Frequently Asked Questions
Do you build financial models from scratch?
Yes. We can build complete financial models from scratch or work within your existing Excel or BI tool-based models. We adapt to your preferred environment.
What is a Virtual CFO?
A Virtual CFO is a senior financial executive engaged on a part-time or project basis. They provide strategic financial leadership — budget oversight, board reporting, capital strategy — at a fraction of the cost of a full-time CFO hire.
How often are forecasts updated?
Most clients update forecasts monthly or quarterly. We recommend at minimum a quarterly reforecast to keep the plan relevant as trading conditions evolve.
