    There are two types of Fractional CFO firm owners:

    There are those that are willing to take action and those that are paralyzed by perfection.

    ________________________

    I'm about to drop some brutally honest advice to Fractional CFO's that are struggling to get clients.

    The number one problem most Fractional CFO's face is getting more leads and closing more clients. 

    But somehow, I see way too many CFOs sitting back and waiting for the clients to come to them. 

    They think that if they post a few random things on LinkedIn or use AI to improve SEO, or maybe they think that they can drop $ 30,000 on a website, the clients are going to start somehow just to show up.

     But guess what? They won't. 

    And you know that's true because those new leads haven't been showing up for you, have they? 

    In today’s episode of The CFO Report, I’ll share some harsh truths and honest advice about what you need to start doing differently to get more leads and close more clients. 

    Let's dive in.

    109. Want To Be Rich? Don't Become a Fractional CFO

    109. Want To Be Rich? Don't Become a Fractional CFO

    Eight years ago, I became a Fractional CFO. It was the best decision I've ever made because, within a year of starting, I became a multimillionaire.

    That statement isn't just false; it's completely BS. 

    That's why I decided to move from being a Fractional CFO to being the CEO of a Fractional CFO Firm. 

    Today, I will share the five biggest lessons I've learned about the mindset shifts I had to make on that journey from being a solo Fractional CFO to being a CEO. 

    Let's dive in.

    _________________________How does somebody go from handing out lollipops at a bank to becoming a co-founder of a 

    Fractional CFO firm? 

    That's exactly what we're going to find out today in this week's episode of The CFO report. I'm talking with my friend Aaron Hill, who literally started his career handing out lollipops as a teller at a bank. And now he's running a very successful Fractional CFO firm in Atlanta, Georgia. 

    One of the most interesting things about Aaron and his firm, Watchpoint Group, is that they do the normal Fractional CFO  things like forecast and projections, but they also offer a service that 

    I haven't seen any other Fractional CFO firm offer. 

    What is that other service, and how did Aaron get his start?

    Let's dive in.
