Cost of Hiring a Virtual CFO

Most small businesses cannot afford hiring a traditional full time CFO, but outsourcing makes it possible.

We don’t charge our clients hourly fees because we believe in transparent work-based pricing. Hourly fees incentive working longer instead of working smarter. Instead we charge one flat rate per month. We’ll also never lock you into a long term contract. We offer three options for hiring an outsourced CFO. Choose either annual (year end review and budget for the next 12 months, per project basis or ongoing. Once you signup for ongoing CFO services, we’ll only ask you to commit to at least 12 consecutive months at a time.
