The Founder’s Dilemma
Too expensive for full‑time – A senior CFO costs €150‑250k + equity.
Too complex to DIY – Spreadsheets and guesswork lead to mistakes and missed opportunities.
No time to build systems – You’re busy selling and building product.
“Startups with a dedicated CFO raise 2x more capital and grow 30% faster.”
