Part-Time CFO Services

Big-picture strategy for small-business budgets.

As a business grows, so do its financial decisions — but not every business has the budget or need for a full-time Chief Financial Officer. A part-time CFO gives business owners access to experienced financial oversight, strategic planning, and data-driven decision-making without the cost of a salaried executive.

Trigili, CPA, provides part-time CFO services tailored for small and mid-sized businesses that need clarity, not complexity.

The role of a part-time CFO

A part-time CFO offers more than reports — they provide strategic guidance on budgeting, performance, risk, and long-term planning. Trigili helps businesses establish goals and then tracks whether they’re on target, adjusting as needed. She collaborates with owners to review trends, uncover inefficiencies, and provide recommendations based on financial data.

Her role blends analysis with real-world action, allowing leaders to make decisions based on evidence, not instinct. Whether you need help preparing for a major investment or simply want more control over operations, part-time CFO support brings structure and clarity to your business finances.

Why businesses need CFO-level insight

Business owners often juggle multiple roles — CEO, manager, and sometimes even bookkeeper. But when financial questions become more complex, surface-level solutions no longer work. Trigili's CFO services provide a deeper look at what's driving profit or loss, where money is being lost, and how to correct course before small issues become big problems. She helps identify the true cost of doing business and uncover patterns that impact growth. With her insight, clients move from reactive to proactive — gaining financial control instead of just staying afloat.

Budgeting, forecasting, and planning

Strong financial planning allows you to see not only where you are, but where you’re headed. Trigili works with clients to develop annual budgets that align with their goals and cash flow. These budgets are paired with forecasting tools to monitor expected versus actual performance over time. She identifies areas where costs can be reduced or revenue improved and helps business owners adjust to seasonal shifts or unexpected changes. This proactive approach helps avoid shortfalls and prepares clients to invest with purpose.

Financial reporting and performance analysis

Timely, accurate financial reports are critical to understanding business health. Trigili prepares and reviews monthly and quarterly statements, highlighting the key metrics that matter most to your business. She interprets trends in revenue, expenses, profit margins, and more — turning raw data into useful insight.

Reports are designed to be easy to understand, so you don’t need an accounting background to make sense of them. With regular check-ins, clients learn to use these reports as a tool for smarter decision-making.

Support with banking, funding, and vendor relations

Having a clear financial story can be the difference between getting approved for a loan or being turned away. Trigili supports clients in preparing detailed financial packages for lenders and investors, ensuring the numbers are correct and the narrative is strong. She also reviews vendor contracts and payment terms to improve cash flow and negotiate better agreements.

This level of oversight builds stronger relationships with external stakeholders and improves your business’s financial reputation. When business owners have someone who speaks the language of finance on their side, deals go smoother — and with fewer surprises.

Internal controls and systems improvements

Even profitable businesses can run into problems if internal systems are disorganized. Trigili helps implement accounting systems, approval workflows, and internal controls that protect against fraud and ensure accuracy. This includes setting up processes for handling payables, managing payroll, and keeping expenses transparent. When everyone in the company knows how money is tracked and spent, errors decrease and accountability improves.

These systems also make your business more attractive to lenders, partners, or potential buyers down the road.

Scalable support for growing businesses

Trigili's part-time CFO services are designed to grow with your business. She can offer monthly check-ins, quarterly reviews, or more intensive involvement during critical growth periods. Her services are flexible, allowing you to scale up support as your needs evolve.

This is ideal for companies going through transition — whether launching a new product, expanding locations, or reorganizing operations. Trigili becomes a long-term strategic partner without the cost or complexity of hiring in-house.

The value of part-time CFO services

Many businesses wait too long to bring in strategic financial help — often until there’s a crisis. But having a CFO early can prevent those crises altogether. Trigili helps clients build stronger foundations, make more informed decisions, and run leaner, smarter operations. Her services are cost-effective, giving business owners the benefit of executive financial leadership without the overhead. The result is a more stable, future-ready business that’s equipped to grow on purpose — not by accident.
