Our Winning Services
Financial Planning and Analysis
We’re your race-team telemetry center—collecting every sensor reading (KPIs, budgets, cash flows) and turning raw data into split-second strategy calls.
For businesses staging a comeback, we analyze your lap times (expense ratios), tire wear (asset utilization) and fuel consumption (working capital) to pinpoint where you’re losing time—and implement targeted pit stops that get you back on the podium.
For healthy companies, we model the optimal racing lines toward long-term goals—fine-tuning your throttle (investment cadence), mapping out pit-stop timing (cash reserves), and stress-testing your engine (scenario analysis) so you can lead every lap, season after season.
For high-net-worth individuals and families, our telemetry extends to your personal Grand Prix—tracking income streams, expense curves, and legacy objectives so you hit every retirement checkpoint, education milestone, and estate-planning apex with precision.
Cash Flow Management
Running out of cash is like running out of fuel mid-lap—crippling. At Sharp CFO™, we act as your pit crew to monitor your fuel gauge (cash inflows and outflows) and keep your financial engine firing on all cylinders.
For businesses in recovery, we orchestrate strategic pit stops—timely working-capital infusions and optimized payables/receivables that prevent stalls and keep operations rolling smoothly.
For high-net-worth individuals and families, we calibrate your personal fuel reservoir—smoothing income streams, managing expense curves, and fueling your generational goals so you and your heirs can cross every finish line with confidence.
For thriving companies, we fine-tune your fuel efficiency—reallocating surplus cash toward growth initiatives, debt reduction, or reserve buffers so you can maintain pole position in your market.
Budget and Forecasting
Your financial circuit—whether it’s your company’s P&L or your personal portfolio—becomes crystal clear with the right map and pace notes. At Sharp CFO™, we chart your course with detailed budgets (track map) and dynamic forecasts (pace notes) so you know exactly when to accelerate, when to pit, and where the chicanes lie.
For businesses in recovery, we highlight the fastest racing lines to profitability—fueling your comeback drive with confidence.
For high-net-worth individuals and families, we plan your financial Grand Prix—timing investment turns, setting retirement checkpoints, and anticipating tax curves so you cross your personal finish line in style.
For healthy companies, we keep you on your optimal lap time, ready to seize every emerging straightaway and avoid unseen hazards.
SWOT Analysis and Strategic Consulting
We kick off every engagement with a pre-race track walk—our detailed SWOT Analysis maps your horsepower (strengths), engine quirks (weaknesses), open straights (opportunities), and potential chicanes (threats).
Armed with that race intelligence, our pit-crew consultants fine-tune your operations, shed excess weight, and optimize every pit stop—cutting costs and accelerating your path to profit.
Whether you’re staging a comeback drive or defending pole position, this race-ready approach ensures your business engine runs at peak performance, lap after lap.
Risk Management and Asset Protection
Don’t let unexpected hazards take you out of the race. Think of us as your pit‐crew strategist—monitoring race conditions, anticipating every curve, and making split-second decisions to fine-tune your financial setup for peak performance.
When businesses tackle tight hairpins, we reinforce your controls and apply strategic braking on risk exposure—preventing costly spin-outs and keeping operations on course.
For individuals and families, we build a roll-cage around your wealth—shielding savings, investments, and estate plans from sudden liability curves so you can accelerate toward your goals with confidence.
Already leading the pack? We stay on standby in the pits—running stress tests, optimizing your safeguards, and ensuring you’re ready for whatever debris the market throws your way.
Financial Reporting
Don’t wait for bad news to catch you off-guard. With proactive financial analysis and targeted tax planning, you can achieve clearer outcomes and retain more of what you earn—whether it’s profit for your company or personal gains in your household.
Our reporting services deliver accurate, timely records that identify critical issues and empower informed decisions—whether you’re steering a business through a turnaround or managing personal investments and retirement strategies.
By maintaining transparency and leveraging forward-looking insights, we optimize tax outcomes, enhance financial stability, and chart a course for sustainable growth for both businesses and individuals.
Case Studies
At Sharp CFO™, our success is measured by the success of our clients. Many of these successes can be directly attributed to the expertise of our founder, Michael DiSabatino, whose hands-on approach has transformed numerous businesses.
While we often highlight our achievements with larger companies, we also dedicate ourselves to supporting even the smallest of businesses. This includes local businesses and service providers who aim to make their operations more profitable, meet financial growth expectations, and secure the best tax solutions and asset protection.
Here are a few examples of how our expertise has made a significant difference for businesses like yours.
Case Study: Lap of Liquidity
Challenge: An electronics manufacturer needed a $5 million bank loan to smooth cash-flow during expansion—but without organized records or clear projections, lenders stalled.
Pit-Stop: We overhauled their financials, built solid projections, and negotiated directly with the bank—securing the full $5 million infusion.
Finish: Fifteen years (and counting) of continuous part-time CFO support: expansion into two new countries, reduced costs, and sustained profitability.
Case Study: Pole-Position Growth
Challenge: A small tech startup lacked a scalable financial plan to attract investors and double headcount.
Pit-Stop: We conducted a full SWOT “track walk,” mapped growth lines, and built an investor-ready financial model.
Finish: Secured significant venture funding and doubled the workforce, positioning the company firmly at the head of its pack.
Case Study: Safety-Car Retail
Challenge: A family-owned retail business was buffeted by market swings and supply-chain disruptions.
Pit-Stop: Implemented layered asset-protection roll-cages, hedged key exposures, and optimized cash-flow fuel lines.
Finish: Achieved lasting financial stability and resilience—navigating uncertainty with confidence and zero spin-outs.
Case Study: Last-Lap Lifeline
Challenge: A 36-employee machine shop risked missing Friday payroll after falling behind on military contracts.
Pit-Stop: On a Tuesday call, we secured bridge funding, restructured payables/receivables, and realigned expense "tire wear."
Finish: Returned to profitability within months, netting $600 K in Year 1 and $1–2 M+ annually in Years 2–3.
Case Study: Checkered-Flag Exit
Challenge: A performance-auto manufacturer was hemorrhaging $50 K/month and the owner resisted change—even as profitability slipped away.
Pit-Stop: Developed a rapid-exit strategy, refocused leadership on profit lines, and accelerated timeline when the owner’s health prognosis shifted urgency.
Finish: Turned an 80% loss into $1 M profit in Year 1, +50% more Year 2, then sold the business for $10 M cash (no holdbacks) in Year 3—securing the owner’s retirement.
Case Study: Endurance Circuit
Challenge: A 100-person law firm featured in Forbes needed decade-long strategic guidance to manage partner-level decisions and complex cash flows.
Pit-Stop: We provided ongoing “telemetry lab” FP&A, tax-planning pit stops, and capital-management fueling—always just a phone call away.
Finish: Ten years of continuous, part-time CFO support that sustained growth, preserved reputation, and optimized partner earnings.
Case Study: Profit Acceleration
Challenge: A mid-sized manufacturer faced declining margins despite steady sales.
Pit-Stop: Conducted deep-dive telemetry (cost-segregation, process optimization) and overhauled their budget forecast.
Finish: Boosted profit margins by 15% in six months, turning steady sales into accelerating returns.
Case Study: Ground-Up Rally
Challenge: A power-sports superstore spent $3 M on a new facility but lacked asset protection and construction-loan readiness.
Pit-Stop: Laid an asset-protection foundation (multiple LLCs), built lender-friendly projections, and applied cost-segregation depreciation.
Finish: Improved early-year cash flow, accelerated debt pay-down, and sustained a six-year growth run before handing off to an in-house controller.
