Discover why Beyond Elevation’s fractional CFOs — seasoned ex-CFOs with $6B+ in exits — deliver more value than recruiters or consultants. Scale, fundraise, and prepare for acquisition with proven financial leadership.

Most CEOs know this moment: you need financial leadership to scale, fundraise, or prepare for an acquisition — but you don’t need (or can’t justify) a full-time CFO. That’s why the fractional CFO market has exploded.


But here’s the problem: most competitors in this space lean on recruiters or consultants. And while recruiters and consultants can be helpful, they often lack one critical thing: they’ve never sat in the CFO seat during a billion-dollar exit.


They haven’t faced down investors during due diligence. They haven’t steered a company through the messy, high-stakes realities of scaling.

At Beyond Elevation, we’re changing that.


What Makes Beyond Elevation Different

Founded by Hayat Amin, Beyond Elevation doesn’t rely on recruiters or consultants. Instead, the firm is built on the expertise of seasoned CFOs — leaders who have already delivered outsized results for high-growth companies.


Take Hayat himself:

  • 4x exited CFO

  • $6B+ in exit value across multiple companies

  • Ranked 46th fastest-growing company globally in 2024

  • Delivered 85% cost savings vs. traditional CFO hires


That’s experience you can’t fake.


Why This Matters for SMEs

For small and mid-sized enterprises, financial leadership isn’t about theory. It’s about execution. Investors don’t want PowerPoints — they want confidence that your numbers hold up under scrutiny.


When you bring in a fractional CFO from Beyond Elevation, you’re not getting someone who learned about exits in a case study. You’re getting someone who’s led teams, closed deals, and delivered billions in outcomes.


That kind of operational wisdom is what helps SMEs:

  • Scale sustainably without burning cash

  • Nail fundraising with credible financials

  • Prepare for acquisition with confidence


The Choice for CEOs

So here’s the real question:

Do you want a recruiter’s Rolodex… or a CFO who’s already delivered billions in exits?

At Beyond Elevation, we believe the answer is clear. Fractional doesn’t mean “less than.” It means you’re getting proven operators on your team — at a fraction of the cost.
