Read StoryYou may be paying staff for say 38 hours per week, however you’re only able to bill out their time for a fraction of that time. They get involved in doing all kinds of other things that can’t be directly billed to clients.
The key to profitability is systems and processes to ensure staff are working on maximum billable activities. It’s not that staff don’t want to do this… it’s often the systems aren’t there to support them to achieve higher productivity.
The other big issue is understanding the ‘true cost’ of staff that needs to be covered by the charge out rate to clients. Also the rate needs to cover any fixed overheads… plus a profit. All of this can be tricky to work out and keep track of, if you don’t have good systems in place.
Great results are achievable with the help of CFO professional services. By sourcing high-quality work at an affordable, contractually based price, Virtual CFOs are readily equipped to help your SMB scale.

Business Growth can be a tricky time for business owners. The resources required to achieve sustainable growth needs careful consideration. It’s tempting to think that growth in sales will fix everything else, however CFOs have experienced situations where this definitely isn’t the case!
With business growth comes a need for extra cash to cover more sales, extra resources e.g. premises, wages, stock etc. to deliver more sales. This needs to be carefully understood and the cash requirement factored in. Extra funds may need to be sourced externally and a CFO can help ensure a business gets the funding it needs. A Virtual CFO acts as a facilitator with lenders/investors to answer their questions and present the business as an attractive proposition for them.
