Michelle’s contribution to our organization can be summarized in a phrase “Michelle knows what right looks like.” It’s my highest compliment. Only professionals that have well developed critical thinking skills, experienced successes and made them better - always improving - good is just a stepping stone to great and great is step towards the pursuit of perfection. A professional who has seen failures and quickly developed a new plan - avoiding the unforeseen problems of change. Through this Michelle has the ability to look at an organization’s services and define desired deliverables, look at the personnel, systems, processes and culture and determine - what it should look like - develop and implement a plan to timely get there without breaking what’s working. Michelle is truly a unique professional.

I have had the pleasure of working with The William Stanley CFO Group for several years, and their services have been nothing short of exceptional. As an LCSW and owner of Pro Therapy Plus, I have encountered many so-called fractional CFOs who primarily offer bookkeeping services rather than true strategic advisory. However, The William Stanley CFO Group stands out distinctly in this regard. Their partnership has been instrumental in providing valuable insights that have propelled my business forward. The time spent looking at our books and numbers resulted in several, doable ways to increase revenue and productivity. They also invest deeply in relationships, which has built an incredible depth of knowledge about my business. This personalized approach has allowed them to serve as a comprehensive partner, addressing not just the financial aspects but also contributing to the overall strategic direction of my practice. Simply put, they offer the best fractional CFO services in Tampa. If you're looking to take your business to the next level, they're the partner for you. Their commitment to understanding the unique needs and challenges of my business has been evident in every interaction. I highly recommend The William Stanley CFO Group to any business seeking a true partner in growth and financial strategy. • Erica DuPont, LCSW Owner, Pro Therapy Plus

I have thoroughly enjoyed working with Michelle as she guided and mentored our company on its financial journey. From day 1, we had clearly retained a trustworthy financial expert and strategic financial leader. She brought a fresh perspective to our start-up/scale-up, highlighting key areas we needed to address. Her actions have directly impacted the way we attacked the problem and contributed to our course correction - all while bringing a smile to everyone she met. Michelle can light up a room with her fun, witty personality. She can take a complex and intimidating topic and turn it into something everyone in the room understands. I am lucky to have crossed paths with her and hope to work with her again.

Michelle gets results, plain and simple. She can take a collection of concepts, financial requests, and ideas and turn them into specific actionable financial and operational strategies with a clear and concise roadmap. Michelle brings a focused yet collaborative approach; she offers invaluable advice, strategic input, and practical implementation for startups, companies, and organizations, including board-level guidance. She is extremely effective at putting structure around financial and operational problems and objectives. Michelle helped organize and refocus the efforts of an underwritten credit undergoing a strategic and financial turnaround during COVID. I observed firsthand Michelle’s effective communication - to clearly explain critical nuances of the business during a key site review. She was highly attuned to financial requirements and shifting credit priorities. Our confidence in Michelle’s command of the Company's financial and operational aspects was one key factor influencing our credit approval decision. She’s particularly effective because of her prior experience as a CFO and working for large clients across multiple industries. Michelle assembles teams that can carefully listen and tackle accounting and financial challenges and strategic goals. I highly recommend small and medium-sized businesses at any stage to get involved with The William Stanley CFO Group to grow and benefit from her knowledge-driven and disciplined approach.
