Small Business Auxilium gives growing companies the financial leadership of a CFO — without the full-time payroll line. We build your numbers, tell your story, and structure your financing the way lenders actually decide. Auxilium is Latin for help. That’s the whole business model.
From clean books to closed loans to a company ready for sale — one team covers the full arc of your financial life. Based in Dade City and serving Tampa Bay, Pasco County, and St. Petersburg — and clients nationwide, remotely.
Ongoing financial leadership on a monthly retainer: forecasting, cash flow management, KPI reporting, board and lender packages, and a seasoned voice in every major decision.
02We package, position, and place your financing request the way banks want to see it — because we spent 16 years on the approving side. Lines of credit, term loans, SBA, construction, and refinancing.
03Accurate, current books — A/P, A/R, reconciliations, and monthly reporting — delivered in English and Spanish, so your financials are always bank-ready.
04Defined-scope work with a defined price: cash-to-accrual conversions, accounting system cleanups and migrations, internal controls, and audit readiness.
05Owners 3–5 years from exit get a roadmap: quality financials, normalized earnings, documented processes, and the story buyers pay premiums for.
06Buy-side and sell-side analysis, due-diligence preparation, quality-of-earnings support, and deal modeling — with your interests, not the deal’s, at the center.
Most advisors have only ever sat on the borrower’s side of the desk. Our founder spent sixteen years as a community banker — originating loans, writing credit narratives, and sitting in the loan committees where deals live or die. That experience is built into everything we do: your financials are prepared for the scrutiny they’ll actually face, and your loan requests answer the underwriter’s questions before they’re asked.
“Purpose drives structure. Know why you need the money, how much, and how it comes back — and make the banker’s job easy. That’s the whole secret, and almost nobody walks in the door knowing it.”
— Matthew Coughlin, FounderEvery structure has its own page — what it covers, how it works, and the fine print in plain English.
Ongoing CFO leadership and bookkeeping on one predictable fee.

The first step is a no-cost intro call: tell us where the business is, where it’s going, and what’s in the way. If we can help, we’ll propose exactly how — with the scope and fee structure in writing. If we can’t, we’ll tell you that too, and point you toward someone who can.
