Sound familiar?

You’re running a real business on numbers you can’t fully see.

No one is shopping for “FP&A.” You’re facing a decision. Choose the one on your desk — and see exactly what the firm builds for it.

A real budget and forecastFlat budgets make every month a surprise.

The build: a driver-based operating model — annual budget, rolling forecast, scenario toggles.

What the business is worthYou know it has value — you can’t defend the number.

The build: a defensible valuation range — DCF, market cross-checks, sensitivity tables, summary memo.

A dashboard leadership can trustReports arrive late, disagree with each other, and get retyped by hand.

The build: a live Power BI command center built on clean, documented data plumbing.

Build my dashboard →
Cash runway, under any assumptionRevenue is up, but cash still feels tight.

The build: a cash-flow and runway model that answers “how long does cash last?”

A raise, sale, or lender conversationThe other side’s analysts will stress-test everything.

The build: diligence-ready models and valuation support, every assumption documented.

Monthly FP&A without the full-time hireNo one owns the numbers between board meetings.

The build: a monthly rhythm — actuals vs budget, variance causes, refreshed forecast, leadership call.

Built for your industry

Complex operations, owner-led, no finance team. That is the firm’s entire lane.

Briggs Advisory Group speaks the operating language — route density, unit-hours, deadhead, WIP — of businesses that outgrew their bookkeeping years before they could justify a finance department.

What you build

Finance built around your decisions.

Every engagement ends in something you own and can run — scoped to the decision in front of you, and delivered by the principal, start to finish.

Fixed scope, fixed fee — agreed before any work starts.

Most finance help stops at a file. This ends in a decision.

The rigor of a corporate finance department, delivered by one accountable principal, and wired so every engagement runs the same way: your real inputs in, a transparent core, a decision out.

Drivers inBuilt from how you actually make moneyVolume, pricing, labor hours, conversion — modeled from your operations, not “last year plus 10%.”
Transparent coreEvery number traceable to its sourceNo black boxes. Your CPA, your board, or a buyer’s analyst can follow every formula back to the data.
Decision outA fixed scope, a fixed fee, a clear callPriced in writing before work starts, and scoped to end in a decision you can act on — not a file.

03

Build

The model, valuation, or dashboard — built transparently from your drivers, with check-ins along the way.

1–3 weeks, by scope
04

Yours to keep

From the founder

The person on the other end of the numbers.

I’m Seth Briggs — I founded Briggs Advisory Group because owner-led companies kept getting handed reports when what they needed were answers. My favorite part of this work is sitting down with an owner, pulling a messy question apart, and building the machine that settles it.

When you engage the firm, you get me — my models, my direct line, my full attention — until the decision is made. Everything on this site is work you can open, inspect, and question. Bring me a hard problem. That’s the fun part.

Do you replace my CPA or bookkeeper?
No. Your CPA handles tax and compliance; your bookkeeper records what happened. The firm’s work is forward-looking — FP&A, modeling, valuation analysis, dashboards, and decision support. It sits on top of clean books and alongside your existing team.
What data do you need?
Typically 2–3 years of financials (P&L and balance sheet), current interim numbers, payroll summaries, and any billing or operations exports. QuickBooks and Excel exports are fine — cleanup is part of the build, not your homework.
How do fixed-fee projects work?
After a short diagnostic call and a data review, you get a written scope with a fixed fee — before any work starts. No hourly meters, no surprise bills. If the scope changes, the fee changes in writing first.
Is this a formal certified business appraisal?
No, unless separately scoped with the appropriate professionals. Standard valuation analysis is designed for planning, capital raising, buy/sell discussions, and internal decision support — not tax, litigation, or fairness-opinion use.
What do engagements cost?
Every engagement is a fixed fee, agreed in writing before any work starts: driver-based operating models from $3,900, business valuation analysis from $4,500, Power BI command centers from $2,900, and monthly FP&A partnership from $2,450 a month. For context, a fractional CFO typically runs $3,000–8,000 a month and a full-time analyst $85,000+ a year — this work is priced at the floor of the specialist market, and every build is yours to keep. The full menu is on each service page and in the pricing section above.
Do I own the model?
Yes. The deliverable is yours — file, documentation, and all — unless otherwise stated. No black boxes, no proprietary lock-in, no dependency on the firm.
