Fractional CFO

"Too often businesses create spreadsheets outside of the accounting system to track things, creating an inefficient use of staff time and inconsistencies between the accounting ledgers and the spreadsheets. Had the set-up of the accounting system been done with the business reporting requirements in mind, the data/information being tracked in these outside Excel sheets could have been produced and run directly from the accounting system—saving on time and ensuring having consistent reporting."

We provide Fractional CFO services to small and medium-sized businesses. Employing a Fractional CFO (Chief Financial Officer) gives a business the ability to have a part-time financial expert without having to hire an internal CFO.

There are a host of reasons why your business may need Fractional CFO services.

​

• Your business is not quite the size that can afford, or that may need, a full-time in-house CFO.

• Your business has a bookkeeper, but you would like a higher-level accounting professional to periodically oversee the financial operations and accounting.

• Your business needs guidance on creating financial budgets, developing forecasts, or other financial strategic type assistance.

• Your business has a special project that requires a more senior, CFO type individual (examples: starting up a business and the need to set up the accounting; changing accounting systems; streamlining process flows; writing accounting procedural manuals; training employees).

• Your business needs an interim part-time CFO due to the existing CFO in-house position being either vacant and/or the current in-house CFO is on a leave of absence.

On a part-time basis, The Barson Group can provide the Fractional CFO services needed to help your business. We tailor our services to meet your needs.
