Margin math

See what one order really earns

Most founders know their revenue to the dollar. Far fewer know what a single order earns once every cost is counted. Here’s a worked example with round numbers.

On paper, $150 against a $50 CAC looks like a healthy 3 to 1. In practice it’s $28 on a $150 sale. That $28 is the number we put on your dashboard every month.

Fair questions

What founders ask before they book a call

We already have a bookkeeper and a CPA. Why add a CFO?

Your bookkeeper records what happened and your CPA keeps your filings right. We take those same numbers and turn them into decisions on ad budgets, reorders and pricing. We work alongside both, and we never prepare tax returns.

Most of our sales come from Amazon. Are we a fit?

Tell us your channel mix on the intro call. We’ll look at where your revenue and margin come from and say plainly whether we’re the right team for your business.

Is a CFO worth the fee at our size?

That depends on how many big calls you’re making on gut feel. If you can’t say what an order earns after ad spend, or cash feels tight while sales climb, the intro call shows whether the gap justifies a monthly retainer.

Insights & answers

FAQs about our Ecommerce CFO services

Find answers to the most common questions Ecommerce founders are asking before hiring us.

If you're an Ecommerce or D2C brand selling primarily on Shopify and/or Amazon, our Ecommerce CFO services were built specifically for you. We have 10+ years of experience catering to Ecommerce CFO needs and we hold that as our primary focus when helping companies. We're entrepreneurs ourselves so we understand what it's like to scale companies and we apply that first-hand knowledge to helping with your finances.

Most DTC and Ecommerce brands pay between $3k–$10k per month depending on the complexity and scope of CFO work. The right way to look at it is ROI: a good Ecommerce CFO service should save you multiples of their fee by preventing mistakes, improving cash flow, and unlocking growth. That's what we aim for at CFO Expertise for all our Ecommerce clients.

Our Ecommerce CFO services include accrual-based financials by the 10th of the month, complete with a full KPI dashboard. The finance dashboard includes COGS, contribution margin, CAC, LTV, payback, shipping costs, and overhead trends (depending on what package you sign up for). We'll meet with you to review the financials, provide insights for future growth, and make suggestions based on the data. In addition, we take on financial projects as they come up for one-time fees on top of your monthly package. 

This depends on the Ecommerce CFO package that you sign up for. For the majority of our clients, we meet 1-4+ times each month to review financials and work on special projects. For our most basic package, there aren't any scheduled meetings each month. Instead, you receive a monthly video walkthrough of your dashboard from your CFO. Additional meetings can always be purchased for a one-time fee.

At CFO Expertise, we cater primarily to high-growth Ecommerce and DTC brands doing $1M–$50M+ in revenue that sell on Shopify and/or Amazon and need financial clarity and cash flow discipline. Our Ecommerce CFO services are most ideal for founders who are great at sales and brand-building, but want a strategic partner to connect finance, marketing, and ops.

Yes, of course! A high percentage of our Ecommerce clients are scaling toward acquisition or private equity. We help you clean up financials, structure your data room, maximize EBITDA, and model valuations. The goal is simple: make you look bulletproof to buyers.
