Financial blind spots don't announce themselves. We make sure you see them coming.

I started FT Business Consulting Group because too many business owners are making critical decisions with incomplete financial pictures. After years managing the finances for businesses across industries — from construction to e-commerce — I've seen the same patterns: talented founders held back by messy books, unclear margins, and financial blind spots they don't know they have.

My approach is different. I don't just clean up your numbers — I make them work for you. Every engagement starts with understanding where you are, where you want to go, and what's standing in the way. Whether that's untangling years of backlog, building reporting you'll actually use, or sitting beside you as a strategic financial partner — I bring the clarity that lets you make confident decisions.

For fractional CFO engagements, I work with a small number of clients at a time because real strategic impact requires real attention. If you're ready to stop guessing and start knowing, let's talk.

What Our Clients Say

Real feedback from real partnerships.

I worked with Fred for several years and he was instrumental in building systems, processes and procedures that built the foundation on which I could grow my business. He has a wonderful appreciation for how to get tasks done as efficiently as possible. I cannot recommend Fred highly enough.

Gareth P. Founder & CEO, Cloudworx Accounting Solutions

As their client, FTBCG offered me so much in terms of knowledge and expertise. Their diligence and commitment in finding the most thorough and efficient processes to suit my business is worth every cent. They take personal pride in seeing my business succeed and always deliver with integrity and professionalism.

Bridget M. Online Marketing Business Owner

Fred was a pleasure to work with. He came in during a transition of systems and worked wonders for the company and the team. His attention to detail and ability to see systems and implement processes were exactly what we needed. Fred was efficient while remaining approachable to each department and person he interacted with.

Saskia M. Ex-Director, Matilda's

FT Business Consulting Group has been instrumental in helping me shape and scale SmartThreads from the ground up. Their team guided me through structuring the business properly, setting up financial systems, and streamlining operations so we could handle rapid growth. Beyond just the numbers, they brought clarity and strategy at every stage — from building the foundation to making key decisions that allowed us to expand confidently. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend FT Business Consulting Group to any entrepreneur or business owner looking for true partners who understand how to take an idea and turn it into a sustainable, thriving company.

Ari G. Founder, SmartThreads

Fred may be an accountant by trade, but his value extends far beyond traditional consulting. Across our portfolio, he's proven to be a true operator — designing systems, implementing them, and rolling up his sleeves to get things done. He works with the intensity and accountability of someone who has skin in the game. Fred operates with full autonomy, consistently delivers strong results, and brings a rare combination of strategic thinking and hands-on execution. Any team would be lucky to have him in the trenches.

Answers Before You Ask

Everything you need to know about working with us.

What is a fractional CFO, and how is it different from a full-time CFO?

A fractional CFO gives you senior-level financial leadership — strategic planning, forecasting, KPI frameworks, M&A support — without the $300K+ salary of a full-time hire. You get the same caliber of expertise on a part-time basis, scaled to what your business actually needs right now.

How is FTBCG different from my CPA or tax preparer?

Your CPA looks backward — filing taxes and ensuring compliance. We look forward — managing cash flow, building forecasts, and helping you make confident financial decisions. We work alongside your CPA, not in place of them. Think of us as your financial operating partner.

How does your pricing work?

We charge a flat monthly fee based on the service tier and complexity of your business. Bookkeeping starts at $400/mo, Controller services at $2,500/mo, and Fractional CFO at $3,500/mo. No surprise invoices, no hourly billing. You know exactly what you're paying every month.

Do you require long-term contracts?

No. We work on a month-to-month basis. We earn your business every month by delivering results — not by locking you into a contract. Most clients stay because the value is clear, not because they have to.

What does onboarding look like?

We start with a discovery call to understand your business and financial pain points. From there, we get access to your systems, do a thorough review of your books and processes, and build a 90-day action plan. Most clients are fully onboarded within 2 weeks.

What size businesses do you work with?

We typically work with businesses between $100K and $20M in annual revenue. That said, our sweet spot is growth-stage companies doing $1M–$10M that have outgrown DIY bookkeeping but aren't ready for a full finance team.

What software and platforms do you use?

We work with the tools your business already runs on — including Xero, QuickBooks, Bill.com, Ramp, Rippling, Gusto, Dext, Zoho Inventory, and Cin7. If you're on a platform we haven't listed, chances are we've used it before.

How often will we meet?

That depends on your service tier. Bookkeeping clients typically get monthly check-ins. Controller and CFO clients get weekly or biweekly calls, plus ad-hoc access for urgent decisions. You'll never feel like you're chasing us down.

Can you work with my existing accountant or tax preparer?

Absolutely — we're built for it. We handle the day-to-day financial operations and hand your CPA clean, audit-ready books at year-end. Many of our clients say this collaboration actually saves them money on their tax prep bill.

How do I know which service tier is right for me?

Start with a free 30-minute discovery call. We'll ask about your revenue, team size, financial pain points, and goals. From there, we'll recommend the tier that fits — and if you outgrow it, we scale up with you.
