Fiscallion

I started Fiscallion as a side-project. But it turns out, help from an ex-FP&A with 9+ years training as Accounting Lead, FP&A and BI Manager is something a lot of folks need! Growing this business is now my full-time mission!

Fiscallion is the solution for when it feels like your business has gone off the rails.

They say you fake it until you make it as a founder. But for some founders, it might feel like you’re faking it a little too often.

Making mistakes is par for the course when you’re just starting out.

But what happens once you have a staff to pay? Are you willing to bet everything you’ve built on winging it? In this hostile financial environment, the stakes are even higher!

My clients don’t worry about faking anything.

They have an experienced expert on staff who clears blockers, sets a clear path, connects them to the most trusted tech and partners, and ensures everything is set up to scale according to best practices.

Want proof? 

Only 18% of first-time founders succeed. Since Fiscallion's inception, 75% of paying clients have closed funding or become more profitable.

For a stage where most VC firms and accelerators are satisfied with 1/10 businesses making it, 8/10 is unprecedented. I was honestly a little shocked to discover this stat...

The numbers speak for themselves: This works.

If you're an ambitious founder, you probably:

→ Want to improve financial models

→ Struggle with optimizing your finance tech stack

→ Lack the time to enhance your financial strategies

→ Want to implement new financial software but don’t know how

→ Aim to prepare for successful fundraising rounds but need guidance

→ Seek to optimize your financial reporting but don’t know where to start

You might relate to all 7 of these points.

Or, You might just be struggling with 1.

Why does that matter?

Well, having a robust financial strategy is essential for growth.

And there's still a massive opportunity to maximize your revenue through specialized financial practices.

Don't believe me?

Here are 5 things that my employers have said my expertise helped them do:

1. To create awareness for potential investors and partners

2. To attract investment by optimizing their financial structures

3. To communicate their growth potential better to stakeholders

4. To streamline operations by implementing various financial software

5. To stand out from competitors through financial insights and strategy

Implementing these strategies can boost your revenue, growth, and financial performance.
But you don't have time for that…

You're too busy doing other stuff like,

I don't know, scaling your company.

So what happens now?
I'll take over your financial strategy for you.

I have helped dozens of companies in:

― Preparing them for fundraising rounds,
― Optimizing their finance tech stacks,
― Enhancing their financial models,
― And more.

And no, I don't mean providing:

→ Generic financial advice
→ One-size-fits-all strategies
→ Pointless number crunching

I mean ACTUAL tailored financial solutions.

Created by a real fractional CFO.

Who leverages industry insights, proven frameworks, and your company's unique needs to drive real growth.

So, which path you'll want to go:

A - Sit and do nothing, leaving your financial strategies to chance.

I know you're shouting B inside you.

Let's map out strategies to streamline your financial operations and identify new avenues for growth and investment.
