Virtual CFO and advisory questions
What is a Virtual CFO (or fractional CFO)?
A Virtual or fractional CFO is a senior finance professional who works with your business part-time. You get regular financial review and decision support without employing a full-time CFO.
What does a Virtual CFO do for a small or medium business?
Reviews profit, cash and costs each month, plans cash flow, and helps with decisions like pricing, hiring and spending. You and your team lead the changes; we advise and track progress.
How much does a Virtual CFO cost?
Ongoing support starts from $3,000 a month excluding GST, with a 3-month minimum term. A 6-month agreement includes the Business Health Check. See pricing for what’s included.
Do I need a Health Check first?
It’s the usual starting point, so the advice is based on your actual numbers. It’s also available on its own, with no obligation to continue.
Do we need to change accountants?
No. We work alongside your existing accountant or bookkeeper, with your permission. If you need bookkeeping or tax support, that is a separate service.
Do you also do accounting and tax?
Yes, through NeoRise Advisory Pty Ltd, a separate registered tax agent practice, under its own engagement. You can use it on its own, with advisory, or keep your current accountant.
Who carries out the changes?
We prepare the plan, advise on decisions and review progress. You and your team lead operational changes. Your sales and marketing team or providers execute the growth plan. Building systems or dashboards is agreed separately.
Do we need new software or an AI assistant?
Only where it is useful. We start with your existing tools. A simple reporting view may be enough.
Can you help me prepare for succession or a future sale?
Yes. We help you get exit-ready: reliable records, documented processes, clear responsibilities and less reliance on you. We don’t value businesses or act as a broker.
What if our bookkeeping needs work?
We identify the important gaps and work with your bookkeeper or accountant on what needs correcting. We may also need extra information, such as time or materials recorded against jobs.
How do you compare us with other businesses?
We use relevant industry research and benchmarks, including our IBISWorld subscription. We check how comparable the businesses and measures are, then agree targets that make sense for you.
What does it cost?
It depends on the Health Check, advice or systems work you need. We agree a clear proposal before work begins. See advisory pricing.
Let’s talk about your business.
