How I Help Fractional CFOs Overcome Sales & Marketing Challenges
One of the biggest challenges fractional CFOs face is closing deals and implementing effective sales & marketing strategies. I once worked with a fractional CFO who struggled with this, and through my coaching, we built a proven framework to consistently attract and convert high-value clients.
My Strategic Framework for Fractional CFOs:
✅ 1. Build Authority & Leadership Through Genuine Engagement
Position yourself as a trusted expert by providing value and supporting your audience.
Focus on educating and guiding rather than just selling.
✅ 2. Shift Your Mindset—Fall in Love with the Process
Success in sales comes from embracing the journey, not just chasing the deal.
When you focus on building relationships and solving problems, deals close naturally.
✅ 3. Leverage Authority to Drive Conversions
In my own experience, 50% of my closed deals came directly from building credibility and leadership—not aggressive sales tactics.
✅ 4. Offer Value First—Free Business Health Checks & Webinars
Providing free business assessments builds trust and attracts ideal clients.
I personally host FP&A and financial strategy webinars, which generate strong leads and meaningful connections.
✅ 5. Own Your Sales & Marketing—No One Can Sell Your Expertise Like You
As a fractional CFO, you know your clients’ pain points better than anyone.
Authentic, problem-solving content will always outperform generic sales pitches.
Final Thought: The key to success as a fractional CFO is leading with value, positioning yourself as a financial authority, and mastering the art of relationship-based selling.
