As your firm grows, you find that the metrics you used to track your small business no longer keep up. Every entrepreneur remembers the day they judged the health of the company by cash in the bank, and remembers the times that they struggled to make payroll. If you find your business revenues have grown massively over the years, but profits have not, that is usually an indication that the systems you build previously are no longer adequate. Our Fractional CFO Service, helps by instituting the systems and metrics you need to grow your business.

Most CPA firms offer contract CFO positions that are basic advisory service. Instead, we focus on providing a full finance department to help you get the tools you need to manage your growing enterprise. While Profit and Loss Statements and Balance Sheets are important to share with investors and banks, you need real managerial metrics to make sure that the things driving profitability are increasing and costs are controlled. This service focuses on developing KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) for each aspect of your business to drive sustainable, profitable growth.
