Your CFO agent helps you see cash, margin, and risk in plain words. Bring clean questions and real numbers when you can.
Step 1: Clarify the time window
Say if you want a daily, weekly, or monthly view. Finance answers change with the window you pick.
Step 2: Separate profit and cash
Ask for both. Profit can look fine while cash feels tight. You want both stories.
Step 3: Name your biggest cost buckets
Examples are labor, materials, rent, and ads. Buckets help the agent find leaks fast.
Step 4: Ask for a simple forecast
Request the next thirteen weeks of cash if you run tight. A short forecast beats a vague worry.
Step 5: Set a monthly finance review
Put a repeating calendar invite. Steady rhythm prevents surprises.
What happens next
You will make calmer decisions because numbers arrive before panic.
