Our Boston outsourced CFOs are of a different breed

We are entrepreneurs at heart. We think and act like business owners. We have helped build, finance and sell many companies over our careers. We can do the same for you.

Our business experience spans virtually every sector of the economy and companies of all sizes – from start-ups to Fortune 500 corporations. We are effective and efficient, make an immediate impact, offer a fresh perspective, and add a lot of value for a fraction of the cost of a full-time CFO.

    Is it time to Onboard an Outsourced CFO?

    If you can relate to a few of the statements below, you would greatly benefit from having one of our outsourced CFOs by your side.

    no 1

    IT’S LONELY AT THE TOP: You lack an experienced business partner and “consiglieri” at your elbow who is objective, strategic and fact-based, yet passionate about growing the value of your company. There is a substantial gap in business experience and acumen between you and other members of your team

    no 2

    THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH HOURS IN THE DAY: You have no time to deal with important financial or operating tasks, which keep on being postponed or falling through the cracks…or worse still, such financial and operating tasks continuously crowd out your pivotal duties related to customer acquisition and products

    no 3

    NO STRATEGY, INSIGHTS & ANALYSIS FROM FINANCE: Your finance function is limited to producing the monthly P&L and Balance Sheet. It provides no: strategic input, detailed profitability analysis of your products/services, a rolling cash flow forecast, benchmarking, Key Performance Indicators, etc. You feel like you are flying the proverbial airplane with no instrument panel

    no 4

    CASH FLOW AND PROFITABILITY “SURPRISES”: Your business is experiencing profitability or cash flow problems, is missing bank covenants or is underperforming the budget – and you are often surprised by it

    no 5

    $20 MM COMPANY STUCK IN THE BODY OF A $4 MM BUSINESS: Your business is growing fast and requires more robust finance and operating functions to deal with the challenges and opportunities that come with such rapid growth. Increasingly, you feel like your company’s accelerated expansion is being restricted or held back by its own lack of infrastructure

    no 6

    SHORT-SIGHTED: You don’t have a long-term view of your business, including: (i) a 3 to 5-year strategic plan and financial forecast and (ii) a sense of the business value, currently and in the future

    no 7

    DEAL MAKING: You are looking to raise capital to fund growth or acquisition opportunities and reach your ambitious goals. Or you plan to sell in the short to medium-term and have not prepared your company for it

    What Our Clients Are Saying About Us

    Look no further than Venture Growth Partners. Having an opportunity to meet and discuss the needs of our business with Mario was the first step among many where Venture Growth Partners proved their worth. They helped guide and support us in ways we could develop goals, metrics, and strategies that would elevate our skills by placing one of their tenured consultants with us. We were not exactly sure what we needed but Mario was able to decipher from just two meetings what we thought we needed. We discussed some of our pain points, and the direction we were headed (and fast) and where we felt there were gaps in our infrastructure. Mario introduced us to a short list of extremely qualified candidates quickly. Working in a very specific industry it was paramount we find someone already up to speed on industry knowledge. Without trouble he was able to suggest precisely the person to fill this role, already armed with the right skills to become an essential part of our business. Now, we can’t imagine what or where we would be without Venture Growth Partners.

    Pavel Perlov
    CEO at Electronic Fluorocarbons LLC

    Tom Nehila is fantastic. I was first introduced to Tom while I was serving as the VP of IT and Chief Technology Officer of a national Healthcare PayerProvider. We brought Tom onboard to help mature our capacity planning process…and he quickly added value far and above that one area. Tom talks Finance, Projects, Programs, People and Technology with equal fluency…and I found a partner and mentor as we streamlined the budget, defined more robust project sizing and capacity models, improved our supply and demand pipelines, identified operational efficiencies, and reinforced a solid foundation of trust with our Finance leaders that ensured continued and future success. Through all of this, Tom provided wise counsel, a level-headed business perspective, good humor, and excellence in delivery – while never feeling like a ‘consultant’, but rather a true part of the leadership team.

    Vice President of IT, Americas – Olympus Corporation

    We had a great experience with Judy Cai as our CFO consultant. With her knowledge of manufacturing and cost accounting, she quickly came up to speed with our operations. Her work is thorough, and she handled many tax, audit, and compliance issues for us. She was a trusted advisor, had excellent soft skills, and was an absolute pleasure to work with.
