What would your business look like if you could make informed decisions that get results like these?

simply by optimizing expenses

Would you continue to run your business on "instinct" with your hands in too many pots and books that are sloppier than a pack of frat boys on a pub crawl…

...with no clue how to clean up the mess because you've been burned one too many times by financial professionals and tools that fail to deliver?

Or would you partner with a firm that doesn’t stop at bookkeeping, but takes a deep dive into your entire business model, industry, and customers to help you identify and eliminate problems before they rear their ugly heads…

...so that you can stop treading water and lead your rapidly growing company with confidence...

WITHOUT HAVING TO MICROMANAGE THE FINANCES?

“I don’t have a background in finance. I’ve learned to surround myself with people who complement my weaknesses. Michael’s energy and his passion really sold me. He has this way of teaching that makes you feel really comfortable.”

“I found it very valuable to do coaching with Michael. He gives you the tools to not only empower you to understand information, but also to retain it. I feel like I just gained so much knowledge.”

LAUREN BONGIORNO

Because as you grow, finances become more complex. It’s going to take more than software to know which decisions will support (or tank) your business growth.

 

YOUR BUSINESS IS SCALING FASTER THAN YOU CAN BLINK.

After years of pouring every bit of your blood, sweat, tears, AND cash into your organization…

You’re finally reaping the rewards that you’ve worked so hard to get:

  • A stronger position in your industry.
  • More zeros in your bank account.
  • And the freedom to finally take off some of those extra hats you’ve been wearing for way too long.

You’re starting to dream bigger about your role as the visionary of your company and you’re feeling excited about the new projects you can explore...

Until the day a thick envelope hits your desk with a not-so-nice letter from Uncle Sam inside, informing you that you’re on the hook for $180K thanks to a “little mistake” you made last April.

You start to panic as your dreams of having a little more margin in your life grind to a halt. . .

 

YOU THOUGHT YOU HAD A HANDLE ON THE FINANCIALS... AT LEAST, THAT’S THE IMPRESSION YOU HAD FROM THE REPORTS YOUR ACCOUNTING SOFTWARE SPAT OUT EVERY MONTH.

After years of pouring every bit of your blood, sweat, tears, AND cash into your organization…

You start to panic as your dreams of having a little more margin in your life grind to a halt. . .

 

YOU THOUGHT YOU HAD A HANDLE ON THE FINANCIALS... AT LEAST, THAT’S THE IMPRESSION YOU HAD FROM THE REPORTS YOUR ACCOUNTING SOFTWARE SPAT OUT EVERY MONTH.

But now you have to scramble to figure out how you’re going to afford that new staff member you hired to free up your schedule…

And how to explain to your partner that those weekly date nights and that trip to Italy you promised will have to wait.

To make things worse, you know your burnt-out staff has been on the verge of jumping ship for months. You’ve got no choice but to cut corners somewhere to scrape together the dough you owe the IRS, and you’re afraid the strain on resources will drive your team to its breaking point.

All it took was one financial error to impact the growth of your business... and the lives of the people you care about.

Suddenly, you don’t feel like a visionary CEO... you feel like a Jack-of-all-trades and master of none who can’t wrap their head around what moves the financial needle forward and what doesn’t.

You realize that maybe you need more than a tool to keep your ship afloat, but where in the world can you turn for help making the strategic financial decisions that’ll keep your business running?

With All the Time You’ve Spent Growing Your Business, Isn’t It Time You Free Yourself to Lead It—Without Missing a Beat Financially?

Your special brand of genius and your drive are the ingredients that make you a money-making machine.

Making money is easy. But managing it strategically is a whooooole different ball game…

And you deserve to be able to identify opportunities and strategies that increase your business’s health, instead of heading down the road to financial life support.

YOU DESERVE

To know exactly what’s happening in your company and how to best leverage your time and energy so that you can fully enjoy the financial rewards of running your business.

