Fractional CFO Program

Know your Numbers. Maximize your Profit

The Problem:

Growing companies need CFOs, controllers, and payroll experts but can’t afford a full-time bench, leaving them to hit growth ceilings, missed opportunities, costly mistakes, and stay stuck in DIY mode while they don’t know where their profit is.

Our Gifts:

  • Investor qualified full service bookkeeping, reconciliation, accrual, controller and CFO team delivering real time paced reports and on time closed financials.

  • Fractional Access: Instead of hiring 3–4 high-priced executives, you get proven experts on your team, only when you need them.

  • Speed to Value: Immediate clarity, faster execution, faster growth.

The Ascension Path (DIY → DWY → DFY)

DWY (Fractional Services):

  • Fractional CFO: budget, cash flow, P&L oversight

  • Fractional Payroll: compliance, controls, process fixes

  • Strategic calls with specialists

  • Integrated with your org chart + scorecards

DFY (Platform):

Everything in DWY plus full implementation and management of payroll, marketing, and finance systems with complete performance dashboards and accountability reporting.

What’s it costing you right now?

You’d need to hire three separate executives, a CFO, a payroll manager,, and then cover onboarding fees, benefits, and turnover costs, all while still trusting people without proven P&L results.

Picture this.

You’re growing, but you know you need sharper financial controls, payroll compliance, and a real marketing plan to scale.

So what happens?

You start shopping for “experts.”

  • A CFO to get control of your numbers and build a Profit First Plan.

  • A Payroll Manager to fix compliance gaps.

Each one comes with their own salary, their own onboarding, their own systems to learn.

And the kicker? You’re paying full-time salaries for part-time problems.

That means:

  • $12K–$20K/month for a CFO

  • $6K/month for payroll

  • $3-4K a month for bookkeeping team.

By the time you add it up, you’re burning $25K–$40K every single month plus benefits, taxes, and turnover risk.

And after all that?

You’re still left wondering if you hired the right people, if they’ll integrate, and if the work will actually move the needle.

Retail Value (Alternatives)

  • $30K–$50K/month for 3–4 full-time hires

  • Still no guarantee they integrate or perform

  • Most properly staffed accounting departments cost 1.5% of Revenue +++

The Offer

  • Investor Experienced Financial team.

  • Pricing: under 1% of revenue (performance-based)

  • No onboarding fees. No bloated retainers.

Guarantees

If you do not have either a real time financial paced report or Closed Financials by the 15th, completely free that month.
