Why Startups Under $1 Million Should Consider a Fractional CFO
Startups under $1 million in revenue face a critical transition point: too complex for DIY spreadsheets, but not quite ready for a full-time CFO. A fractional CFO fills that gap—offering strategic financial support on a flexible, part-time basis. Here’s what a fractional CFO can do for early-stage companies:
Cash Flow Management: Stay on top of burn rate and avoid surprise shortfalls.
Budgeting & Forecasting: Create clear projections to guide hiring, product development, and fundraising.
Pricing Strategy: Make sure your margins support growth, not losses.
Fundraising Support: Build investor-ready models, pitch decks, and cap table analysis.
Financial Systems Setup: Implement QuickBooks, Xero, and other tools the right way from the start.
Many fractional CFOs tailor services for startups below $1M—offering project-based or hourly plans. You don’t need to wait until you're scaling fast to get the financial clarity you need now.
