CPA firm will stall out, at this point.
Next steps -
A business owner next needs to get the right financial & operational advice to launch into their next growth stage, or fix problems holding them back. What are their options?
Hiring a full-time CFO is costly and can take several months to find a person you trust - months you do not have time to waste.
Consulting firms are outrageously expensive and don’t explore other parts of your business beyond your specific questions.
A Fractional CFO or Controller is the most cost-effective way to step beyond what your CPA can do for you - to be able to address complex business questions, on a temporary basis.
