FAQ
What is a virtual CFO?
A virtual CFO is a contracted financial expert who provides high-level financial strategy, systems analysis and design, and operational optimizations remotely, offering flexibility and cost-efficiency for businesses that do not require a full-time, in-house CFO.
Why hire a virtual CFO?
Businesses hire virtual CFOs to gain access to experienced financial strategic planning and management without the overhead cost of a full-time executive, helping to drive growth, improve profitability, and manage financial risks more effectively.
Is outsourcing my CFO a good idea?
Outsourcing CFO functions can be a strategic move for businesses looking to scale, requiring sophisticated financial expertise without the full-time expense, especially when internal resources are limited or when navigating complex financial landscapes.
What is the difference between a virtual CFO and a CFO?
The primary difference is that a virtual CFO works remotely on a part-time or as-needed basis, providing strategic financial services, whereas a traditional CFO is typically a full-time, in-house executive responsible for the company’s financial operations and strategy.
Does my small business need a virtual CFO?
Small businesses may need a virtual CFO if they are experiencing growth that requires sophisticated financial strategy, facing complex financial challenges, or when the owner lacks the time or expertise to manage the financial aspects of the business.
When is the right time to hire a virtual CFO?
The right time to hire a virtual CFO is when a business is experiencing growth that demands strategic financial planning, facing funding or cash flow challenges, or when preparing for a significant financial event such as a merger or acquisition.
What are the advantages of using external CFO services?
Advantages include access to expert financial advice, cost savings compared to a full-time CFO, flexibility, and the ability to scale services up or down based on the business’s needs, improving financial management and strategic decision-making.
What’s Included in a Typical Outsourced CFO Services?
Services typically include financial forecasting, strategy, budgeting, cash flow management, financial reporting, and analysis, as well as guidance on capital structure, funding, and risk management, tailored to the specific needs of the business.

Can a virtual CFO also do our bookkeeping?
While some virtual CFOs may offer bookkeeping as part of their services, their primary focus is on high-level financial strategy and management. Businesses might need to retain bookkeeping services separately to handle day-to-day financial transactions.
What do our virtual CFO services cost?
The cost of virtual CFO services varies based on the scope of work, the size of the business, and the level of expertise required, with businesses typically paying a monthly retainer or an hourly rate that is often more cost-effective than hiring a full-time CFO.
