Book Free Fort Worth Financial Strategy CallMost Fort Worth companies between $2M and $20M in revenue are too complex for a bookkeeper but not yet ready to justify a $250,000+ full-time CFO. A Fractional CFO fills that gap - delivering the financial strategy, reporting, and discipline that growing Texas businesses need without the overhead.

When companies hire a fractional cfo, they are buying senior executive accountability -- not consulting advice. Here is what every engagement covers from day one:
Growth-stage companies preparing for a capital raise that need a board-ready financial model and investor narrative. Founder-led businesses where the CEO is making financial decisions without a senior finance partner. PE portfolio companies with a mandate to improve financial operations and reporting. Companies approaching $5M revenue where a part-time bookkeeper is no longer sufficient but a $250K+ full-time CFO is premature.

"We were 60 days from running out of cash and had no clear picture of our burn rate. The fractional CFO rebuilt our financial model in two weeks, identified three cash leaks we hadn't seen, and helped us close a $2.5M bridge round within 45 days. It was the most important hire we made."
"We had been trying to raise a Series A for eight months with no traction. After the fractional CFO engagement, our financial story was clean, our unit economics were defensible, and our data room was institutional quality. We closed the round in 11 weeks."
"Our PE sponsor required monthly board packages with specific KPIs. We were producing them manually in Excel six days after month-end. The fractional CFO built a real-time dashboard and automated reporting system. Now we close in two days and the board has stopped asking follow-up questions."

What does a fractional CFO do for growing companies?
A fractional CFO acts as your Chief Financial Officer on a part-time basis -- typically 1-2 days per week -- with full executive accountability for financial strategy, reporting, and capital decisions. They own your financial planning, board reporting, fundraising preparation, and unit economics -- without the $250,000+ fully-loaded cost of a full-time CFO hire. The key difference from a controller or bookkeeper is strategic ownership: a fractional CFO connects financial decisions to business outcomes, not just compliance and record-keeping.
How quickly will I see results?
Most engagements produce measurable outputs within 30 days: a GTM strategy, ICP definition, messaging architecture, and demand generation plan. Pipeline movement typically appears in 60-90 days as campaigns launch. Long-term compounding results build over 6-12 months.
Is there a long-term contract required?
No. Every MarkCMO engagement is month-to-month. There are no long-term contracts, no cancellation fees, and no lock-in. You stay because the results justify it. We offer a free GTM diagnostic before you commit to any paid engagement.
Do I have to sign a long-term contract?
No. Every MarkCMO engagement is month-to-month. There are no long-term contracts, no cancellation fees, and no lock-in clauses. You stay because the results justify it -- not because you are contractually obligated. We offer a free GTM diagnostic before you commit to any paid engagement so you can validate fit before spending a dollar.
How does the engagement start?
Step one is a free 30-minute GTM diagnostic call. We review your current situation, revenue goals, team structure, and the biggest gap between where you are and where you need to be. If there is a clear fit, we outline a 30-60-90 day plan and agree on scope. Most engagements are live within 5-7 business days of the diagnostic call.
Book a free GTM diagnostic call. No pitch. No pressure. We review your current situation, identify the single biggest gap in your marketing, and give you a clear path forward -- whether you hire us or not.
