CFO Services

A business that has just started or is expanding will require guidance and support. Business requires strategic and financial guidance to navigate challenging times or help with expansion and growth.

Most startups and sme’s businesses don’t have someone on staff qualified to serve in a CFO role, which means they will need outside guidance at some point unless they invest significant resources into filling that position.

An outsourced CFO is the ideal solution to overcome such challenges and equip your business with valuable benefits, for a fraction of the cost and without sacrifice of financial expertise.

Virtual CFO, CFO and Business coach services is a solution for a start-up or thriving business. These roles have similar responsibilities but can differ depending on your business requirement.

So what is a virtual CFO?

A virtual CFO (Chief Financial Officer) is an operational and financial professional who performs the services of a traditional chief financial officer (CFO). Instead of working for your business as a full-time employee, the virtual CFO works remotely, on a contractual, part-time schedule instead of delivering those services in person.

Small businesses often require the service of the virtual CFO due to not having enough duties for a full-time, in-house CFO to fulfil or justify the expense and headcount.

Virtual CFO services are a growing trend in 2021, especially in light of the COVID19 pandemic. Getting a startup or small business running efficiently and effectively may take some time, especially if your company lacks financial intelligence. In fact, a significant reason that small businesses fail in the first thirty-six months of operation is financial inability.

Nowadays finance and accounting functions, whether in-house or outsourced, are moving rapidly toward the use of more technology, cloud solutions and automation; the Covid-19 pandemic has only accelerated that trend. Thanks to cloud accounting solutions keep business owners connected to their data and their virtual CFO’s.