YOU DESERVE

To have solid and reliable financial management by your side, instead of trying to figure it all out by your lonesome—risking everything that you’ve worked so hard to build.

YOU DESERVE

To wear just one hat—the CEO hat—and feel the power of being at the helm of a rapidly growing business, as well as the security of knowing that you’ve got the financial and organizational stability to sustain it.

YOU DESERVE

To experience a strategic partnership that provides you with the financial guardrails your business needs to flourish, and the support you need to thrive as a CEO.

AND I’LL TELL YOU EXACTLY HOW TO GET IT.

But first, we’ve got to address the gorilla-sized myths holding you back…

3 FALSE Beliefs You’ve Got to Squash Right Now If You Want to Scale Your Business Sustainably, Be the Leader of Your Company (Instead of the Firefighter), and Experience More Mind-Blowing Wins

 

Than You Have in the Entire Existence of Your Business

3 FALSE Beliefs You’ve Got to Squash Right Now If You Want to Scale Your Business Sustainably, Be the Leader of Your Company (Instead of the Firefighter), and Experience More Mind-Blowing Wins

 

Than You Have in the Entire Existence of Your Business

MYTH #1: “I DON’T HAVE THE MONEY TO OUTSOURCE FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT.”

And we don’t think you should. Allow us to explain.

The idea of “outsourcing” implies that you can hand off your business financials to someone else, never to think about them again. This is never a good idea.

As the CEO, you need to be aware of what is going on financially within your organization. But that doesn’t mean you should be the one doing the day-to-day management of the finances.

What you need is a partnership with financial experts who will explain to you what’s happening with your money, how it impacts your organization as a whole, and how to make decisions based on that data.

It’s hard to get helpful advice from services that don’t take the time to get to know your company on an intimate level. That’s why financial software and freelance bookkeepers will never be able to give you advice that fits like a glove.

What you need is a team that will work with you personally to learn more about you than the numbers behind your business. Our CFO team at KFE provides ongoing support and guidance so that you can make business decisions with complete understanding and confidence.

MYTH #2: “I DON’T HAVE THE SKILLS TO FIX MY FINANCIAL SITUATION.”

And we don’t think you should. Allow us to explain.

It’s not your fault that your financial skills are limited. You’re busy running your business and developing the skills that helped you to get to where you are now.

But you do need to have an understanding of the numbers inside your business. Forecast reports from software tools or bookkeepers won’t give you the ability to interpret what your finances are saying to you about future prospects.

The good news is, you can partner with the CFO team at KFE and receive the education you need to feel empowered. Not only will you repair your financial situation, but you’ll also have the ability to set the stage for incredible growth and bridge the gap between your current situation and your goals.

MYTH #3: “I CAN MAKE GOOD CHOICES TO GROW MY BUSINESS WITHOUT LEARNING MORE ABOUT THE FINANCES.”

Look:

You’re amazing at what you do, there’s no doubt about that.

But as your company continues to scale, the finances will become more complex. You need the oversight of an expert to keep your business from going off the rails.

At KFE, we don’t just take over your financial management and shut you out of the process. We work with you, keeping you informed at every step so that you understand the relationship between your company’s financial health and its sustainable future growth.

THE GOOD NEWS IS...

Building Your Financial Support Is an Investment That Keeps on Giving

HERE’S THE DEAL:

 

If you’ve made it this far in your business, you already know that the right investment in your development is the key to exponential growth.

 

You also know that, once you get to a certain level, it takes money to make more money.

But if your finances are out of control, or if you don’t understand the information that your financial situation is trying to tell you, you’re going to short-circuit your potential.

What if you had an expert team of financial professionals that could work alongside you, not only to wrangle your books but to provide you with 360° executive leadership support that strengthens your ability to make decisions for your company that set the stage for long term growth?

Would you seize the chance to partner with an All-Star firm that empowers you to dream bigger, amplify your impact, and gives you the freedom you desire so you can invest your energy into leading your team (rather than feeling crushed under the weight of overwhelm)?

