Move into an ongoing engagement with clear reporting, forecasts, and a strategic partner you can reach anytime on Slack. Uncertainty out, confidence in.
Great bookkeeping tells you where you've been. But knowing what happened last quarter doesn't help you decide what to do next quarter. We pick up where your accounting team ends, building forecasts, modeling scenarios, and giving you the financial strategy to make confident decisions instead of anxious ones.

Decision frameworks, not just reports
“I spent my career leading FP&A functions and advising decision-makers on the operational and financial decisions that shape a business. But I'm also a builder who is invested in the success of your business. I started Ridgeline CFO because I saw too many companies with solid revenue and clean books, but no one helping them figure out what to do next. The finance seat is either empty or filled by someone who wasn't built for strategy.”
I'm here to fill that gap by providing the strategic layer you need to scale profitably.
Nick
Founder, Ridgeline CFO
No, and that's exactly the point. Your accounting team handles the historical records of what has already happened while we sit on top of that data to turn it into forward-looking strategy, forecasts, and decision frameworks. We act as the “translator” between your books and your vision, working closely with your existing bookkeeping, accounting, and tax teams.
We partner with growth-stage businesses, typically with revenues between $2M and $50M. This is often the range where financial complexity has outpaced your current infrastructure and your decisions are based on “gut feel”, not real data.
Outside of this range? We also work on one-time projects that fit your needs if a monthly retainer plan isn't needed. Let's chat.
Our model is designed to be a fraction of the cost of a full-time CFO, which can exceed $300k per year once salary, benefits, and incentives are factored in.
While every scope is unique, ongoing monthly retainers typically range from $2,000 to $10,000 per month.
Most clients begin with our Diagnostic Phase, a deep-dive into your financial infrastructure to find the gaps. From there, we transition into a customized ongoing retainer plan designed to provide the specific level of strategic leadership and accountability your business requires.
Traditional consultants drop in, deliver a static report, and leave you to figure it out alone. We embed as an ongoing part of your team with regular strategy calls and 24/7 Slack access. We pride ourselves on being responsive “builders” who get you the answers you need so you can get back to running your business and your life.
