Built on trust. Driven by clarity.

Helder Advisory gives CEOs and founders the financial leadership they need — without the cost of a full-time CFO. From clean books to confident forecasting, we bring structure to your numbers so you can focus on running your business.

01. | A Financial Partner You Can Trust

Most small businesses outgrow their bookkeeper long before they can justify a full-time CFO. Helder Advisory fills that gap. With hands-on experience in public accounting and manufacturing controllership, we bring big-company financial discipline to businesses that are ready to grow but need the right financial foundation to do it.

Hands-On Experience

Public accounting and manufacturing controllership background — not just theory.

Numbers You Can Trust

Accurate, timely financials so you always know where you stand.

Built for Small Businesses

Right-sized financial leadership without the overhead of a full-time hire.

Growth-Ready Thinking

Financial structure designed to support your next stage, not just survive the current one.

02. | What We Deliver

We help business owners move from guesswork to clarity. Whether you need monthly financials you can actually read, a cash flow forecast that holds up, or someone to sit beside you when you talk to your banker — we deliver the financial infrastructure growing businesses need.

  • Bank and lender presentation support

  • KPI dashboards

  • Financial process documentation

03. | Our Services

We bring the financial leadership your business needs — structured around how you actually operate. Every engagement is tailored, but our work falls into three core areas.

  • Clean chart of accounts and consistent processes

  • Technology recommendations matched to your actual needs

04. | How We Work

Every engagement starts with understanding where you are and where you want to go. Our process is straightforward, transparent, and designed to deliver results — not reports that collect dust.

Frameworks:

  • Discovery & Assessment - We start by reviewing your current financials, systems, and pain points. No jargon, no fluff - just an honest look at where things stand.

  • Build the Foundation - We clean up your books, establish reliable processes, and set up the reporting structure your business needs to make confident decisions.

  • Ongoing Partnership - We stay embedded in your business as your fractional CFO or controller — delivering monthly financials, advising on key decisions, and scaling support as you grow.

05. | Common Questions

What size businesses do you work with?We typically work with owner-operated businesses doing $1M–$20M in annual revenue — companies that have outgrown their bookkeeper but aren't ready for a full-time CFO or controller.

How does a fractional engagement work?We embed in your business on a part-time basis — usually a set number of hours per month. You get dedicated financial leadership without the full-time salary, benefits, and overhead.

How quickly can you clean up my books?It depends on how far behind things are, but most catch-up projects are completed within 30–60 days. We'll give you an honest timeline after our discovery call.

What does a discovery call look like?It's a free, no-pressure 30-minute conversation. We'll ask about your business, your current financial setup, and what's keeping you up at night. If we're a fit, we'll outline a plan. If not, we'll point you in the right direction.
