Which one does my firm need?
CPA, controller, CFO, fractional CFO. Partners ask us which one their firm needs more than almost any other question.
The short answer: they do different jobs. Your CPA looks backward. A controller makes sure the numbers are right. A CFO uses those numbers to decide what happens next.
Most growing firms have the first one, sometimes the second, and are missing the third. That’s the gap a fractional CFO fills, without adding a full-time executive salary.
