Run your finances like a 9-figure enterprise without hiring a 6-figure CFO

“Starting is exciting, but growing with the right support is where the magic happens.”

How elite operators take over your finance function, unlock six figures of hidden EBITDA, and give you board-level clarity every month

If you are like most founders, finance is a swirl of numbers that never quite resolves into action.

Invoices go out. Cash comes in. Costs creep. You “feel” the month… but you cannot point to the exact levers that add another 100k to 300k of EBITDA this year without more strain on the team.

Now imagine a different twelve months.
Your dashboard opens with three needles that matter. Pricing is sharpened. Waste is cut at the source. Working capital breathes. You know, by quarter, how much EBITDA you are on track to create and precisely where it comes from. Your board asks tougher questions — and you answer calmly, with proof.

Hold that picture in your mind.

Because in the next few minutes you will see how our Fractional CFO team installs enterprise-grade finance in your business, how we have done it for companies from multinational shipping conglomerates to complex manufacturers and national retail chains, and how we routinely unlock six figures of hidden EBITDA without gambling on vanity growth.

Why typical finance setups stall your EBITDA

Most companies run accounting. Very few run finance.

• Accounting records history. It tells you what happened.

• Finance creates history. It tells you what will happen and how to bend the curve.

When your chart of accounts is messy, your pricing is blunt, and your cash conversion cycle is a mystery, you cannot scale profit on purpose. You make decisions in the fog. And fog is expensive.

What our Fractional CFO does differently

We drop a battle-tested CFO into your business with a compact team and a tight playbook.
Then we move from numbers to levers to cash.

• Diagnose and refactor your data so every line rolls up to clean, decision-ready KPIs.

• Engineer margin with pricing science, product mix, and cost architecture.

• Release cash from receivables, payables, and inventory without breaking supplier or customer relationships.

• Install forecast discipline so hiring, marketing, and capex line up with reality.

• Tighten the close so you have board-grade numbers by day 5 to 7, not day 25.

• Align tax and capital with your structure so profit kept is profit earned.

This is not theory. It is muscle memory built across heavy-asset logistics, multi-entity manufacturing, and high-velocity retail.

Where the extra six figures usually hide

• Pricing leakage. Discounts, legacy tiers, and value not captured.

• Unit economics blind spots. SKUs, lanes, customers, and channels that quietly bleed.

• Operational drag. Overtime patterns, freight classes, scrap, shrink, rework.

• Supplier terms. Missed volume breaks, indexation, and rebate math.

• Inventory latency. Safety stock set by fear, not data.

• Revenue recognition noise. Unbilled revenue and messy WIP that confuses decisions.

• Process gaps. A/R collections etiquette, A/P batching, buyer compliance fines.

• Forecast inertia. “Same as last quarter” budgets that lock in waste.

• Tax friction. Timing and structure that leak post-tax cash.

We find them, quantify them, and turn them into repeatable EBITDA.

What it feels like when this is working

Today
You are guessing. Your VP Ops argues with your controller about “the real margin.” Cash feels tight. Hiring feels risky.

90 days from engagement
COA rebuilt. KPI dashboard live. Pricing quick wins implemented. Collections cadence humming. You see the first 50k to 150k annualised EBITDA unlocked.

6 to 12 months
Forecast accuracy inside 5 to 10 percent. Margin per SKU or service line is engineered. Inventory turns improve. You report to your board with a clean narrative and a stronger cash position. The extra six figures are not a fluke — they are a system.

Proof of scope

Our CFO bench has sat in the seat for:

• A global shipping and freight group coordinating multi-currency cash, fuel hedging, and port fees.

• A multi-plant manufacturer with complex BOMs, yield variance, and long lead-time inventory.

• A national retail footprint with seasonality, shrink, and store-level P&Ls.

Complexity is not a blocker. It is where we do our best work.

Your deliverables

• Board-grade monthly pack with P&L by line and by product, cash flow, variance, and KPI bridge to EBITDA.

• Live operating dashboard covering pricing, mix, contribution margin, CCC, and forecast vs actuals.

• EBITDA roadmap with quantified wins, owners, and deadlines.

• Treasury and cash cadence that makes payroll, payables, and growth completely predictable.

• Clean close process so decisions are made on this month, not last quarter.
