Our Expertise
Benefits of a Fractional CFO
In many small or mid-sized companies, the owner may not have sufficient resources to hire a dedicated financial executive, and therefore can be faced with a serious dilemma – thier time is not being well spent. Rather than focusing on what they do best, they find themselves presented with the challenge of reviewing financial accounts, managing personnel functions, reviewing insurance policies, selecting computer or communications systems and other tasks that fall within the scope of support functions.
Cash Flow Enhancement
Nobody wants their cash tied up in receivables and everybody wants to take advantage of special payment terms. Have systems in place to maximize vendor discounts and minimize overdue receivables. More cash in your pocket allows for more opportunity for growth.
Optimization of Financial Data
Whether it be a database or accounting system, you deserve reports that help you make better decisions. It all begins with policies and procedures. We take the time to make sure you receive intelligent information so you know how to best use resources.
Identify and Manage Risk
Risk can be mitigated through an effective system of checks and balances, due diligence, and quality relationships. We help create a culture of high integrity and confidence that important decisions are based on reasonable expectations.
Business Development Initiatives
You want your sales team to be more motivated? You want them to have SMART goals and information at their fingertips. A CFO will provide them with up to date figures and play a large role in helping them evaluate profit centers.
Focus on Sales Growth
A CFO will allow you to focus on your expertise. The days of putting out fires will be over. Whether it is a problem account, an impatient vendor or an insubordinate employee, imagine how good it will feel to say “ask my CFO”.
Stable Management
Employee retention and high turnover can become time consuming and expensive. Your team is the foundation of your organization. We advise how to hire, train, compensate, inspire and most of all retain top performers.
