From Financial Uncertainty to Total Founder Confidence

Before: The Growth Bottleneck

Revenue is growing, but cash always feels tight
Inventory ties up capital at the worst possible times
You don’t know which SKUs actually fund the business
Hiring and ad spend feel like guesses
Your dashboards show loads of numbers, but are not helping you make decisions

You’re not bad at business.You’re just missing a financial lens built to make sense of the numbers.

After: Proactive Financial Control

Clear cash flow and profitability forecasting, that reflects the realities of running an inventory-heavy business
Clarity on revenue and profitability per SKU and per channel - so you can know what’s working, and what’s not
Decision making support for all the stuff that keeps you up at night - hiring & firing, managing PPC budgets, product and channel expansion decisions.
A simple financial rhythm you can actually maintain

No overwhelm. Just the information you need to lead with confidence.

Trusted by PURPOSE-LED ECOMM & CPG FOUNDERS

Built for founders managing inventory, growth, and real-world margins
Strategy-first financial guidance - not generic dashboards

Our fractional CFO work follows a simple, proven strategic roadmap:

1. Transparency

You can’t fix what you can’t see. The first step in all our engagements is setting you up with data and dashboards that empower you to understand what’s going on inside your business.

2. Priorities

We’ll take time to understand your goals, and what you’re working towards. Looking for an eight figure exit? Want to build a lifestyle business? Or perhaps you just need to pay yourself consistently. We understand your short and near term priorities so we can build a strategy that supports them.

3. Focus

Once we understand where you’re at right now, and where you want to get to, we’ll help you prioritize and get laser focused on the 2-3 things that are really going to move the needle for you and your business.

4. Implementation

Think of us like your ‘co-founder on demand’. We just happen to be a cofounder that’s really good at finance and data. We’ll help connect you with the people, tools and technology you need to help achieve your goals.

This isn’t about perfect numbers.
It’s about better decisions.

Here’s our promise:

Predictable cash flow instead of constant surprises
Less vulnerable to shiny objects, more focused on the things that move the needle
Feeling empowered and enlightened by their financial statements, instead of overwhelmed or confused
Less stress, more clarity and confidence

This is what financial clarity feels like.

FROM CHAOS TO CLARITY

”Having the confidence to know that you're ahead of the game and having a better sense of our own business is very comforting. It's exciting. It takes you from feeling demoralized to feeling excited and positive. You can start getting ahead of the curve. It’s this kind of positive feedback loop that really re-engaged me in my own business in a really positive way.”

Paul Hodges - CEO & Co-Founder @ Soltech Solutions

THE PRACTICAL, LASTING KNOWLEDGE

I would say, if you're serious about growing your eCommerce business, you've got to look at your numbers - and even if you are looking at them, chances are you don't know what to do with them. That's what this mastermind taught me: practical, lasting knowledge that no one can take away. It made me realize that the financial piece is absolutely non-negotiable when you're a CEO.”

Magdalena - Founder of Wellena, Nutritionist, and Herbalist

FROM PLAYING IT SAFE TO LEADING WITH CONFIDENCE

“Before joining, I felt overwhelmed by the numbers in my business - like I was constantly second-guessing every decision. This program gave me clarity and confidence, showing me exactly what to focus on and how to use my finances as a tool for growth. Now, instead of feeling stressed, I actually feel empowered and excited to make smarter, more intentional choices for my business.”

Jack Parcell - Co-Founder @ Bold Aviator

FROM SKEPTICISM TO CLARITY IN NUMBERS

“I was skeptical about hiring a fractional CFO, unsure if the ROI would be worth it. After working with Nate, I not only see the clear value, but also feel confident in my numbers, cash flow, and long-term strategy. From optimizing time and tasks to exploring new growth channels, I finally have accurate, actionable financials - and the clarity to move forward with confidence.”

- Kyle - Founder of Stealth eComm Startup

Hi, I’m Nate!

Founder of Future Ready | Fractional CFO | Ex-Founder | Wall St. Escapee

I’ve been where you are - running a mission-driven brand, wearing all the hats, and wondering why the numbers still don’t add up.

Before launching Future Ready, I built my own eComm startup from a $40K Kickstarter to a 7-figure business. I’ve sat in the founder seat, and I know how lonely it can feel when the numbers get messy.

Earlier in my career, I spent nearly a decade on Wall Street, analyzing financial statements, spotting patterns, and learning to read data like a story. That’s what I bring to founders today: the ability to make sense of the mess, build smart systems, and lead with confidence - without losing sight of purpose.

Through 1:1 support, group programs, and free tools, I help purpose-led brands get financially Future Ready.

📍 Based in Brooklyn. Always down to swap founder stories over coffee (or spreadsheets).
