Contact Cool Change Consulting
Yes, Cool Change Consulting works with climate startups from Pre-Seed to Series A and beyond, and with profitable, founder-led climate firms that aren't raising at all. The fastest way to start is a free 30-minute call with Kyle Grabowski.
What happens after you book?
- Pick a time that suits you. The call is free and takes 30 minutes, wherever you are in the Americas.
- Talk it through with Kyle. Your stage, your timeline, and how finance is handled today. You'll get an honest answer on whether a fractional CFO is the right fit.
- Get a plan if it's a fit. You'll get a proposal within 2 business days of the call. Most engagements start with a 3–4 week diagnostic of your finance function, then a three-month trial.
“I really appreciated working together on our first investor-ready financial model. Kyle brought strong structure and discipline to the model while keeping it practical and investor-focused. I especially valued how he pressure-tested the capital strategy and simplified complex areas without losing rigor, it materially strengthened the story for the raise.”
What should I have ready for the call?
- Where your company is: raising soon, or growing on its own cash flow. Investors: what the fund needs, and which portfolio companies need help.
- How finance is handled today: who does the books, and what tools you use.
- Anything with a deadline: a board meeting, an investor update.
No preparation needed beyond that.
Is it the right fit?
Probably not if:
- The company is very early and finance is still simple enough to run without a CFO.
- You already need a full finance team rather than one senior person.
- You're looking for a full-time, in-house CFO.
If we're not the right fit, we'll say so.
