CFO-level financial leadership — applied to the businesses that actually need it most. Small businesses don't get second chances on cash flow. Neither do their books.
Most bookkeepers hand you a report. Trent Fargher hands you clarity. There's a difference — and it's the difference between knowing your numbers and knowing what to do with them.
Over a 20-year career spanning Oracle ERP consulting, multi-location CFO leadership, and hands-on operations across restaurants, hospitality, manufacturing, and construction, Trent has seen what happens when the finances get ahead of the operators — and when operators get ahead of their finances. Neither ends well.
As CFO of a beverage plant and hospitality venue spanning the Mountain West region, Trent built and ran the full financial infrastructure: location-level P&L reporting, multi-entity compliance, NetSuite ERP integration with POS systems, commercial lease negotiation, manager incentive programs, and a bookkeeping operation tight enough to survive a multi-state audit.
Before that, Oracle ERP consulting across multi-location retail and hospitality businesses — walking into organizations where the systems weren't talking to each other, and leaving with clean financial reporting on the other side.
Knock Down Accounting exists because most small businesses can't afford a CFO — but they're running at CFO-level risk. Cash flow gaps, uncategorized transactions, tax surprises, and margins that quietly disappear are CFO problems. You deserve someone who has actually sat in that chair.
Trent works 100% remotely, directly inside your QuickBooks Online, with flat-rate pricing and no hourly billing games. Clean books, every month. No drama.
