What is the difference between a bookkeeper, a controller and a fractional CFO?
A bookkeeper records what happened: transactions, reconciliations and statements. A controller makes sure those numbers are right, on time and under control: a monthly close by a deadline, reviewed reconciliations, payroll and sales tax oversight, and monthly reporting. A fractional CFO uses the numbers to decide what happens next: cash forecasting, budgeting, pricing, cash strategy, lender and investor work, and tax strategy.
How much does a fractional CFO cost?
Across the market in 2026, light founder-facing CFO engagements typically run $2,500–$4,000 a month and standard engagements $4,000–$8,000. Our CFO Partner tier is $5,500 a month for businesses doing $2.5M to $5M, and includes the bookkeeping and controller work, a 13-week cash forecast, budgeting, lender and investor reporting, and coordination with your tax plan.
What is the Clarity Diagnostic?
A one-time, $1,500 review of your books, cash, margins and tax exposure, delivered as a clarity map with three dated actions. If you start a monthly engagement within 30 days, the full fee is credited to it.
Do you bill hourly?
No. Every engagement has a fixed fee quoted up front. Monthly services are month-to-month, and tax strategy plans are annual and can be billed monthly.
