Integrated bookkeeping, strategic tax planning, and CFO-level guidance for businesses with $500K-$2M revenue. Serving the East Coast corridor with virtual-first service from Philadelphia to New York and beyond.
Who We Serve
Is Your Financial Infrastructure Holding You Back?
You've built a successful business generating $500K-$2M in annual revenue. But your financial infrastructure hasn't kept pace with your growth. Right now, you're dealing with:
  • Books that are 2-3 months behind, making it impossible to make informed decisions
  • Surprise tax bills because no one's doing proactive planning
  • Hours wasted each week on QuickBooks instead of growing your business
  • The nagging feeling that you don't really understand your numbers
You don't need a full-time CFO (and can't justify the $150K+ salary). But you've outgrown DIY bookkeeping and basic compliance work. That's where we come in.
How We Help
Strategic Financial Management, Not Just Bookkeeping

  • Real-time financial visibility (know where you stand, always)
  • Strategic CFO guidance (make confident decisions about hiring, pricing, investments)
  • Direct access to 18+ years of financial leadership experience
You get the financial infrastructure of a $5M+ company without the cost of a full-time CFO.

Frequently Asked Questions
1
Q: Do you work with businesses outside of Philadelphia and New York?
A: Yes! We serve clients across the United States with virtual-first service. Most communication happens via email, phone, and video calls. We have an office in Philadelphia for local clients who prefer in-person meetings, but location is not a limitation.
2
Q: What if my books are a mess and months behind?
A: That's exactly the situation we specialize in fixing. During implementation, we'll catch up your backlog and establish clean baseline financials. Most clients are current within 30 days.
3
Q: Do I need to be a certain size to work with you?
A: Our services are designed for businesses with $500K-$2M in annual revenue. If you're below $300K, we're probably not the right fit yet—but we're happy to recommend other providers and reconnect once you've grown.
4
Q: What accounting software do you work with?
A: We primarily work with QuickBooks Online, which we recommend for most growing businesses. If you're using other software, let's discuss during your financial assessment.
5
Q: Do you handle payroll?
A: We coordinate with your existing payroll provider and can recommend trusted partners if needed, but payroll processing is not included in our core packages.
6
Q: How is this different from hiring a full-time bookkeeper or CFO?
A: A full-time bookkeeper typically costs $45K-$60K/year but lacks strategic CFO-level expertise. A full-time CFO costs $150K-$250K+. Our fractional CFO model gives you strategic financial leadership at $24K-$42K/year—a fraction of the cost with the expertise you need.
7
Q: What's your cancellation policy?
A: We work on a month-to-month basis with 30 days notice. No long-term contracts or lock-ins. We believe in earning your business every month through excellent service.
