Founder Fridays
Free office hours with a fractional CFO
Every Friday I open my calendar for founders. Book a free 30 minute slot to ask any accounting or finance question, or talk through where AI actually helps your firm. No pitch, no obligation, just a straight answer from someone who has sat on the finance side for 23 years.
The details
30 minutes, on the house
- Every Friday, a standing open block
- About four 30 minute slots, first come first served
- Bring one real question, or a messy spreadsheet
- Zero sales pressure. We advise, you decide.
What it is
A standing invitation, not a sales call
Most founders do not need a pitch. They need a clear answer to the question keeping them up at night: how long the cash lasts, whether the raise math works, what the board is going to ask. Founder Fridays exists for exactly that. It is the free diagnosis, made into a weekly habit.
Come with a runway question, a pricing question, a should I hire or wait question, or just a set of numbers you do not fully trust yet. If your books are a mess, bring them. If you want to know where AI actually helps a finance function, ask. You will leave with something useful whether or not we ever work together.
