What you should know.

Is the discovery call really free?

Yes. The 30-minute discovery call is complimentary and comes with no obligations. It is designed for us to understand your business and for you to understand how we work. If there is a fit, we will recommend the right service and send you a clear proposal.

I am not sure which service I need. Can you help me decide?

Absolutely. Most of our clients start with a discovery call where we assess your situation and recommend the best starting point. For many businesses, the Financial Health Audit is the ideal entry point because it gives us (and you) a clear picture of where things stand before committing to ongoing work.

Do you work with businesses outside Nigeria?

Yes. We serve businesses across Africa and diaspora entrepreneurs based in the UK, Europe, and North America who are building or investing in African businesses. We are experienced in both Nigerian and UK regulatory environments, and we work remotely as standard.

How quickly can we get started?

For most engagements, we can begin within one to two weeks of signing the engagement letter. For urgent matters such as a Cash Flow Rescue or time-sensitive investor preparation, we can often move faster. Let us know your timeline during the discovery call.

What makes The SME CFO different from a regular accountant?

We are not an accounting firm. We are a CFO advisory practice. That means we focus on strategic financial leadership: helping you make better decisions with your numbers, not just recording them. Our founder is ACA-qualified with institutional finance experience across treasury, financial control, and corporate banking, and we bring that calibre of thinking to every engagement.

How is the engagement priced?

Every business is different, and our engagements are scoped to reflect the complexity and requirements of each client. During the discovery call, we take the time to understand your business, the work involved, and the outcomes you need. From there, we provide a detailed proposal with a clear investment figure tailored to your specific situation.

Ready?

Walk away from your first call with clarity on where your business stands and a roadmap for what comes next.
