CFO Services

Give yourself the same financial tools every successful organisation uses every day.

Most SME’s are not large enough to be able to afford a full time CFO to help support their business – but often require one. Ty Hazell, our CEO and Co-Founder, having worked for over 20 years as CFO in many large multinationals across multiple industries, will provide these services at a fraction of their current market rates.

CFO is much more than just a “spreadsheeter”, we will help set corporate strategy, manage resources and bring the CEO’s vision to life.

CFO can influence the business by driving the business core metrics, presentation and understanding of results and holding Management Accountable.

CFO is your day to day commercial manager that can answer the “What”, “How”, “Why” and “When” - such as Why am I generating sales but no cashflow?

CFO services provides an SME with the Financial Analysis and Information that every successful large corporate business has at its fingertips.

CFO services stimulates better decision making based on financial facts, not just gut feel; and

CFO services improves transparency and business acumen to drive success and achieve your financial goals.

At Focused, we concentrate on the 4 core pillars of success.

This is the same secret source that all the major Corporates utilise.

“By Failing to Prepare, you are Preparing to Fail”

– Benjamin Franklin, Founding Father of the US

Never a truer statement has been made! Throughout my expansive corporate career whether I was CFO for a start up burning cash on a monthly basis or as CFO for a multi international there was always a clear vision for where our business would be in the next 3 years; a more detailed plan for the immediate 12 months; all of which was broken down into individual team/department key KPi’s, busines objectives and goals which were monitored and updated as market conditions changed. These processes are the fundamentals to any successful business as without a plan how can you evaluate performance.

Business performance can only be measured against a target or an effective plan that has been agreed by the owner or the Board to evaluate performance and identify areas of improvement. Ideally, Key business KPI’s should be monitored monthly supported by a detailed quarterly business review and updated forecast every 6 months based on market and business change conditions.

We would evaluate your current systems, look for areas to improve/automate which either drives the said efficiencies or from a risk management of reducing potential fraud or leakage within your business.
