What to know about Fractional cfos
A fractional CFO is a senior finance person who works with a company part-time: a few days a month, a fixed day a week, or full-time for a defined stretch. Growing businesses reach a point where the bookkeeping is fine but nobody owns cash flow forecasting, pricing, lender and investor reporting, or the numbers a board actually needs. Hiring a full-time chief financial officer is a large commitment, and a fractional arrangement is a way to get that judgement sooner.
