No business is too small to outsource your CFO services. In a constantly changing business world, knowing how to analyze and forecast business financial health helps businesses like yours stay on track.
The simplest answer is: now. There’s no true pinpoint moment when we can say you absolutely need an outsourced CFO, but there are signs that you’re in a dangerous zone and need help.
The easy answer is when you have a business or even a business idea that you are pursuing you should be consulting with people that can point you in the right direction and set up an accounting system that you can use going forward. We can also let you know when it is time to get the help of a business attorney. Even high net worth and high income clients with many personal assets and liabilities need assistance tracking everything and working with their tax preparers.
