Virtual CFO
Virtual CFO
All of the CFO, none of the commute or the headcount — senior finance leadership delivered remotely, with a real product behind it.
A virtual CFO delivers the full scope of finance leadership remotely: monthly reporting, forecasting, covenant and KPI monitoring, and the strategic calls — without a desk, a salary, or a recruiting cycle.
The phrase 'virtual' often hides a thin offering. Ours is the opposite: a proprietary analysis stack produces board-grade deliverables, a client portal holds your reports and history, and a named operator owns the relationship. The 'technology-driven' claim is a working product, not a tagline.
Remote doesn't mean distant. You get a standing line to the same person every month — the one who knows your covenants, your margins, and your board's questions.
What lands each month
Concrete deliverables with a defined scope — so you see exactly what you get, not an open hourly meter.
Remote monthly close support
We manage the close cadence and review without ever needing to be on-site.
Portal-delivered reporting
Board packs and KPIs live in a portal with history — not lost in your inbox.
13-week cash forecast
Rolling runway visibility with scenarios, refreshed every month.
Covenant & margin watch
Continuous monitoring with plain-English flags before anything breaches.
Scheduled working sessions
Recurring live sessions for board prep, lender calls, and planning.
Why not a staffing firm
Most 'virtual CFO' offerings are a spreadsheet and a monthly email. Ours ships a real product — analysis stack, portal, branded reporting — plus a single accountable operator, which a staffing match-and-bill model can't replicate.
Case study · Industrial / consumer
$80M
private company sale led through finance to close
Ownership wanted to run a sale process but the finance function wasn't ready for diligence — reporting was inconsistent and there was no clean model a buyer could underwrite.

Is a virtual CFO as effective as someone on-site?
For most $2M–$250M companies, yes. The work — closing, forecasting, reporting, lender management — is information work that an experienced operator does remotely. You gain access to senior judgment you couldn't justify hiring full-time.
How do we communicate?
Scheduled working sessions plus a standing line for the calls that can't wait. Reporting and history live in your portal, so nothing depends on digging through email.
What systems do you support?
QuickBooks, Xero, NetSuite, and Sage via read-only, revocable connections.
How much does a Virtual CFO cost?
A virtual CFO retainer starts around $5K/month and commonly runs $8K–$12K by scope. Everything is delivered remotely, so you pay for senior judgment and a real reporting product, not desk time. Full tiers are on the Pricing page.
