What is SharedCxO?

SharedCxO is built for small businesses that need access to executive-level talent but cannot justify a full-time CFO, COO, or CMO. The typical customer is a company that has moved past startup phase but does not yet have the revenue to support a full-time senior hire.

The membership model—with Venture, Corporate, and Enterprise tiers—suggests a focus on early-stage and growth-stage companies. At the Venture tier ($995/month), finance access is limited; the higher tiers provide more time and more executive functions.

If you run a $5M–$50M company that needs deep, ongoing CFO-level engagement—not periodic executive check-ins—a shared fractional CFO model will likely leave you under-supported. The fundamental constraint is time: a CFO who is shared across multiple clients cannot be as embedded in your business as one who is dedicated to it.

SharedCxO offers a range of fractional executive services:

Fractional CFO: Part-time CFO services for financial leadership, strategy, and oversight. The extent of service depends on the membership tier.

Fractional COO: Operational leadership and guidance for companies needing strategic execution support.

Fractional CMO: Marketing executive access for companies wanting to build their go-to-market function.

Fractional CTO: Technology leadership for companies building product or technical teams.

Fractional CSO and CHRO: Chief Strategy Officer and Chief Human Resources Officer services, rounding out the C-suite spectrum.

The firm uses modern technology to connect business advisors with highly qualified talent, eliminating travel expenses and in-person meeting overhead. This allows the executives to focus their time on client work rather than logistics.

SharedCxO offers three membership tiers:

Venture: $995/month—the entry-level tier providing access to the fractional C-suite network with limited executive hours.

Corporate: $2,995/month—the mid-tier with more executive hours and broader access to the C-suite functions.

Enterprise: $5,995/month—the premium tier for companies needing the most executive time and support.

These prices give small businesses access to executive-level talent at a fraction of what a full-time C-suite compensation would cost. However, the price also reflects that the executives are shared—your fractional CFO is dividing their attention across multiple clients.

Multiple C-suite functions in one place: Unlike firms that specialize in just CFO services, SharedCxO offers COO, CMO, CTO, and other C-suite roles. This can be valuable for very small businesses that need help across multiple functions.

Lower cost than full-time executives: Entry at $995/month is significantly cheaper than a full-time CFO salary (which could run $200,000–$400,000+ per year in total compensation).

Technology-enabled efficiency: Using modern technology to reduce overhead means the executives can focus on client work rather than logistics.

breadth of executive expertise: For a small business that genuinely needs marketing, operations, and finance leadership simultaneously, having one firm that can address all three may simplify vendor management.

Shared attention = diluted attention: The defining limitation is that your executive is shared. At $995/month (Venture tier), the CFO hours you receive are limited. Even at $5,995/month (Enterprise), you are still sharing an executive's attention.

Not built for complex finance needs: Growing companies with $5M–$50M in revenue often have complex accounting, multi-entity, or international considerations that need dedicated focus. A shared CFO model may not provide the depth required.

Generalist executive risk: An executive who is also serving as fractional CMO or CTO for other clients may not have the same deep CFO expertise as a specialist fractional CFO firm where all focus is on finance.

Limited continuity: When executives serve many clients, there is a risk that your account could see turnover or reassignment more frequently than desired.

SharedCxO and Eagle Rock CFO both provide fractional CFO services, but the depth and structure of the engagement differ fundamentally.

Dedicated focus vs. shared attention: Eagle Rock CFO provides a dedicated finance team embedded in your business. SharedCxO's fractional CFO is shared across multiple clients—meaning less time, less context, and less availability for your business.

Full finance function vs. executive advisory: Eagle Rock CFO covers bookkeeping, controller oversight, treasury, AND CFO strategy. SharedCxO provides executive-level guidance but typically does not handle the day-to-day accounting and bookkeeping work through our outsourced accounting services, controller services, and treasury management."

Growing businesses focus: Eagle Rock CFO specifically serves $5M–$50M companies that are past the startup phase and need real financial infrastructure. SharedCxO's model is more suited to very small businesses at earlier stages.

If you need a few hours per month of CFO advice, SharedCxO can work. If you need a dedicated team that owns your complete finance function, Eagle Rock CFO is the better fit through our outsourced accounting services, controller services, and treasury management."
