If you’re the owner and/or operator of a startup business, you may be wondering when you’re going to need to hire a CFO. Although there’s no pat answer to that question, there are a few guidelines for making that decision. If your business is quite small and your revenue hasn’t been building that quickly, you may just want to continue on your own without a CFO until a few months down the road. However, don’t wait too long. Your company’s financial future could be at stake if you don’t act in a timely manner.
For Complex Financial Situations
At DeepSky, we provide CFO services that we outsource for all kinds of companies from startups to those that are well-established. When you bring in a professional firm like ours to provide your CFO services, it can benefit your business in a number of ways. As your startup grows, most of your financial situations will start becoming more and more complex. You may find that you need a CFO but can’t necessarily afford one to work in-house. In addition, you may find that any full-time CFO that you could afford would be lacking the financial expertise necessary for making the well-informed strategic decisions that you require, whether they’re day-to-day or long-term.
Financial Expertise
Outsourcing a major position in your company like the CFO function can be one of the very best ways for bringing a wealth of financial expertise and function onboard on an affordable basis. As a valuable member of your team, your CFO will be tasked with tracking all of your financial operations that go on day-to-day. In addition, he will also be expected to make substantial contributions to a long list of financial projects and other tasks, including:
- Working with project management for increasing profitability,
- Management of your internal cash flow,
- Supporting your marketing and sales teams,
- Coordinating with your main financial advisors,
- Supporting your strategic planning (both long and short-term).
At DeepSky, our highly-experienced CFOs can deliver all of those plus a wide range of other services that would be delivered by an in-house CFO but at a much lower and more affordable price.
