FAQ

Common questions about fractional CFO services

What is a fractional CFO?+
A fractional CFO is an experienced Chief Financial Officer who works with your business on a part-time or project basis. You get senior financial leadership—strategic advisory, financial modeling, board reporting, and hands-on expertise—without the $200K-$400K+ cost of a full-time CFO hire.
How much do fractional CFO services cost?+
Engagements typically range from $3,500 to $10,000+ per month depending on scope, complexity, and hours required. We offer flexible structures including monthly retainers, project-based pricing, and hourly consulting to match your budget and needs.
How does a remote-first fractional CFO work?+
We integrate directly into your existing tools—Slack, Teams, Zoom, shared dashboards—and maintain a regular cadence of weekly check-ins, monthly reporting, and quarterly strategy sessions. For clients across the Northeast Corridor and California, we also offer in-person meetings as needed.
How is a fractional CFO different from a bookkeeper or accountant?+
Bookkeepers and accountants focus on recording past transactions and maintaining compliance. A fractional CFO is forward-looking—focused on financial strategy, forecasting, capital planning, and translating your numbers into insights that drive growth and profitability.
What size companies benefit from a fractional CFO?+
Businesses generating $1M-$50M+ in revenue benefit most from fractional CFO services. Whether you're a startup preparing for a capital raise, a growing agency needing profitability analysis, or an established company optimizing operations—we tailor our support to your stage.
How quickly can I get started?+
