FRACTIONAL CFO Services

Fractional CFO Services for Growing Businesses

Attracct Accounting Advisors is a Baton Rouge-based CPA firm, giving you a seasoned CFO and a full finance team: forecasting, cash strategy, and straight talk from a $200K executive, at a fraction of the cost. We build the financial strategy your stage of growth calls for. A full-time CFO costs $150,000 to $250,000 a year. For most growing businesses, that's a nonstarter. The need doesn't go away. We bridge the gap.

WHO WE WORK WITH

Who needs a fractional CFO?

You don't have to be a $50 million company to need a CFO. You need to be a company where decisions are getting bigger than your financial visibility can support. Most of our clients are $5M to $50M.

Financial Reporting

Small Businesses

You've outgrown a bookkeeper, but a full-time CFO is still a nonstarter. You need senior financial analysis from someone who knows your business well enough to give you a straight answer

Dynamic Forecasting 2

Scaling Companies

Growth is exposing cracks. Cash tightens even as revenue climbs, and every decision carries a bigger number. You need better projections and a rolling cash flow model, not another surprise.

Cash Flow 2

$5 to $50M Businesses

You're leveling up, and there's no time to drown in spreadsheets. You need dynamic forecasting and deeper insight into performance to court investors and sustain long-term growth

Need a CFO right NOW?

Some decisions won't wait for a hiring search. Mid-raise, cash crunch, a call that has to happen this week? Talk to us today.

What are the signs it's time to bring in a Fractional CFO?

You're making seven-figure calls on gut feel and a bank balance.

Revenue climbs, but cash stays tight.

You're raising capital and need numbers that survive investor scrutiny.

Your books show what happened. Nothing shows what's coming.

You haven't implemented a forecasting model.

Growth stalled, and the numbers won't tell you why.

Two or more sound familiar? It's time.

The Forward-looking difference

What is a fractional CFO, and what do they do?

A fractional CFO is a senior financial expert who works with your business part-time and helps you decide what to do with your money. Not a bookkeeper. Not a tax guy. Someone who can tell you what you should do before you do it.

A CFO takes your numbers and looks to the future: cash flow projections, your banking relationship, and the full financial picture underneath the decision on your desk right now. You get senior-level judgment for the slice of time your business needs — the same leadership an outsourced CFO or virtual CFO engagement provides, scoped to what you actually need.
