What the work covers

Senior financial leadership for Edmond businesses

Edmond’s business community spans professional services, healthcare, retail, and a fast-growing base of owner-operated companies. These businesses need real financial capability, cash flow visibility, lender relationships, budget discipline, not just a bookkeeper who files reports after the fact.

Scissortail Fractional provides that capability on a fractional basis, based right here in Edmond. You get senior financial leadership without the $150,000 to $200,000 annual cost of a full-time CFO.

Cash Flow Planning

Short-term and medium-term cash flow visibility built around how your Edmond business actually runs.

Reporting and Dashboards

Monthly and quarterly reporting designed for business owners, not auditors.

01
Cash Flow Management

Weekly and monthly cash flow tracking so Edmond business owners know exactly where cash is going to be, not just where it is today. For professional services, healthcare, and construction businesses in Edmond, cash timing surprises are almost always preventable with the right model.

02
Financial Reporting Built for Decisions

Monthly financial packages that tell a story. P&L by business line, balance sheet, cash flow statement, delivered on time and built for what Edmond business owners actually need to make decisions, not just year-end compliance.

03
Margin and Profitability Analysis

Understanding which customers, service lines, and offerings are actually profitable. Edmond's growing professional services and healthcare sector often have margin compression that only shows up when you look at unit economics, not just top-line revenue.

04
Banking and Capital Access

Managing lender relationships, covenant compliance, and the financial presentation that gets Edmond businesses the capital they need. Scissortail is based here, we know the local banking relationships.

05
Forecasting and Budgeting

Annual budgets and rolling forecasts built around how the Edmond business actually operates. Working models that management uses throughout the year, not spreadsheets that get filed after the planning meeting.

06
Exit Preparation

Preparing Edmond businesses financially for a sale or transition. Clean books, normalized earnings, and the documented financial history that supports a strong outcome when the time comes.

When It's Time

Signs your Edmond business
needs a fractional CFO.

01
Financial decisions are made on bank balance

If checking the account is the primary financial input into your decisions, you're missing the forward picture. A fractional CFO builds the forecast that tells you where you're going, not just where you are right now.

02
Cash is tight despite good revenue

This is the most common financial problem in Edmond's growing businesses. Revenue looks solid but cash is always scarce. The culprit is almost always working capital, receivables timing, billing cycles, or overhead that grew faster than margin.

03
The books wouldn't survive due diligence

If you'd hesitate to show your financials to a lender or buyer, that's the problem to fix. Clean books aren't just for compliance, they're for access to capital and maximum value when you're ready to exit.

04
Your CPA handles tax but not financial strategy

A CPA handles compliance. A fractional CFO handles strategy. If your most substantive financial conversation happens once a year at tax time, there's a gap in financial leadership that's costing you clarity and probably money.

05
You're growing and the financial infrastructure isn't keeping up

The financial systems that worked at $1M break at $5M. Edmond businesses that are scaling quickly need a CFO function that scales with them, not just better bookkeeping.

06
A sale or transition is in the next few years

Edmond businesses that sell for maximum value started the financial preparation early. The work, clean books, normalized earnings, documented processes, takes 2 to 3 years. Starting now creates options.

How an Edmond CFO Engagement Works

Fast start.
Real results.

Step 01

Financial Assessment

A full look at the Edmond business's financial picture, books, cash position, reporting quality, and the gaps that are costing clarity. Most Edmond businesses have at least one financial blind spot that surfaces in the first 30 days.

Step 02

Priority List

The highest-leverage financial improvements in the right order. Not a consulting report, the specific fixes that will have the most impact on financial visibility and the owner's ability to make good decisions.

Step 03

Build the Infrastructure

Implement the cash flow model, reporting package, and budget framework the Edmond business needs. The actual work, not a plan, the execution of it.

Step 04

Ongoing CFO Leadership

Monthly reporting review, cash flow management, and decision support as the Edmond business evolves. The engagement adapts to where the business is going.

Common questions

Questions Edmond business owners ask

What is the difference between a fractional CFO and my current CPA?
Your CPA handles tax compliance and year-end reporting. A fractional CFO is engaged throughout the year, focused on helping you run the business better. They look forward, not just backward. The roles complement each other well.
My business is doing fine. Why would I need this?
Most business owners who reach out are not in crisis. They are growing, or planning a transition, or simply tired of making major decisions without financial clarity. Fine today does not mean fine with the right information.
What does an engagement actually look like day to day?
Most engagements involve a monthly financial review meeting, ongoing access for questions and decisions, and specific project work depending on what the business needs. It is collaborative and built around your schedule.
Do you work with QuickBooks?
Yes. QuickBooks Online is the most common setup among small and mid-size businesses. Part of the early work is often getting the books clean and organized so the reporting is actually useful.
How do I get started?
A free 30-minute conversation. You tell me about your business, I'll tell you honestly whether this is a fit and what it would look like.
