Financial guidance to help you grow your business, maximise its value & exit successfully
No more wondering what your business is worth or why you're struggling to pay bills at month end. Our flexible services for start-ups & SMEs help you understand your business, reach your financial goals, feel less stressed and get your life back!
Business owners often feel trapped.
The main causes:
Lack of Knowledge
You know you should review your financials, but you don’t know how. You’d like to exit one day but you don’t know what your business is worth or how to find out.
Lack of Systems
You lack systems to regularly review your business & see what’s making money & what’s not. So you can’t identify problems or opportunities for growth.
Lack of Clarity
You have a sense of your goals for your business but they’re not written down. Plus you don’t know what to do to take you closer to these goals, so you just keep on firefighting
The Solution
We offer a simple way to manage your business so you can use it as a vehicle to reach your personal and professional goals. A business is, at its heart, a money making machine, or at least it should be!
Using your existing bookkeeping records as the foundation, we apply our proven CFO framework and turn your data into clear, practical insights. We work with you to create actionable steps each month which quickly have a measurable impact on your business.
Every month we:
- Translate your numbers into a simple dashboard you can actually understand.
- Pinpoint what’s working and what isn’t, and walk you through it in simple terms.
- Guide to you taking focused actions in the business that will directly impact your bottom line.
- Provide ongoing support to keep you on track, and regular check-ins.
No jargon, no fluff, no complex accounting language. Practical insights and support that make a difference

We know all too well how hard running a business can be, constantly juggling, worrying about finances and wondering why all the hard work isn’t paying off. Early mornings, late nights, missing out on precious time with family.
But, we also know what it feels like to have a business that’s financially healthy, producing steadily increasing profits and cash, where the owner can take time off, earn real money and enjoy having a business that works for them, instead of toiling away endlessly. We are on a mission to help as many business owners as possible experience that too.
Cathy Higginson founded Simple Figures CFO Solutions to fill a gap.
She noticed that clients were coming to her from other accountants, frustrated because although their books were in good order, their business was struggling and they didn’t understand why.
Business financials provide crucial insights into the underlying functioning of a business. Without a guide to interpret these, many business owners continue for years stressed, worried and not making the money or having the time with their family they deserve. Simple Figures CFO Solutions is on a mission to change this.
Nowadays our sole focus is on advising small and medium-sized businesses how to grow and have a successful business.
As well as an AAT accounting qualification, Cathy is a Certified Business Strategist and set-up and ran two other businesses before Simple Figures CFO.
