You can't see the cash you actually have.

You're not sure which products or channels

Sarah Delevan
I'm Sarah

When my own grocery closed because we couldn't make the financials work, it opened my eyes to how many other independent food businesses suffered the same fate — despite amazing products and raving fans. How would we ever change our food industry if independent food businesses can't succeed?

Through various roles in regional food, a solution became clear — and in 2017 I founded Sarah Delevan Consulting to help founders identify and execute customized financial strategies. Since then, I've helped hundreds of food founders achieve financial sustainability through our Profit by Design framework.

Let's Talk

Not sure it's the right fit — or not sure you're ready yet?
Let's talk it through.

And if you've got a few ducks to get in a row first, we'll help you get there — that's what support every step of the way means.

FAQs
Do I have to commit to the monthly subscription for a certain # of months?

No, you can subscribe for a single month and cancel anytime. We want this software to be valuable and frequently used in your business so we hope you stick around, but we also want to alleviate the pressure of having to lock into a long-term commitment. Your business has its seasons and we want to make sure we're here for you when you need us most.

Do I have to opt into CFO Office Hours?

Nope! Office Hours is an optional value-added service included with your subscription that brings together a community of food founders all using the software as they launch and grow their business. Office Hours provides you with the opportunity to get your financial questions answered by Sarah, 1-on-1 in a small group setting.

I've purchased your spreadsheets already. Do I need the software?

That means you're an OG! Thanks so much for your support! You don't need the software but it does offer more tools — like our COGS calculator (which we didn't offer before), Quickbooks Sync which speeds up the process for getting monthly financial insights, and the software connects ALL of your financial data in one place like never before. Most find it easier to use than spreadsheets, and you get CFO insights from Sarah throughout + weekly Office Hours at no additional cost.

Does Sarah sort out my business finances for me?

Inside the software, Sarah provides CFO insights via clickable videos and onscreen icons. Insights can include: how your product margins impact your cash flow, key takeaways about your business financials, next steps for improving profitability, and how to set the right financial goals for your business. If you want even deeper insights and feedback on your financials, join Sarah in CFO Office Hours.

I'm not tech savvy. Will I be able to understand this software?

YES! Our goal is to make this software intuitive to use, walking you through the process step-by-step with supportive videos and tips every step of the way.

You also have access to a free 1-on-1 onboarding call with Sarah after you subscribe. You'll find the link to schedule in your welcome email.

Are there refunds?

Due to the digital nature of the software, all sales are final. There are no refunds or transfers, but you can cancel your subscription at any time.

I'm just getting started with my business idea, can the software help?

Yes! We've seen too many founders launch a business without all of the information and tools needed to succeed, and it's a big part of why we created this software.

Our Pre-Launch subscription level is designed to help founders from day one, as you develop your recipes, begin to test your products and consider pricing and sales strategies the software and Office Hours help you create a winning and profitable strategy.

I've been in business for years but need help with my finances, is this software a good fit?

Our software is designed for food business founders operating without a CFO or strategic financial partner.

No matter how many years you've been in business, how high or low your revenue is, how complicated or simple your business model is...the software is designed to help you understand your finances, make smart strategic decisions and grow your business profitably - with confidence.
