Fractional CFO Leadership

Stop guessing
at your own
numbers.

Payroll. The tax bill. The next hire. The loan you are about to sign. You are calling all of it on numbers you do not fully trust, and you find out what it cost thirty days later.

What To Expect
You Pick
We Bring the Candidates
You choose the CFO who sits in the seat. If none of them are right, we keep looking.
Flat Fee
No Hourly Meter
The seat without the base, bonus, equity, benefits, payroll taxes, and severance attached to it. You know the number before you start.
Month to Month
Stay Because It Is Working
We hold one month as a deposit. Your last month comes out of it and the final invoice settles up either way.
30 min
No Pitch, No Slides
One honest conversation about your numbers to see whether we're the right fit for you.

Hard to steer when all you have is the rearview. It costs you three ways.

Time

You go around the block seven times to get where you wanted.

Fuel

Wrong turns burn money making up lost ground, when you could have taken the direct route.

The Crash

What is coming around the corner never shows up in the rearview.

Put a CFO in the seat.

Your numbers aren't wrong. They're just misleading.

Four ways your
numbers get clear

Ready to stop
guessing?

Three things quietly eat owner-led businesses: tax, debt, and money that goes missing. These four fix all three. Where we start depends on what is bleeding.

01
Know Where You Stand

One page that tells you what you have, what you owe, and what is coming. No more finding out in March what happened in October.

02
Walk In Ready

Banks and buyers say no to messy books faster than they say no to bad numbers. Yours will be clean, defensible, and ready before you need them to be.

03
No More Surprises

No surprise tax bill. No covenant you tripped without knowing. No Friday where you are wondering whether payroll clears.

04
Keep More of It

Tax you should not be paying. Debt costing more than it should. Money walking out the back door. One client was letting excess cash sit in a non-interest-bearing account. That is now $60,000 a year in interest income they were not earning before.

From first call
to what's coming

No two engagements run the same way, because no two businesses have the same needs. What does not change is how we approach it.

01
First
The Scoping Call

We find where the pain is and where the value is hiding. You leave knowing what is actually costing you and what it would take to fix it.

02
Next
Your CFO Takes the Chair

We bring you fractional CFOs matched to your stage and your problem. You pick one, and they arrive with the team and resources to run it.

03
Then
The Numbers Start Working

Clean books, a forecast you trust, and the handful of numbers that actually run your business, all pointed at where you said you want to go.

04
Until You Don't Need Us
Operating Partnership

Monthly closes, board prep, investor updates, and decision support, for as long as the seat earns its cost. Most engagements run one to two years. When you have outgrown it, we help you hire the full-time CFO and hand the chair over.

You built it.
We help you scale it.

You do not need a consultant who bills hours and emails PDFs. You need someone who has sat in the chair, built the function from nothing, carried a company through a raise, and been across the table on thirteen acquisitions. That is the standard every operator we place is measured against.

Whether you are pre-revenue or running $150M, we match you with a CFO for your stage and your problem, and you pick the one who takes the seat.

The conviction behind it is simple. When you can see your numbers, you decide faster, you sleep better, and you stop paying for the things you could not see. Logan Thompson is a licensed CPA in Orlando, Florida and the firm's founding principal.

We brought Logan in under real time pressure, needing a fractional CFO who could get up to speed fast, ask the right questions, and deliver work our client could act on immediately. He dug into five years of sales data to identify which lead sources were actually driving closed business, giving our client a fact-based view of marketing ROI instead of relying on the promises of ad sales reps. The reports were client-ready right out of the gate, and the numbers were accurate. The engagement went so well it strengthened our own standing with the client. Logan is our first call for fractional CFO work, and we recommend him without hesitation.

When our accounting and finance department needed steady, capable leadership during a period of significant transition, Logan answered the call, and then some. What stood out most was the sheer breadth of expertise Logan brought to the table. Whatever the challenge (strategic thinking, technical depth, or simply rolling up the sleeves and getting things done), he had the tools and the temperament to handle it. Bringing genuine competence to every corner of the finance organization was invaluable.

Logan brought both strategic thinking and tactical execution to our team during a time of need. He applied this rare combination of skills to help us better see and communicate our vision, then develop a plan of action to execute.

Why owners
call us first

You need real finance leadership. You don't need another six-figure salary on your payroll to get it.

Your CFO Comes With a Team

Your CFO arrives with people to hand work to. That keeps your senior hours on the decisions that move the business, not on running payroll and booking journal entries.

We Don't Just Report It, We Build It

Analysis is the easy part. You get the reporting, the dashboards, the forecast models, and the habits that keep them running long after the engagement ends.

You Pay for What You Need

Sizing a finance function is not your job, it is ours. Scoped to the problem, from a few hours a month to weekly support, and you will hear it from us when you need less.

What founders
ask us first

What does a fractional CFO actually do? +

You get the same finance leadership a full-time CFO gives you: reporting, forecasting, capital strategy, investor relations, and KPIs. You just get it sized to what your business needs right now, without carrying the fully loaded cost of a full-time executive: base, bonus, equity, benefits, payroll taxes, time off, and severance.

How is FFG different from a bookkeeper or accountant? +

Bookkeepers record transactions. Accountants prepare tax filings. We do something different: we interpret your financial picture, build forward-looking models, and help you make better business decisions. Think of it as the strategic layer above accounting.

What stage of company is this best suited for? +

We work with owner-led businesses from startup through $150M in revenue. Whether you are pre-revenue, getting ready to raise capital, or sitting at $150M and looking at an exit, we have an expert for that stage.

Do you work with specific industries? +

Yes and no. We are not boxed into a few sectors, and we are not industry-agnostic either. Through a national network of several hundred fractional CFOs, we go recruit against your situation, and in most cases that means someone with direct experience in your industry. Sometimes the better answer is a specific skill set or simply the right chemistry with you and your team, and we will tell you when that is the case. What you will never get from us is a generalist learning your business on your dime.

Will I work directly with Logan? +

Your engagement is owned by a fractional CFO matched to your stage and your problem, and that CFO is accountable for every facet of the work. Scheduled business reviews keep the firm accountable at the relationship level, so you always have somewhere to go above the day-to-day. Logan keeps a small book of business personally, so his own availability is limited, but every engagement is held to his standard.

How do engagements typically work? +

It starts with a scoping call, where we work through what is hurting and where the money is being left on the table. From there we recommend the best-fit fractional CFO for those specific problems, along with the strategy, playbook, and resources they bring with them. That match is the whole product. A CFO who has already fixed your problem three times moves faster than one figuring it out on your clock. From there we shape the work around you: project work, advisory work, scoped weekly support, or retained search.

What does it cost? +

Pricing is scoped to each engagement based on depth of involvement and deliverables. Monthly retainers typically range from $5K to $15K+/month depending on scope. We're transparent about pricing from the first conversation.

How do I get started? +
