Fractional CFO
We act as your CFO: reports, budgets, big-spending plans, and audit season.
Discuss scopeCost questions we hear most.
Most outsourced or fractional CFO engagements run $3,000 to $12,000 per month depending on scope, reporting audience, and cadence. Light review-and-report engagements sit at the bottom of that range; full CFO coverage with board or lender reporting sits at the top.
Usually, yes. A full-time CFO typically costs $260,000 to $450,000 all-in once bonus, benefits, and payroll taxes are included. A fractional engagement delivers the same seniority for the portion of the week you actually need it, which for most businesses under roughly $30 million in revenue is the better economic fit.
An outsourced controller generally runs $2,000 to $5,000 per month and owns the close and the accuracy of the numbers. A fractional CFO costs more because the deliverable is the decision — forecast, capital strategy, pricing, and board or lender credibility.
Only where cleanup is genuinely required. If the close is current and the chart of accounts is sound, the monthly fee starts immediately. If it is not, we quote the remediation as a defined project rather than stretching it across the retainer.
