If your accountant only calls you in April — you don't have a financial partner. You have a filing service.
That's not a dig. A traditional CPA serves a critical function: accurate filings, compliance, tax returns done right. Every business needs that. But for a business between $500K and $3M in revenue, compliance alone is table stakes. It keeps you legal. It doesn't help you grow.
That's where a Virtual CFO changes the equation.
Forecasting what the next 12 months look like. Modeling what a new hire actually costs — fully loaded. Telling you whether your pricing supports the margins you need. Building the financial roadmap that makes your next big decision less of a gamble.
A full-time CFO to do all of this would cost you $200,000–$400,000 in salary — before benefits, before equity, before everything else. Most growing businesses can't justify that, and frankly don't need it full-time.
DWG's Platinum service gives you fractional CFO leadership — the strategy, the meetings, the forecasting, the board-ready reporting — scoped to what your business actually needs, at a price that makes sense.
The question isn't whether you need this level of support. At a certain stage, you absolutely do. The question is whether you're getting it.
