110. Brutally Honest Advice If You Struggle To Get Clients
I'm about to drop some brutally honest advice to Fractional CFO's that are struggling to get clients.
The number one problem most Fractional CFO's face is getting more leads and closing more clients.
But somehow, I see way too many CFOs sitting back and waiting for the clients to come to them.
They think that if they post a few random things on LinkedIn or use AI to improve SEO, or maybe they think that they can drop $ 30,000 on a website, the clients are going to start somehow just to show up.
But guess what? They won't.
And you know that's true because those new leads haven't been showing up for you, have they?
In todayโs episode of The CFO Report, Iโll share some harsh truths and honest advice about what you need to start doing differently to get more leads and close more clients.
Let's dive in.

That's why I decided to move from being a Fractional CFO to being the CEO of a Fractional CFO Firm.
Today, I will share the five biggest lessons I've learned about the mindset shifts I had to make on that journey from being a solo Fractional CFO to being a CEO.
Let's dive in.
