CFO Advisory for Professional Services in Orlando

Agencies, consultancies and law firms sell hours, so the finance question is always utilization and realization rather than units shipped. The model has to connect billable capacity to revenue and margin by client and by engagement, which most general-purpose accounting setups simply cannot answer.

  • Utilisation and realization tracked per person and per practice area
  • Work-in-progress and unbilled revenue recognized correctly rather than at invoice date
  • Project-level margin after delivery cost, not just gross revenue by client
  • Client concentration monitoring — any single account over 15% of revenue gets flagged
  • Pipeline-weighted capacity planning so hiring is decided before the crunch

Questions From This Industry

How do you handle work-in-progress and unbilled revenue?

WIP is recognized as the work is delivered, not when the invoice goes out. Billing on milestones while recognizing on delivery is what makes an agency P&L swing for no operational reason. We keep a WIP schedule reconciled monthly so revenue tracks effort and the balance sheet shows what you are genuinely owed.

Can you report profitability by client and by engagement?

Yes, and it is usually the finding that changes behaviour. Once delivery cost is loaded properly, most firms discover at least one marquee client that is margin-negative and a quiet one that funds the practice.

What is the difference between a fractional CFO and an outsourced CFO?

A fractional CFO is one senior person selling you one or two days a month, and everything they produce is bounded by the hours you bought. An outsourced CFO is the whole function — CFO judgment plus the controller and accounting layers beneath it. Ask what breaks if this person is unavailable for two weeks. If the answer is "we delay a decision," fractional is fine. If it is "we do not close the month," you need a function.

How quickly can an outsourced CFO take over?

Onboarding runs 30–60 days. The first two weeks are diagnostic — reviewing your chart of accounts, prior closes and systems. Expect the first clean close under the new process in month two, not month one.

Do we still need a bookkeeper if we hire an outsourced CFO?

The bookkeeping still has to happen, but it is included in the engagement rather than something you buy separately. Having a CFO do bookkeeping is the most expensive way to buy it — roughly five times the market rate for work a staff accountant does better.

Do you work with companies in Orlando?

Yes. We work with clients across the Southeast and nationwide. Our team operates in Eastern time and can accommodate your schedule.
