Fractional CFO
The call you make before you commit
The problem
The most valuable financial work happens in the two weeks before a decision, which is exactly when most owners have nobody to call.
Why it matters
Decisions compound. One well-modeled hiring or expansion decision usually pays for a year of advisory work on its own.
How to know if you have this
- You discuss major decisions with nobody who understands the numbers
- Options are compared on gut feel rather than models
- Post-decision results are never reviewed against expectations
- You defer decisions because you are unsure of the consequences
How Advisory Motion solves it
- 01Model each decision on cash, profit and capacity before commitment
- 02Present options side by side with the assumptions visible
- 03Name the trigger conditions that would change the answer
- 04Review the outcome afterward so the next model is better
Illustrative example
The third option
Buy or lease was the question. The model surfaced a third path — a shorter-term rental through the seasonal peak — that cost a fraction of either.
