Well Now, There's Four Less Things To Worry About.
Clarity and Organization
Virtually every engagement begins by restoring fundamentals to the financial system. We clean up missing data and ensure existing systems work properly and interface seamlessly. We create financial infrastructure that efficiently delivers the information you need. Just as important, we build it for scaling.
Planning and Analysis
Once the fundamentals are in place, the next step is analyzing the known and projecting into the future. We brainstorm, build scenario plans, and project how the business can grow, then build a roadmap to make the growth path clear for all stakeholders.
Financial Stakeholder Management
It's critical that your financial thinking is communicated effectively to stakeholders for buy-in and support. We put systems in place to ensure investors, banks, and funding partners are kept apprised of key information in a timely and responsible manner. What's more, we act as your 'financial translators', communicating complex information in an easy-to-understand manner.
Advisory and Coaching
Once we've achieved stable, predictable growth, we pivot from hands-on involvement to strategic advice, coaching, and confidence building.
"If your dreams do not scare you, they are not big enough."

Beyond the Bottom Line.
As a start-up founder with skills in the content of my venture, but not the financials, Nick has quickly become an integral advisor. His unique lens brings clarity to the financial strategy, which shapes and strengthens the entire venture. Through working with Nick, I've consistently felt more focused on the next steps I need to take for the venture to move ahead. Nick has an impressive ability to dig into issues, even in new areas, and pick out the relevant information to analyze. His financial knowledge and strategic thinking bring great value.
Nick is also very easy to work with. In our conversations, I've found he is open and honest about his plans and his values, making it easier to see the true areas of alignment that are needed to support a long-term working relationship. He is curious and asks great questions, and is resourceful when it comes to answering those questions. I particularly appreciate Nick's ability to give practical suggestions on how to move forward even when the situation is far from straightforward.
I’m a creative director by trade. The skillset of people in my line of work don’t tend to the financial or organizational, to put it mildly. As a result, even when my company was making money, I didn’t have a solid grasp of what we were making, what we were spending, or how we were planning to improve the picture. And when things slowed down, as they invariably did through normal business cycles, my financial situation went south - fast.
Nick French changed that.
He not only forced me to look at my numbers weekly, but he gave me numbers to look at that I could understand. He also helped me chart a path to sustainable growth - a dramatic turn from my ‘hunter gatherer’ thinking. Today, I know my P&L, I have a solid, up to the minute bookkeeping system in place, I have a plan for 2025, and I am feeling strong and focused.
Beyond that, though, Nick has made a profound difference. During the high interest / low investment slowdown of 2024, he helped me reposition my company’s offering to align more closely with the needs of my entrepreneur clients. This is where Nick is in a class of his own. He’s a business thinker who is both professional and creative. And his advice comes with exactly the right amount of empathy to spur people with fragile egos into action.
I would recommend Nick’s services to any entrepreneur who is blocked and doesn’t want to stay that way.
Your Questions Answered
Find answers to common questions about our fractional CFO services and how we can help.
At a point, you should. But if you're in growth mode, it may be advantageous to engage the most senior talent possible on a fractional basis, rather than hiring a more junior person full time. You need senior, seasoned thinkers more than ever, but you don't need the financial burden of a full-time senior CFO.
Think of us as your bookkeeper's new best friend. We'll work together with them to dive deep into your numbers, uncover hidden growth potential, and make sure every dollar counts. (And don't worry, we'll gently nudge them towards the 21st century if needed.)
You aren't giving up any control. Like any good business partner, our job is to take on the jobs that aren't in your zone of expertise - so you can focus on what you do best. Our clients normally reflect back that their experience working with us creates a feeling of freedom, not anxiety.
When your company attains a certain size and level of sophistication, you'll be ready for a full-time CFO. As our clients attest, we will be the first to let you know when you've crossed that threshold.
All of our work is reviewed by a credentialed CPA and we regularly enhance our expertise with training. We are aware of the nuances of finance and regulatory in an entrepreneurial environment. Our reputation is staked on delivering transparent, credible results that comply with all regulations.
We enjoy the variety of working with multiple clients. And being fractional allows us to target clients who need specifically what our expertise provides.
Yes and no. Our governing bodies require us to have our clients sign Engagement Letters. These agreements confirm our confidentiality and allow our clients to cancel the engagement with written notice. You are not locked in! We know our service is why you will continue working with us.
