Melbourne Businesses Are Making Decisions Without the Data
You're making decisions about pricing, hiring, cash reserves, and growth — but without reliable financial data, those decisions are guesses. A full-time CFO would give you the clarity you need. But at $150,000+ a year, that's not the right move for most $300k–$3M Melbourne businesses.
CFO-as-a-service gives you the same financial oversight at a fraction of the cost. Clean books, a detailed monthly report, and a personal 1:1 walkthrough every month — so the numbers are always current, always understood, and always working for you.
What's Included Every Month
- Fully reconciled books — all accounts reconciled within the first week of each month
- Profit & Loss report — revenue, cost of goods sold, gross margin, operating expenses, and net profit in plain English
- Cash flow statement — what came in, what went out, and your projected position over the next 30–60 days
- Margin analysis — where you're making money, where costs are creeping, and which parts of the business are worth scaling
- Month-on-month comparison — so you can see the trend, not just the snapshot
- Written monthly summary — a plain-English overview of your key numbers emailed before the 1:1
- 1:1 monthly meeting — a call or video walkthrough where we review the report together and discuss upcoming decisions
- BAS preparation & lodgement — quarterly, handled on time
- Payroll & superannuation — processed accurately every pay run
- Direct access between sessions — call or email when something comes up
Who This Is For
You're making real decisions
Pricing changes, new hires, equipment purchases, taking on a bigger contract — these decisions need accurate financial data behind them. Melbourne's high cost base makes getting this wrong expensive.
You've outgrown basic bookkeeping
You need to understand your margins, your cash position, and what your numbers are telling you about the health of the business — not just that transactions have been recorded.
You want to scale — but confidently
Growth in Melbourne without financial clarity is how businesses get into trouble. CFO-as-a-service gives you the foundation to scale deliberately — knowing the numbers support the move before you make it.
