Tradepoint CFOs

Avoidance is expensive.

The DSO you don't want to know.
The job you suspect lost money but never costed out.
The recurring expense that crept up.

Whatever you're scared to look at — that's where the money is.

Look at it this week.

🔁 Save this for the Monday you needed it.

Real talk for the trade owners who are tired.

You didn't start this company because you love spreadsheets.

You started it because you wanted independence. Because you were tired of working for someone who didn't appreciate you. Because you were good at the work.

And now you're buried in numbers, payroll stress, AR drama, and tax surprises.

Here's the trade-off most owners miss:

Hating finance does NOT mean you can avoid finance.

But it DOES mean you can stop trying to do it all yourself.

A good fractional CFO isn't there to make you LOVE the numbers. They're there to make sure the right numbers are in front of you, in plain English, when decisions need to be made.

You bring the craft. The work ethic. The customer relationships.
We bring the financial cockpit.

That's the deal.

What's the one finance task you absolutely dread?

A plumbing shop owner came to me last spring saying: "I have no idea if we're making money."

He wasn't exaggerating. They had:
❌ No job costing
❌ A bookkeeper who ran the P&L quarterly
❌ A QuickBooks file 3 months behind reality
❌ A LOC at 80% utilization

We didn't change his pricing or his customer mix. We just built him a dashboard.

In 90 days:
✅ Weekly 13-week cash flow forecast
✅ Job-level margin tracking
✅ Monday Morning 5 routine
✅ AR review every Monday

Result after 12 months:
→ Net margin moved from -2% to 7%
→ LOC paid down to 20% utilization
→ Owner stopped working Saturdays

Nothing about the WORK changed. Everything about how he MEASURED the work changed.
