Do I need a Nevada-licensed CPA to work with a fractional cfo services in Las Vegas?+
For Nevada state filings, your preparer should hold a CPA license from the Nevada Board of Accountancy or be an Enrolled Agent. Out-of-state pros can prepare your federal return but should not sign as a CPA on Nevada returns. Nevada has no state personal or corporate income tax.
What does a fractional CFO actually do day-to-day?+
Builds and maintains the forecast, owns the monthly close-to-board-package cycle, runs cash management, leads fundraising or banking conversations, and manages the finance/accounting team.
When should I upgrade from fractional to full-time CFO?+
Common triggers: revenue $25M+, complex multi-entity structure, active M&A, IPO preparation, or when the workload consistently exceeds 60 hours per month.
How does a fractional CFO differ from an outsourced controller?+
A controller owns historical accuracy — close, reconciliations, financial statements. A CFO owns forward-looking strategy — forecasting, capital, board, KPIs. Many companies need both, often from the same firm.
Do fractional CFOs help with fundraising?+
Yes — model building, data room prep, investor diligence support, and term sheet negotiation are core deliverables for many engagements.
What's the typical engagement length?+
Most engagements run 6–24 months. Some are project-based (fundraise, audit prep, system implementation); others continue indefinitely until a full-time hire is justified.
