Book a Free Consult

Book a Free Fractional CFO Consultation.

45 minutes. No obligation. A senior Adea fractional CFO will review your current financial situation and tell you exactly what you need — and what it would take to get you investor-ready.

Most founders at the $5M–$30M stage are carrying real financial complexity with accounting infrastructure built for a much earlier stage. This consultation is designed to close that gap — giving you a direct, honest view of where your financials stand relative to what investors, lenders, or board members will expect to see.

What Happens Next

What to Expect From Your Fractional CFO Consultation

01

What Happens on the Call

A senior Adea fractional CFO will ask about your current financial state and near-term milestones — your close cycle, reporting setup, revenue model, and any upcoming capital events. The conversation is structured to give you clarity and a clear read on your financial posture, not to sell you anything.

02

Who You'll Speak With

A U.S.-based senior CFO with direct operating experience in your industry and growth stage — not a sales representative or junior associate. You'll get a real professional who has built financial infrastructure for companies at exactly your stage.

03

What You Walk Away With

A clear picture of where your financial function stands relative to investor expectations — and specific, prioritized actions for closing the gap. You get that clarity regardless of whether you move forward with Adea.

Before You Book

Frequently Asked Questions

Is This Really Free?

Yes — the 45-minute fractional CFO consultation is no-cost and no-obligation. It exists so we can understand your situation clearly before either of us commits to anything. We treat it as a diagnostic conversation, not a sales meeting.

Who Will I Be Speaking With?

You'll speak directly with John Regan, CPA, MBA — Founder & CEO of Adea. Not a salesperson, not a junior associate. John has worked with founder-led companies across medical device, pharma, CPG, SaaS, and DTC — so the conversation will be grounded in your actual industry context.

What Should I Prepare?

Nothing formal. A rough sense of your monthly revenue, which accounting software you're using, and any upcoming milestones — fundraising, audit, board meetings — is all you need. The CFO will guide the conversation from there.

What If We're Not a Fit?

We'll tell you directly. Adea is selective about who we take on, and we'd rather give you an honest answer than waste your time or ours. If you're not at the right stage, we'll say so — and often point you toward what actually makes sense for your situation.

How Quickly Can We Get Started?

If it's a good fit, we move fast. Most Adea engagements kick off within one to two weeks of the initial consultation. We scope, agree on scope of work, and begin — no lengthy procurement cycles or onboarding delays.
