Controller and CFO Services for Northwood Village Businesses
Executive accounting and controller services for Northwood Village businesses. Strategic financial leadership for galleries, boutiques, and professional firms.
Financial Leadership for Northwood Village
Northwood Village has evolved from an overlooked stretch of Northwood Road into one of West Palm Beach’s most interesting business districts. Galleries that started in 800 square feet now occupy entire buildings. Design studios that began as solo practices employ teams. Boutiques that opened during the recession are still here, still growing. The businesses have matured, and many now need financial leadership that matches where they are, not where they started.
We provide Boca Raton fractional CFO and controller services for Northwood businesses that have outgrown DIY accounting. Our clients typically have someone handling day-to-day bookkeeping but need oversight, strategic guidance, and financial statements they can actually trust. If your business has grown to the point where financial decisions matter and you’re not sure your numbers are right, that’s who we work with.

Northwood Businesses We Work With
The monthly art walks bring foot traffic, but Northwood’s real economy runs year-round. Design firms working with clients across South Florida. Retailers managing inventory and seasonal cycles. Galleries balancing consignment accounting with owned inventory. Professional service firms that chose Northwood for the creative energy but run sophisticated practices.
What connects them is growth that created financial complexity. Revenue increased, staff got hired, the books got harder to manage. The owner who used to handle everything now needs to focus on running the business instead of reconciling accounts at midnight.
Galleries and Art Businesses
Galleries and Art Businesses
Consignment accounting, artist payouts, inventory valuation, and event revenue. The art business has financial complexity that general accountants often miss. We understand the revenue timing and reporting these businesses require.
Design and Creative Studios
Design and Creative Studios
Architecture firms, interior designers, marketing agencies, creative studios. Project profitability, utilization tracking, and financials that show which work actually makes money. Controller oversight for firms with internal bookkeepers.
Boutique Retail
Boutique Retail
Inventory management, cost of goods sold, seasonal cash flow planning. Retailers who have grown beyond a single owner doing everything and need financial statements that reflect reality.
Restaurants and Hospitality
Restaurants and Hospitality
Northwood’s restaurant scene has grown with the neighborhood. Food cost tracking, labor analysis, and financial oversight for operators who need accurate numbers to manage tight margins.
Common Questions
Do you work with galleries and art businesses?
Yes. Northwood has galleries, design studios, and creative businesses that have grown beyond what the owner can manage financially. We provide the controller and CFO support that lets you focus on the creative side while someone handles the numbers.
What size business do you typically work with?
Businesses doing roughly $500K to $10M in revenue. Big enough to need real financial leadership but not ready for a full-time CFO. Most of our Northwood clients have internal staff handling day-to-day bookkeeping and need oversight and strategy.
How is this different from bookkeeping?
We don't do day-to-day transaction entry. We review and correct the work your internal staff does, make adjusting entries, close the books properly, and provide strategic guidance. Controller and CFO work, not bookkeeping.
Where are you located?
Boca Raton, about 25 minutes south. Close enough for in-person meetings when needed, though most work happens remotely.
Can you help if our books are a mess?
Yes. We offer financial records cleanup to get things current and accurate before moving to ongoing controller services. Most businesses have some cleanup needed before we can provide meaningful oversight.
