Helping emerging CPG founders know their numbers | Your Brand Deserves a Long Shelf Life™ | Fractional CFO | Growth & Community
Interested in starting your own firm or becoming a fractional CFO? Here's what worked for me. Exploring the fractional CFO role: - Read "So You Want to be a Fractional CFO" by Tom Schultz - Listened to every single episode of The CFO Report by Michael King Niching down: - Talked to CPG founders to understand their needs and refine my offer - Listened to many many podcast episodes about CPG - Invested money and time in attending events and creating/nurturing relationships - Took work at an introductory rate, then did my best to "wow" them Marketing: - Invested in great branding from Kelsey Scofield - Took Dr. Melissa Henault's free LinkedIn Intro Course (and put it to work) - Built an MVP website myself with testimonials to my work gathered from any and all willing parties who could speak to it Tom Schultz and Michael King both have coaching programs.
