Fractional CFO for E-Commerce Founders Who Want Control — Not Guesswork

At SG Strategic Advisory, I help ecommerce founders replace financial uncertainty with clear, forward-looking decisions.

This isn’t accounting. It’s CFO-level clarity around cash flow, margins, and scale — before problems show up.

E-commerce doesn’t fail because of revenue.
It fails when timing, margins, and cash visibility drift out of sync.

As your Fractional CFO, I focus on the financial decisions that actually move the business — not reports that explain the past.

What a Fractional CFO Actually Does for E-Commerce Founders

  • Forecast cash before it becomes a problem

  • Understand which products and channels fund growth — and which drain it

  • Pressure-test decisions before scaling spend or inventory

  • Translate numbers into clear next steps

What’s Included in Our CFO Engagements

Each engagement is tailored to your business goals — from stabilizing cash flow to scaling profitably. 

Cadence

  • Monthly or bi-weekly CFO strategy sessions.

  • Ongoing review of cash flow and key decisions

Focus Areas

  • Cash flow forecasting & scenario planning.
  • Profitability by SKU or channel.
  • Financial models tied to real decisions.

  • Clear reporting with recommendations.

Clarity, control, and a financial roadmap — without a full-time CFO.
