Cash Queen 👑 I help CPAs and CFOs with Value Based Pricing and show you how to build a solid LinkedIn Presence💰 Helping business owners build financial freedom

Hey, I’m Fradel. 👋


A few years ago I was stuck at a low-paying job and working crazy hours. Fast forward to today, my business has unlocked for me the sweet taste of financial freedom.

Sound like a dream? 
Here’s how we can make it happen for you-


👉 FOR CFOs, CPAs & ACCOUNTANTS

Does this sound like you?

🗭 "I KNOW I need to upsell my clients, but I'm not sure how to do it right and what to charge"
🗭 "I need to add advisory CFO services, as I want to help my clients take their business to the next level"
🗭 "I need to build a LinkedIn presence to land high-paying advisory clients"

I CAN HELP.

I am an accountant myself and have built a profitable CFO firm with a team to help me deliver. I'm in the trenches every day and I know exactly what works and what doesn't. 

I show you how to build premium packages so you can command premium prices and close deals like a pro.

Selling is a science. And I’ve successfully used that science with accountants and CPA’s to amp up their LinkedIn strategy and helped them reach $35k+ in recurring revenue on a monthly basis. 💸

Sound like we may be a fit? Send me a DM 


👉 FOR BUSINESS OWNERS:

We provide top-notch bookkeeping, consulting, and CFO services. We mainly work within Construction, retail and service-based industries.

Struggling with tight cash flow, not seeing your bank balance rise, or are stuck in debt and confused about where your money is going???

Worry no more, you are in the right place-

We dive deep into the company's financials and interpret the story to our clients’. 

I use my “CFO Success Method” to analyze the 4 P’s in your business:

🧑‍🤝‍🧑People- Is every team member on the right seat and clear with their role and responsibilities?

🏗️Product- What do you sell and, who is your client ?

🔁Process- What's your process to go from first point of contact, to delivering your service/product?

🤑Profit - We create sales targets, analyze your pricing structure, and help you deal with cash flow issues

Within a few weeks, we create a plan on how we would change things up to achieve YOUR financial goals. 👏

I’ve helped companies pay back over 750k in debt within 3 years of working together.
And I’ve shown others how to double their profits, by helping them focus on the services that are making them money and ditching the ones that aren’t.
