Virtual CFO (Budgeting • Cashflow • Controls)
For founders who need finance leadership without a full-time CFO. We translate numbers into decisions: cashflow clarity, cost control, and forecast-based planning.

- Budgeting & variance analysis
- Process improvements & internal controls
Best for
- Businesses scaling from “founder-managed finance” to structured finance
- High vendor volume, multiple payment cycles, or tight working capital
- Teams needing SOPs and strong month-end closing discipline
