Service FAQs

What is the difference between a Bookkeeper and a Fractional CFO?
A bookkeeper records the past, they ensure your daily transactions are categorized correctly. A Fractional CFO focuses on the future, they use those records to forecast cash flow, plan budgets, and advise on corporate strategy. We provide both.
How long does a CIPC or SARS registration take?
Standard CIPC company registrations typically take 3-5 business days. SARS Income Tax and VAT registrations can vary depending on backlogs, but our established processes ensure the fastest possible turnaround times.
Do you handle SARS disputes or historical penalties?
Yes. Our compliance and accounting teams specialize in historical clean-ups. We will audit your standing with SARS, manage disputes, and arrange payment plans or penalty reversals where legally applicable.
Can we start with a single project before committing to a retainer?
Absolutely. Many of our clients begin with a fixed-scope project, such as an operational audit or setting up Xero, and naturally transition into a monthly Fractional CFO/COO retainer once they see the value we deliver.
