    Are you an entrepreneur that wants to take it to the next level? 100% of my coaching clients have shared they are more clear, inspired and energized after working with me. Let me help you find your mojo! I am a Top Rated Plus Business Coach on Upwork with 100% satisfaction score, contact me today! ⚡︎I can help you if you are struggling with these challenges: ● "I have no idea on how to get started with my startup" ● "Life has been chaotic and I need to get clear on my direction " ● "I don't have the energy or motivation right now to grow my business" ● "I want to get to the next level and I am not sure how to get there" ● "I'm starting a new chapter in my life and I need someone to hold me accountable" ● "HELP! I'm overwhelmed and I don't know what to do next" I focus on working with entrepreneurs with startups or small businesses. The process: Who are you? You are the main factor in your success. Why should your business exist? A purpose. How do you do things? Something that makes you unique. What do you offer? Your product or service. All success revolves around the answers to these four questions. All failure comes from a lack of understanding these questions. This is my method. It does not matter if you are a startup or an existing business, this is the core of your work and journey. A client had dozens of business ideas, I helped him launch just one. A client stopped chasing 3 different startups and now is an executive in a new business. One client grew from 5 to 50 employees in just two years. Let's get on a call today! We can set up an initial zoom call in a free 30 min consultation and I will explain how my process will get you the results you are wanting.

    Fractional CFO Services for clothing, fashion, footwear, beauty & ecommerce brands Helping founders maximise cash flow, profits & dividends, whilst creating visibility & reducing anxiety • CFO & Exec Advisory Services for Founders • Forecasting, Projections & Goal Setting • Cash Flow Forecasting & Planning • Margin/Channel Analysis & Improvements Experienced advisor to omni-channel brands, including D2C ecommerce, retail stores, wholesale & marketplaces. Have you got ambitious growth plans for your clothing, fashion, footwear or beauty brand? Do you know how much extra cash you'll need to invest in inventory and ad spend to hit them? Do you know when your brand needs external financing or investment to continue hitting those targets? How does that cash run rate change if you need to hire a key role or outsource to a 3rd party distribution warehouse? Do you sleep soundly knowing that your business can cover your operating expenses next quarter? Growing a brand isn’t easy. You need to balance creativity, quality, and customer demand, while managing your costs, inventory and cash flow. However you don’t have the time to gain mastery in every area of the business. How do founders achieve this balance without sacrificing either creative vision or profits? • They lack the financial expertise to create systems and processes that lead to profits and cash flow. • The only financial support they receive are historic numbers from their accountant and bookkeeper, which doesn't help with strategic decision making. • They do not have the budget for a full time CFO with experience in these sales & marketing channels and funding challenges. Major CFO Consulting was created to provide this very solution, through Fractional CFO Services for ambitious, growth focused, clothing, fashion, footwear & beauty brands between £1m-£15m revenue. As a former CFO/FD who has spent almost 2 decades working in fashion, luxury and consumer brands, I understand your priorities, your sales and marketing channels and funding challenges, so I speak your language and communicate in a way that you as a founder understand. Benefits you can expect from working with me: • You will have a clear and accurate picture of your current financial situation and future projections, so you can make informed and confident decisions. • You will have a strategic partner who understands your industry, your challenges, and your goals, and who can advise you on the best course of action for your business. • You will have more time and energy to focus on what you do best: creating amazing products and delighting your customers. Want to leverage some of what I know to increase your profits, solve cash flow issues, and develop a long-term forecast to start planning confidently for ambitious growth?

    If you are a startup or early-stage founder with a compelling business opportunity but under-capitalized and want to seek funding options, let's talk. I understand, very specifically, what institutional investors want to see to consider your opportunity. Or, as well-known Venture Capitalist Marc Andreesen once said, "The difference between a vision and a hallucination is others will see your vision". I have 20+ years experience in capital markets, both as a founder and working with other founders in successful funding events exceeding $ 450 million. The plan that drives a cap raise begins with a cogent, well-organized, and executable roadmap. Where you are today? How will a capital infusion from an outsider willing to take on the risk allow you to get to the next level? Here is how I start: - Funding readiness: Are you operationally ready? If you're ready, I will tell you. If you’re close but not quite there, I’ll tell you. If you have a lot of work to do before investors will consider you, I'll tell you where the gaps are and let you decide what comes next. - Investor Book: If you're (close to) investor-ready, it's time to build a strong Investor book, guided by your industry and what portfolio investors in your space want to see. - Investor Targets: Investor book is underway. In tandem with, we begin investor due diligence to build a targeted investor list. We look for connections and referrals to partners, analysts, or anyone who can open doors to the target investor. Many believe this is a quick & easy process. You need to know the investors you'll be pitching as if you've worked with them before. If what I've shared makes sense, let's connect, either by direct message or you may invite me to a job you posted on the platform. We can briefly discuss your goals and how I can be of material value if there's a fit. To your success, Mike

If available, we compare the results against previous forecasts and budgets. Next, I record my observations and generate visualizations of the data. From this, I prepare a report sharing my key insights and recommendations, including key performance indicators as appropriate. To help achieve your business financial goals, we meet monthly to discuss your CFO Reviewed Financials™, new opportunities, and other developments; and to determine the proper changes to implement. To help define and track progress against these goals, I build a Comprehensive Financial Model™ to develop forecasts and adopt them as budgets.
