Advisory Questions,
Answered Directly
What is the difference between a financial advisor and a CFO? +
A traditional financial advisor typically focuses on investments and personal finance. A CFO — which is what our fractional CFO service delivers — is a strategic business partner who oversees your entire financial operation: planning, cash flow, risk management, fundraising, and reporting. We operate as a member of your leadership team, not as an outside consultant.
How does fractional CFO pricing work? +
Our fractional CFO engagements are priced as monthly retainers, starting at $1,500/month depending on the scope of work and time commitment required. This is a fraction of the $180,000–$250,000 annual cost of a full-time CFO. We’ll scope your exact needs during the free discovery call and propose a flat-rate package before you commit to anything.
How long does a business valuation take? +
Most business valuations are completed within 2–3 weeks of receiving all financial documentation. Complex valuations for larger businesses or M&A purposes may take 3–5 weeks. Every valuation includes a full written report with methodology, assumptions, and supporting analysis — not just a number.
What size business do you work with? +
We serve businesses from startups with $500K in revenue to established companies doing $50M+. Our advisory model is designed to scale — the tools and frameworks we use adapt to your size and complexity. If you’re wondering whether you’re “big enough” for advisory services, the answer is almost always yes — the earlier you start, the greater the impact.
Do you work with startups seeking funding? +
Yes, and it’s one of our specialties. We’ve helped clients raise over $120M combined in VC, angel, and debt financing. We prepare investor-ready financials, pitch-deck financial models, valuation support, and due diligence documentation — and we sit in on investor meetings when needed.
Can I combine Advisory with your Tax or AI services? +
Absolutely — and most of our best client relationships do exactly that. Combining advisory with tax planning and AI automation creates a fully integrated financial operation where strategy, compliance, and technology all reinforce each other. Bundled clients also receive priority response times and discounted rates across services.
