Turnaround
The ProblemSomething isn't working, and it needs to get fixed now. You're losing money and you don't know exactly why, or how much time you have left to fix it. Cash is tight, and "tight" isn't a number you can act on.
You'll get a real picture of where the business actually stands (not a guess, not a hope) and a plan you can run with.
Different businesses, same result: the business doesn't just survive, it thrives.

Barton Publishing did $40M in revenue and was losing money. Every channel looked profitable on its own, but the business wasn't. We measured each part, cut what didn't make money, and went from −5% to 15% net margin. Today it's profitable, lean, and self-sustaining, and Joe spends more time with his grandkids than in the office. "You didn't just save my business," he told us. "You gave me my life back."

A base fee at near cost keeps us running. Most of our profit comes from a share of the EBITDA improvement that follows.
If the business doesn't get better, our upside disappears. We're in it with you.
Most fractional CFOs, consultants, and coaches get paid the same whether you recover or not. Ask them how they get paid. Then ask us.
Founders and advisors keep reacting the same way. One executive coach, who's worked with entrepreneurs for almost 20 years, told us he'd never seen a fee structure like this.
