    Common Questions

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Everything you need to know about our fractional Advisory services.

    A fractional Advisory provides strategic financial leadership on a part-time or project basis, giving you expert guidance at a fraction of the cost of a full-time hire. You get the same high-level insights – forecasting, strategic planning, capital raising support – without the $150K+ annual salary and benefits.
    If you’re making growth decisions, struggling with cash flow, planning to expand, or want clearer financial visibility, Advisory services can be transformational. For equine businesses specifically, we understand the unique cost structures of feed, facilities, events, and breeding that require specialized financial strategy.
    We cover revenue forecasting, cash flow management, budgeting, financial modeling, scenario planning, KPI development, capital raising preparation, expense optimization, headcount planning, and strategic growth advisory. Everything a full-time Advisory would handle.
    We integrate seamlessly with your existing financial team. Your bookkeeper handles day-to-day transactions; we use that data to provide strategic analysis, forecasts, and growth planning. Think of us as the strategic layer on top of your operational accounting.
    Absolutely! We specialize in capital raising readiness – building financial models investors want to see, preparing pitch decks with solid numbers, calculating burn rate and runway, and positioning your company for successful funding rounds or bank financing.
    We use bank-level encryption, secure client portals, and follow strict data protection protocols. All financial information is treated with the highest confidentiality. We’re also happy to sign NDAs for additional peace of mind.
    We offer flexible arrangements: monthly retainers for ongoing strategic partnership, project-based engagements for specific initiatives (like capital raising), or one-off consultations for quick assessments. Most clients start with a monthly engagement that scales with their needs.
    After your free consultation, we can typically begin within 1-2 weeks. We’ll conduct an initial deep dive into your financials, then deliver your first strategic recommendations within 30 days.
