Big, Bigger, and To-Be-Continued


CFO Support that grows your business and your confidence

Hi Reader,

I have some big, bigger, and to-be-continued news to share that I can't fit all in one update - so stay tuned for my March update to get all the details.

The big news: We've launched flat-rate due diligence packages for those looking to purchase a business that is under $3M in annual revenue. This is something we've been doing on the down-low (do people still say that?) and it just made sense to make it more formal.

The BIGGER news: Copper8 Strategies will now be under the Finance Fight Club brand. So Yes, we're still doing 1:1 monthly CFO services and all the good things we've been doing - but now only have one company name and one brand.

To-be-continued...

See? I can't get it all in one email.

Have a wonderful week

For Natalie Cook, founder of Copper8 Strategies and Finance Fight Club, that moment came while managing a $1B P&L at Starbucks. Despite having what many would consider a dream job in corporate finance, something was missing. The entrepreneurial spirit that had first sparked years earlier with a small Etsy shop couldn't be ignored.

In Case you missed it...

Finance is not rocket scienceSadly, it’s become this mysterious field for small business owners like yourself. And it keeps owners in the dark from making their best choices for their businesses.
