Financial Peace of Mind On-Demand

Small business owners often have to wear multiple hats—but sometimes they just don’t fit. Financial issues arise and you know you need help, but budgets are limited, time is scarce, and expertise is low. You can’t afford a full-time CFO and you don’t want to engage a big firm with high prices and low commitment. Enter the fractional CFOs at ICS.

ICS steps up to provide on-demand financial expertise, leadership and peace of mind to help small businesses and entrepreneurs solve problems, seize opportunities and meet goals.

4) Build Your Model

ICS analyzes your data to build your company-specific model, which includes income statements, balance sheets and cash flow analyses that will allow you to translate your income into results-driven business strategy. Our models prepare you for major business decisions, mergers, acquisitions, turnarounds and more. And our sensitivity analysis helps plan for the unforeseen, keeping your business prepared for whatever the future holds.

5) Create Your Plan

Next, we'll create a 12-, 24- or 36-month plan by month, as well as a 13-week cash flow report, to help you communicate your strategy and financial expectations to your key stakeholders. Based on sound assumptions of sales and expenses, the plan considers your goals and priorities, acts as a guide for decision making, and provides a basis for measuring performance.
