Practice 03

CFO counsel, on demand.

A finance partner for owners and executives whose decisions warrant a numbers-fluent voice in the room — pricing, capital, scenarios, board reporting.

The Engagement

A finance mind in the room — without a full-time hire.

We embed with a small number of owner-led businesses and operating companies on a part-time basis — weekly, monthly, or as the question warrants. The work is whatever the business needs most: cash-flow planning, pricing analysis, the financial conversation behind a hiring or financing decision, the model that goes to a banker or board.

The aim is not to add to your inbox. The aim is to make the next consequential decision a more confident one.

Scope

Where a CFO partner changes outcomes.

The work is shaped to where the business is. Common engagements include any combination of the below.

Cash & Forecasting

13-week cash forecasting, working-capital management, scenario modeling for downside and upside cases.

Pricing & Margins

Unit economics, margin attribution, pricing strategy, cohort and customer-level profitability.

Capital Strategy

Debt and equity structuring counsel. Banker, lender, and investor communications. Term-sheet review.

Board & Investor Reporting

Investor-grade monthly packages, board materials, KPI dashboards, narrative for the numbers.

Strategic Planning

Annual operating plans, three-year financial models, hiring and capacity planning, expansion modeling.

Transactions & Diligence

Sell-side and buy-side financial diligence support. M&A modeling. Integration of acquired entities.

Cadence

Three engagement tiers.

We adapt to where the business is. Most clients begin monthly and move to a closer cadence as the relationship grows.

Tier 01 — Monthly

Standing review.

A monthly working session with reporting, KPIs, and the time to interpret what the numbers are telling you.

Tier 02 — Project

Scoped engagement.

Cash-flow build-out, raise model, pricing analysis. Clearly scoped deliverables on a flat fee.

Tier 03 — Embedded

Weekly partner.

Closer to a part-time leadership role than an outsourced service. For businesses in growth or transition.

"Having a numbers-fluent partner on the bench changes the texture of every consequential decision."
