Something 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.

We charge a base fee to cover our costs, and tie our profit to your growth.
A traditional advisor gets paid the same whether your business improves or not. We only make more when your EBITDA grows. Every fractional CFO, consultant, or coach we've compared this to gets paid the same either way. Ask them, then ask us how we're different.
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.
