Compensation Models for Fractional CFOs
A preferred compensation model for fractional CFOs is based on a percentage of the revenue they manage for clients. This approach aligns interests, as CFOs are incentivized to handle more clients effectively and maintain high-quality service, ensuring client retention. For example, if a firm charges $2,000 monthly for their services, a CFO would need numerous clients to earn a competitive salary based on a percentage structure. This model also simplifies financial forecasting, as understanding the percentage allocation helps predict gross margins and client management needs.
