CFO Datavations | CEO of Fractional CFO Firm | Finance Support for Pre-Seed to Series B stage VC-backed companies
You are a ๐งโ๐ปdata-driven VC-backed founder that is focused on building product but are frustrated ๐ซ with the lack of visibility into how your business is objectively performing ๐โ. We are ๐ ๐ซ๐๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง๐๐ฅ ๐๐ ๐๐ฌ ๐๐จ๐ซ ๐๐-๐๐๐๐ค๐๐ ๐ฌ๐ญ๐๐ซ๐ญ๐ฎ๐ฉ๐ฌ. Within a couple of months, we give our clients โข ๐clarity on where they want to invest, โข ๐visibility on how theyโre doing (month-by-month), โข ๐คknowledge on when theyโll run out of money โข ๐บ๏ธ...and a roadmap so that that day never comes. We develop a driver-based operating model that empowers founders to make informed, data-driven capital allocation decisions for growth to extend runway and create KPI dashboards that measure performance against targets and industry benchmarks. Clients typically invest under 10 hours in the first month to outline the unique levers of their business, followed by another 10 hours over the next two months to refine and deliver a Version 1 of the operating model. Working with us gives you "stability and visibility" to the finance function and allows you to focus on things that matter to you -- product and GTM. ๐๐๐ฌ๐ญ๐ข๐ฆ๐จ๐ง๐ข๐๐ฅ๐ฌ ๐ฅ "StratFi came on and helped us secure a top-notch round of funding. I could have only done that by working with StratFi. Our level of confidence and organization separated us from other startups at the Seed stage." - Philip Odelfelt, CEO & Founder of Datavations, a B2B SaaS company that raised a $4.2M Seed "I was in a bind when my VP of Finance landed in the hospital during our Series A fundraise and I needed support ASAP. The StratFi team got up to speed on the complexities of our business model and cleaned-up the financial forecast. I now consider StratFi my outsourced VP of Finance and rely on them for all things FP&A. I'll reach out to StratFi as I grow our finance team." - Patrick Hoogendijk, COO of Overproof, a B2B SaaS company "Shirak and the StratFi team are highly reliable and great communicators, who quickly adapted their processes to meet our government-focused start-up needs and provided us with the visibility to allow me and the rest of the team to operate confidently and plan ahead." Scott Nelson, COO of Scout Space, a B2G Space Manufacturing company ๐๐๐ญ'๐ฌ ๐๐๐ฅ๐ค We want to be your partner and grow with you through your critical growth stages, from pre-Seed and Seed rounds to Series A and beyond, and help you navigate fundraising.
