💸 Your company runs on cash—it’s the heart of your business. 💸 And a healthy profit margin? That’s how you know you’re succeeding. 💸 Unfortunately, many business owners aren’t always sure what their profit margin is, or even what a good margin looks like for their industry. We're here to help with that! We can clarify your financials so that you can make better business decisions and increase your profitability.

We've often seen entrepreneurs struggle to understand their books. It's understandable; many business owners are Type-A personalities who may hesitate to ask for help in areas outside their expertise. However, avoiding seeking help can lead to missed opportunities for cost savings and financial optimization. ✅ For example, consider a scenario where a business owner is reviewing their financial statements and notices a significant increase in operating expenses. Without understanding the underlying reasons, they might overlook potential cost-saving measures, such as renegotiating contracts or optimizing resource allocation. ✅ On top of that, we know that 82% of businesses fail due to cash flow issues. If you're unsure about how to interpret your financials, it's a good time to start a conversation with us.

PIVOT! ➡️ If your goals no longer seem feasible . . . ➡️ If market conditions have changed to make your business plan no longer viable . . . ➡️ If margin declines are eating up your profit . . . You need a new plan based on reliable metrics.

➡️ According to Forbes, "The right time to hire a CFO is when the business exceeds one million of annual revenue or when the business is funded by private investors. The good news is that you won’t need a full-time CFO until reaching $50 million or more of annual revenue." ✅ Also, a company should hire a Fractional CFO if it is unclear about its KPIs (metrics), struggling to set realistic targets, and unsure about when to hire and what it can afford. ✅ Another common issue is that a company doesn't know what it should charge for its product/service. We create transparency so that companies can see how their operating costs and direct costs relate to their sales. 💡 Often a simple solution emerges from the data. Raise the price of a product. Cut costs. Outsource shipping. PLUS, we can save immediately you money. How? We are less expensive than hiring a full-time CFO. And with a true financial expert on your team, you'll be able to make better, more informed financial decisions. #fractionalCFO #strategicplanning #CFO
