Our Featured Clients
Here are some of the clients we have empowered to forge ahead with confidence
Nancy - Vintage Charm
"We can't speak highly enough about Frak Finance. Their customized CFO services
have transformed the way we manage our retail business. Their team took the time to understand our industry, challenges, and goals, allowing them to provide tailored financial strategies that have significantly improved our profitability. Their insightful analysis of our financial data has given us a competitive edge, and their responsiveness to our needs has made them an integral part of our strategic planning. Working with Tom has been a game-changer for our business."
Mark Oden - BIM Designs
"Frak Finance has worked with BIM Designs, Inc. from June 2022... as a Fractional CFO.
During this time, Tom brought his extensive financial and people management expertise to support rebuilding our finance organization from the ground up while the firm transitioned out of a startup mindset and into a mature organization. Tom would excel in an organization where leaders hold themselves accountable and own true to their commitments, needs are explored and clearly stated, and collaboration is considered paramount."
Dhruv Singh - Aktivate
“I recommend Frak Finance for any early-stage, high-growth company that needs a smart,
reliable team who has done it before and can get things done well and quickly, all with a smile on their face. Tom sees the big picture as a founder/investor himself. He can also understand the details quickly as a prior operator. I personally threw Tom in the deep end to build our financial model prior to our 10MM+ raise with little guidance on the eve of a holiday weekend (it was a pre-emptive opportunity). Tom delivered in the face of this aggressive deadline with a smile on his face.”
Jeff August - August Medical
“What Frak Finance has really done for me is give me time back to spend with my family
and clarity around how my business is really performing. They cleaned up our books, built a proper chart of accounts, and completely changed the conversation with my accountant by providing structured, reliable books. Even when things feel messy on my end, I know the financial foundation is solid — and that’s been huge.”
Adam Elias - WhirlyBall
“I needed a solution that was cost effective but high quality and high caliber.
So that's where Frack comes into mind because... Level of attention and care and transparency. They take care of what your needs are and they tailor it exactly to what your business requires. You're not just hiring Frack, you're hiring an entire team of experts and you're not just getting this one individual on your team, you're getting our entire network."

Business Cash Flow Management Services for Owners Who Need the Full Picture
Revenue-Positive,
Cash-Tight
Your P&L looks healthy but your bank account doesn’t agree. You need someone who can trace the disconnect between profit and cash, usually hiding in working capital, payment timing, or growth investments. If revenue is growing but liquidity isn’t, that’s exactly the problem we solve.
$1M–$50M
in Revenue

Seasonal or Cyclical Businesses

If you’re raising debt or equity, pursuing a line of credit, or preparing for a sale, your cash flow forecast is the first thing a lender or buyer examines. We build the projections, stress-test the scenarios, and deliver the financial package that makes your capital story credible.

Frequently Asked Questions
The most common questions business owners ask before outsourcing their cash flow management.
What exactly is a 13-week cash flow model?
It’s a rolling, week-by-week projection of every cash inflow and outflow for the next 13 weeks. Unlike a P&L, which shows profit, a 13-week model shows actual cash movement when money arrives, when it leaves, and where gaps appear. It’s updated weekly as actuals replace projections, so it stays live and accurate. This is the standard tool lenders, investors, and boards use to evaluate cash health and it’s the most practical forecasting tool for any business managing real cash pressure.
How is this different from what my bookkeeper already does?
Your bookkeeper records transactions and closes the books. That tells you what happened. Cash flow management tells you what’s about to happen and what to do about it. We build forecasting models, working capital analysis, scenario planning, and cash controls that go well beyond the accounting close. Think of it this way: bookkeeping is the rearview mirror. Cash flow management is the windshield. Both are essential, but only one tells you where you’re going.
Can you help during a cash crisis or just for ongoing management?
Both. We’ve stepped into active cash crunches, seasonal downturns, lost clients, unexpected expenses and delivered near-daily cash monitoring to navigate through them. We’ve also built steady-state cash management systems for businesses that simply want better visibility and forward planning. The 13-week model works in both modes: crisis triage and proactive control.
What does pricing look like for cash flow management services?
It depends on the complexity of your cash structure, number of entities, revenue streams, seasonal patterns, and how often you need reporting. Engagements can start as focused as building a single 13-week model and scale into ongoing weekly monitoring with scenario analysis. We’ll scope it on the fit call. No rigid packages. No surprises.
