Book a confidential consultation. No full-time hire, no obligation. We will tell you quickly whether an outsourced CFO fits.
You can be profitable on paper and still lie awake wondering whether you can cover payroll in March.
We see it constantly. The books can be perfectly accurate and still tell you nothing about what to do next. Recordkeeping looks backward. Nobody in the room is paid to look forward.
Our outsourced CFO services put that person in the room. Part time, billed monthly, without the cost of a full executive hire.
There is rarely a calm reason. It usually hits around a million in revenue. You have someone recording every transaction, and no one turning those numbers into a decision.
We take the forward-looking work off your plate:
Forecasting and budgets you can plan against
Cash flow visibility, so you see what is coming before it arrives
KPI reporting that turns the numbers into decisions
Tax planning built into the strategy, not bolted on at year end
Lender-ready and investor-ready financials when you need them
We learn your business, your numbers, and the decisions in front of you.
We build the forecast, cash flow view, and KPIs, then read them with you.
Strategy and tax moves handled by one senior team, in step with each other.
Your strategy and your return are handled by the same senior team, each with 15 or more years of experience. Nothing falls into the gap between two providers.
Our accountant did the return. Nobody was thinking about the year ahead. Dimov Tax handles both now and the tax planning actually moves with the business. Big difference.
The math is the easy part of the decision.
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics put the median pay for financial managers at about $161,700 in its 2024 data, and a seasoned CFO sits well above that once bonus, benefits, and equity are added. Most growing companies do not need that line on the payroll. They need the judgement, a few days a month.
What you pay is based on your revenue, the complexity of your finances, and how much forward planning you need. Every engagement begins with a custom proposal, not a package off a shelf.
See what this looks like for you. Book a confidential consultation and we will scope it around your business.
| Full-time CFO | Outsourced CFO (Dimov) | |
|---|---|---|
| Annual cost | Six-figure salary plus bonus, benefits, equity | Monthly fee, from the low four figures |
| Time to value | Months to hire and onboard | Engaged in weeks |
| Strategic range | One person's experience | A CPA firm's full bench |
| Tax integration | Usually a separate firm | Planning and filing under one roof |
| Commitment | Permanent payroll line | Scales up or down as you grow |
Our position: When one person controls payroll, bank access, and reporting with no second set of eyes, that is where it goes wrong.
In one publicly documented case, a company CFO pleaded guilty after failing to pay over $3.6 million in employee income and FICA tax withholdings. Independent oversight is not bureaucracy. It is what catches a problem while it is still small.
Most owners default to an LLC to avoid the double taxation of a C-corp, and they save year after year. What that misses is the bigger lever: with the right structure, held long enough, founders can exclude a large share of the gain when they sell. That one move can dwarf years of pass-through savings.
There are other out-of-the-box strategies that are available for each type of taxpayer that people don't even think to use.
This tends to fit if you:
Need the numbers run forward, not just recorded
Want forecasting, cash flow visibility, and KPIs you can act on
Need tax strategy and financial strategy handled together
Are not ready to put a six-figure executive on the payroll
You do not need your books in perfect order to start, and there is no wrong moment to bring in this kind of leadership.
Every engagement begins with a custom proposal built around your situation, not a package pulled off a shelf. What changes is the feeling of opening a report and knowing exactly what to do with it.
Book a confidential consultation. We will tell you quickly whether an outsourced CFO is the right step, and what it would look like for your business.
