Before & After

What the work actually looks like.

Anonymized examples from real client engagements. These are the deliverables — not descriptions of deliverables.

LinkedIn About Section — Before & After

Fractional CFO specializing in PE-backed industrial services · Anonymized

Before

"Experienced finance executive with 20+ years of progressive leadership in financial planning & analysis, corporate development, and strategic advisory. Proven track record of driving growth and operational excellence across multiple industries. Focused on driving financial performance across multiple industries. CPA, MBA, former Big 4. Open to fractional and interim CFO opportunities."

No ICPNo outcomesGeneric languageReads like a resume

After

"PE-backed industrial services companies call me when the numbers don't tell the story the board needs to hear."

"In the last 3 years, I've helped 6 portfolio companies build the financial infrastructure that turns operator intuition into board-ready reporting — monthly closes from 21 days to 5, FP&A functions built from scratch, and lender packages that got $40M+ in refinancing done in half the expected timeline."

"If your PortCo CFO seat is open or your current finance function isn't giving the operating team what it needs, that's the problem I solve. 90-day engagement minimum. Results start in the first 30."

LinkedIn Post — With Engagement Results

Written for a fractional CFO targeting SaaS founders · Week 3 of content engine

The CEO said: "We're growing 40% YoY. We don't need a CFO yet."

Six months later, they burned through $2.1M in runway they didn't know was at risk.

Here's what I see every time a SaaS company waits too long to bring in finance leadership:

→ Revenue recognition is a mess

→ Burn rate is tracked in a spreadsheet that's 3 months stale

→ The board deck is built the night before the meeting

→ Nobody can answer "what's our CAC payback period?"

Growth doesn't fix financial infrastructure. It exposes the gaps in it.

If you're scaling past $5M ARR without a finance function, you're not saving money. You're borrowing time.

Branded Case Study — Sample Deliverable

PE-backed healthcare services PortCo · Fractional CFO engagement · Anonymized

Situation

$45M revenue healthcare services company, 18 months post-acquisition. PE sponsor frustrated with lack of financial visibility. Monthly close taking 25+ days. No rolling forecast. Board reporting was backward-looking and incomplete.

Challenge

The operating team was strong, but the finance function was built for a $15M company. The sponsor needed board-ready reporting, a 13-week cash flow model, and a CFO who could translate operational performance into the language investors use.

Approach

Rebuilt the monthly close process (25 days → 7). Implemented a 13-week rolling cash flow forecast. Created a board reporting package that connected operational KPIs to financial outcomes. Trained the existing accounting team to maintain the new cadence.

Results

25 → 7 days

Sponsor Quote

"Within 60 days we had the financial visibility we'd been asking for since close. The board reporting alone changed how we manage the asset."
