The cost of flying blind
These are the problems we hear about on nearly every first call. If any of them sound familiar, you are not alone.
You're making six-figure decisions on gut feel
You don't know your real margins or your real cash position. Which projects actually make money? Hard to say. And the decisions keep getting bigger.
You've outgrown your bookkeeper but can't justify a $250K CFO
There is a gap between basic bookkeeping and real financial leadership. You are sitting in it, and that is where expensive mistakes tend to pile up.
Revenue is growing but profit isn't keeping pace
More revenue should mean more profit. When it doesn't, the issue usually isn't accounting. It is a lack of financial strategy.
What is a fractional CFO?
We handle your finances the way a full-time CFO would, but you only pay for the hours you need. We build dashboards, forecast cash flow, dig into profitability, and sit in on your leadership meetings. Think of us as a financial partner who actually gets their hands dirty.
Most businesses between $1M and $10M in revenue need real financial leadership but can't justify a $200K+ salary. That is the gap we fill.
Financial Dashboards
See your cash, margins, and KPIs in real time instead of guessing.
Cash Flow Forecasting
Know what is coming before it arrives so you can plan hires and investments with actual numbers.
Profitability Analysis
Find out which products, projects, or segments actually make money and which ones don't.
Leadership Partnership
We show up to your meetings, challenge assumptions, and help you think through the hard calls.

Is Finance Catalyst right for you?
We work best with owners who are past the startup phase and into scaling, where things get more complicated and a wrong decision actually hurts.
- Your revenue is between $750K and $10M and growing
- You're making bigger decisions but don't trust the numbers behind them
- You have a bookkeeper or CPA, but no one is thinking strategically about your finances
- You're about to hire, expand, or take on debt and you want the numbers before you commit
- You're tired of being the only person in the room who worries about cash flow
- You want someone who cares about your business, not just another vendor
I have been in your shoes
I opened my first business at 19, a coffee shop. I learned more about cash flow, margins, and financial pressure in that one year than most people learn in a decade. When we closed the shop, I was heartbroken. But I was wired differently from then on.
I spent the next five years doing warehouse work, laying floors, pulling wire as an electrician, running an insurance agency. Every stop taught me something about how businesses actually work, and what breaks when the finances are a mess.
Now, as a fractional CFO, I work with business owners who are scaling through exactly the stage where things get complicated. I have lived the decisions you are facing.

Common questions
Answers to what most business owners ask before getting started.
A fractional CFO is a financial strategist who works with your business part-time. You get the expertise of a full-time Chief Financial Officer without the full-time cost. We build dashboards, forecast cash flow, analyze profitability, and sit in on your leadership meetings to help you make better decisions.
A bookkeeper records transactions. A CPA handles taxes and compliance. A fractional CFO takes that financial data and helps you make business decisions: when to hire, whether a project is actually profitable, how to manage cash flow, where to put money for growth. We work alongside your bookkeeper and CPA, not instead of them.
We start at $750/month for growing businesses that need basic financial visibility, and go up to $5,500+/month for established companies that want a hands-on CFO partner. Most of our clients are on the Momentum tier at $3,250/month. For reference, a full-time CFO runs $200K to $400K+ per year in salary and benefits.
We typically work with businesses doing $750K to $30M+ in annual revenue. Our sweet spot is $1.5M to $10M: companies that have outgrown their bookkeeper but are not ready for a $200K+ full-time hire. We also work with nonprofits and earlier-stage companies that need help getting their finances in order.
No. Our engagements are month-to-month after an initial onboarding period. Most of our clients stay because the results speak for themselves, not because a contract says they have to.
It depends on the business, but here are real examples: we found over $1.2M in accounting errors for one client, and identified an operational change worth $900K in annual revenue for another. Beyond the dollar figures, clients tell us the biggest difference is simply knowing their numbers are right.
