Outsource CFO

Virtual or outsource CFO services can provide small and medium sized businesses with an alternative to a traditional full-time CFO. Most small and medium size businesses need the skill set of an experienced CFO, but often only at critical junctures such as during an acquisition or only part-time. Unfortunately, the cost of hiring a traditional full-time in-house CFO is too much compared to the value created. Virtual or outsourced CFO services are an alternative that provide the best of both worlds.

Virtual or outsourced CFOs can provide all the same services as traditional CFOs with the added benefit of increased flexibility and decreased cost. If you need CFO-level talent, but only part-time such as one day per week, one week per month, or on a project basis, consider engaging a virtual or outsourced CFO.

Here are just a sample of the services that virtual and outsourced CFOs can provide.

  • Financial Analysis and Operational Results Analysis – Finding trends, operating more efficiently, and tracking key performance indicators to assist in future decision-making.
  • Improve Profitability – Assess operations for process inefficiencies such as excesses in labor, materials, or misallocation of resources that may be costing your company money.
  • Strategic Planning – Identify and quantify the important factors that will affect your future growth and success.
  • Forecasting and Budgeting – Create a new forecast or budget process or improve your existing one; a virtual CFO can help you formulate plans that are accurate and reliable.
  • Cash Flow Projections – Always know your cash position in the future so you can keep your lenders and vendors happy as well as prepare for expansions, downturns, major repairs, or fixed asset acquisitions.
  • Organizational Structure – Create the optimal organizational structure, so your business or a certain department operates like a well-oiled machine.
  • Financial Staff – While you have a staff that handles the day to day financial transactions, you need to focus on other aspects of the business rather than managing the accounting function. An outsourced CFO can manage and train these staff members on or off-site.
  • Acquisitions – Understand if an acquisition makes financial sense, understand the valuations involved or plan for the onboarding and integration.

Entrepreneur’s Journey

First things first: we’ll help you to define your life’s ambition: what you really want from your business – the numbers that really matters to you.

There are a few significant signs that it might be time to consider a part-time CFO for your company. Some of these include:

Periods of rapid growth: A CFO can help scale your business by focusing on capital, liquidity, and free cash flow. Their expertise can ensure your rapid growth is fiscally sound and sustainable in the long-term.
New product development: You can benefit from a CFO’s market assessment skills and their ability to work with marketing and sales partners. Their analytical ability will help you get the best return on investment when it comes time to launch your new product.
You want to boost profitability: In this instance, a CFO can understand the cost of various projects, track the right metrics, and use data to streamline the company. When the CFO understands the bigger picture, they can set your company on the right track towards long-term growth. They can even get you back on track if your business has become stagnant after several years of maintaining the status quo with less successful results.

Why Use Part-Time CFO Services?

Hiring full-time employees is very expensive and can be risky. With the advent of cloud-based tools that make collaboration easier, companies can now have ready access to a Part-Time CFO resource. Accounting departments are typically busy and at capacity with the day-to-day tasks of the business. A Part-Time CFO offers built-in efficiencies in purchasing the skill sets and bandwidth needed at any particular time.

What Do You Get with a Part-Time CFO?

With a Part-Time CFO level resource, there is increased oversight of the accounting department. Through the development and refinement of policies, procedures, and technology, a company can benefit from increased efficiencies, reduced timelines, and added scalability. The company also benefits from a higher level analysis with the additional reporting metrics of projections, profitability, and scenario planning. The CFO role improves the communication with lenders and investors and supports the operational functions of the business with robust data reporting and metrics. In small to mid-sized business, they will often be very hands on, and possess excellent communication skills.

The importance and breadth of the CFO’s role continues to grow, shaping a future CFO looks very different from that of years past. Meaning, the Chief Financial Officer [of the Future] will need a wide range of skills and capabilities to prepare for the opportunities and challenges ahead. Whether you are a current CFO or a future finance leader, continuing your personal and professional development will be critical for success.

Most importantly, you don’t need to let go of your current CFO to attain the CFO of the future. If they are willing and eager to learn the tools required to take your business into the future, then train them. However, if your company has yet to hire a CFO or has been looking to replace the current employee, then be sure to look for these qualifications in your applicants:

  • Broad business knowledge
  • Operational experience
  • Leadership qualities
  • Strategic mindset
  • Strong communication skills…and all the traits mentioned earlier!

Remember, for a CFO to be successful in the future, they will need to be a leader in a workplace that is continuously changing. They must be more than “the finance guy,” “the numbers gal,” or “the Excel wizard.” As technology grows and cybersecurity becomes more of a threat, the CFO must be adaptable and utilize the technologies that will help their company to grow. If the company’s CFO can understand that communication will get them farther than keeping their nose in the books, you may have a modern CFO on your team.
