Strategic Financial Planning & CFO Guidance
5. Does this Membership include bookkeeping or tax advice?
Yes and no, we do not provide formal bookkeeping or tax advice and our focus is forward looking strategy and accountability. However, as CFOs, we can answer questions and guide you to the right expert when needed. We can also help you ask the right question to the right person, and we’ll make sure you have the support you need.
We can help you find the right accounting team, and we strongly recommend having a reliable bookkeeper who is not you! We can also assess the quality of your bookkeeping and introduce you to our trusted bookkeeping partners.

Our 1:1 CFO services, project-based services, and due diligence services are best for professional services, construction trades, SAAS, and Gyms.
You don’t need to have a business in any of these industries to gain from our support, and we will direct you to other CFO support if we can’t help you reach your goals.

We recommend using QuickBooks or Xero for bookkeeping and having a strong outsourced bookkeeper that is not you providing monthly bookkeeping support.
