About
You're a CFO tired of chasing leads and losing 40-70% of your rate to agencies or platforms?
I’ve been there too.
And I thought that if we combined our efforts, we can build something better – for all of us.
As a Fractional CFO, I know how exhausting it is to find clients on your own, or to give up nearly half your income just to get matched.
I ran the numbers. I felt the frustration.
And I kept thinking: why isn’t there a system that actually works for us?
That’s where the idea of a marketplace “Built by CFOs, for CFOs” came from – not just a slogan, but a personal truth.
That’s why I created the US Fractional CFO Alliance – a platform where fractional, interim, and project-based CFOs connect directly with businesses actively looking for financial leadership.
Just real-time lead requests – you decide who to work with, what to charge, and keep 100% of your revenue.
We share the cost of professional marketing, so you don’t have to do it alone.
You focus on what you do best – strategic finance. We handle the lead generation.
Right now, I’m inviting the first 20 outsourced CFOs to become Founding Members.
You’ll help shape the platform – and gain early visibility when we launch.
