What does a Virtual CFO actually do?

A Virtual CFO provides senior financial leadership on a fractional basis: owning the reporting calendar, managing cash and working capital, preparing board and investor materials, supporting fundraising or lending, and advising the founder on pricing, margin and investment decisions.

How is this different from bookkeeping or an accountant?

Bookkeeping records what happened. Finance Advisory interprets it and looks forward — forecasting cash, testing scenarios, and giving management the analysis needed to make decisions.
