How does Backbend work?
In our experience, when we work with earlier stage companies, we generally see the following needs:
Project-based - founder or leadership team needs help building a forecast model, preparing for an investor conversation, implementing a set of KPIs, reviewing or creating unit economics analyses. These are typically finite projects.
Advisor or mentorship - company requires 3-5 hours/week to work on a continuous flow of special projects, or support the entrepreneur in preparing for a capital event.
Ongoing fractional CFO - We need somebody to implement financial and/or accounting best practices and frameworks, perform ongoing monitoring of treasury and business performance, along with work on continuing special projects related to capital raises, investor/board relations.
Present Backbend with your needs and we will work with our network of CFOs to identify the best fit for your consultant needs. All consultants are vetted through membership in the Next Series Club and meet our rigorous standards for professional experience and moral compass. We will make the introduction and help you finalize an agreement with your consultant.