“Hi

I’M A FINANCIAL WIZARD AND ALL-AROUND NUMBERS GUY (WHO USED TO KNOW ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ABOUT BUSINESS FINANCE).

In a past life, I was an engineer for the U.S. Navy.

But because a career as a nuclear engineer on submarines wasn’t quite difficult enough, I decided to dive into the treacherous waters of the business world.

It wasn’t long before I realized that all the smarts in the world wouldn’t help me if I didn’t boost my financial literacy. Even worse, I saw driven professionals just like me suffering because there’s no Rosetta Stone for languages like “Finance” and “Accounting.”

I decided to do something about it.

I made it my mission to help business owners understand their numbers, increase their profits, and make savvy decisions. 10 years, one MBA, and 200+ clients later, I’ve found the perfect formula to help business owners grasp the essentials without paying thousands of dollars for consultants and gurus. I’ve created the KFE Fractional CFO & Executive-Level Financial Coaching system to provide CEOs with a roadmap to strategic growth.

My team of financial experts and I use our decades of experience to bring you valuable insights that allow you to reach your true potential.

“[As a CEO of a multiple 7-figure company] it’s difficult to keep an eye on the books and wear all the hats that you need to. Michael provides us with the insight that is sorely needed. It really is fantastic to have someone who is able to provide the advice you need to make executive decisions.”

Going into the pandemic was pretty scary. We had a come-to-Jesus talk with Michael. They made suggestions that were very practical. We have been able to navigate those extremely perilous waters and we could not have done that without Michael and his team.”

SAM BANKS

“We hired Michael and his firm to do a deep dive into our books. They did a stellar job. We were so impressed with their work and their personalities. They listened really well to our needs and our core values. It’s freed us up to work on our business at the big picture level.”

KARI WAY

“We felt almost immediately that Michael was worth his weight in gold. He’s very good at communicating and he takes the time to get to the bottom of our needs. It all of a sudden felt manageable and reduced a lot of stress.

ALISON ARMSTRONG

“We became too big to handle finances on our own. We hired Michael in October 2019 and ended up growing top-line revenue by 40%. Michael really understands our preferences and comfort level. It’s a high-trust relationship.”

Smart Questions Your Fellow Growth-Focused CEOs Asked Before Saying “Hell, Yes!” to Partnering with KFE

WHAT MAKES YOU DIFFERENT FROM OTHER FINANCIAL COMPANIES?

 

At KFE, we go beyond ensuring your books are in order. We’re committed to partnering with your team to help you understand the “what” and the “why” to empower you to make smarter decisions about your future.

Our team will work with you, side-by-side, to keep you informed about your financials and your position in the market, and give you the insights you need to address challenges to your business before they become a problem.

Unlike other companies, we customize our advice based on a deep understanding of you and your specific goals.

WORKING WITH A CFO TEAM SOUNDS AMAZING, BUT THE INVESTMENT IS HIGHER THAN WHAT WE’D PAY TO FIND A BETTER BOOKKEEPER. HOW DO I KNOW YOUR SERVICES ARE WORTH THE PRICE?

 

We only take on clients who can invest in our services. Our team determines this from the beginning by taking a look at your numbers.

If we choose to work with you, our financial oversight is likely to have an immediate impact on your profitability. The financial rewards you reap from our work will quickly offset the cost of our services and bring more growth opportunities.

But if we take you on as a client and you decide to terminate your services, you are not locked into a contract. You can cancel and get a refund of your most recent monthly service payment anytime.

I HAVE A SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS THAT’S GROWING JUST FINE. WHY SHOULD I BOTHER HIRING A CFO TEAM?

 

CFO services are crucial to the health of your business at every stage of growth. If your business is successful, it’s important to continue prioritizing your financial health to keep up the momentum.

You need a custom plan for investing in your organization to protect your money and your potential for future growth.

The time to have the map is before you enter the forest. It will cost you 10x more to go back and fix mistakes than it will to set a solid foundation now.
