Bringing Clarity to What Matters Most
Executive-level financial partnership, without full-time overhead.
You’ve outgrown running your business by watching your bank balance.
Truelight CFO provides fractional CFO services that bring clarity, foresight, and executive-level financial leadership—without full-time overhead.
We work with owners and CEOs who want better decisions—not just more numbers.
We deliver the highest-value elements of a seasoned CFO’s role—the forward-looking clarity and strategic counsel—scaled to the needs of companies with $5 - $25 million in revenue.
What is a fractional CFO?
Bookkeeping preserves financial truth about the past; a fractional CFO uses that truth to illuminate the future.
We create forward-looking analytical frameworks to help leaders see:
The truth of where they are
The real options available
The consequences—intended and unintended—of each path
The purpose of that foresight is simple: to help owners and CEOs align their financial decisions with the future they actually want to create.
