Why Be Your Own CFO?
Scott Hoover, CPA
13 years ago I left the CPA firm where I worked and became a freelance Chief Financial Officer (or CFO).
The business grew beyond my expectations. Other CPAs and accountants joined the team and we expanded to serve companies beyond our home base in Central Wisconsin.
Today, our team is trusted by business owners (mostly of mid-sized companies) from New York to California, and many states in between.
I’ve noticed though, when a smaller company reaches out for CFO services, my heart sinks. From experience I know a small company likely hasn’t scaled enough to justify the cost of a part-time CFO.
It’s not that the small company doesn’t need CFO-level help. They need it as bad or worse than larger companies. A boy with a sick pet horse needs veterinary services as much as a millionaire racehorse owner does.
Unfortunately, only the millionaire has the resources to hire the vet. The young horse owner has to bootstrap and try DIY home remedies.
Similarly, when it comes to financial guidance, the small entrepreneur has little choice but to improvise and hope for the best.
Until today.
The opportunity you've just stumbled upon is called Be Your Own CFO. It’s for entrepreneurs running small companies (say <$3M in annual sales) and is designed to provide guidance at a VERY low price point.
Like $19/month low.
How is this possible?
Unlike hiring a part-time CFO, in the Be Your Own CFO program the entrepreneur still needs to implement the guidance themselves.
Guidance is provided via technology (real-time messaging and live weekly Q&A sessions) to all BYO CFO members at once. This allows the entire network to benefit and learn from each answer, at a very low price point.
The unique idea of BYO CFO is taking a personal service like CFO services and offering it on a mass scale to make it affordable to small companies.
I’m not aware of another opportunity quite like this in the world.
If your company has scaled and you already have a full-time or part-time CFO, this program isn’t for you. (Side note: It might still be a great personal learning opportunity!)
However, if you're running a small or growing company that is still scaling, you've just stumbled on a gold mine! Program benefits are described in more detail below.
I hope to see you soon on the BYO CFO network!
