Qualified In-House Financial Leadership at a Fraction of the Cost Fractional, value added financial leadership bridges the financial expertise gap as businesses transition through growth. Most small businesses don’t need and can’t afford the six figure salary of an experienced, full time, designated controller. Many medium sized businesses don’t need and can’t afford an even more costly experienced, full time, designated CFO. But it is precisely when a company is growing that it needs in house financial expertise the most. Growth is cash intensive. Internally, you can only build a growing company on a solid financial foundation. Externally, raising debt or equity financing requires the ability to mitigate investment /lending risk. Having qualified financial leadership in house provides that credibility and expertise that banks, lenders and investors look for.
