About Astero Group
Astero Group is a modern fractional CFO firm built for founders who want to make more and keep more of what they earn. We support companies from $2M to $30M in revenue with financial leadership that’s practical, fast, and built for the real world — not stuck in outdated corporate thinking.
What We Believe
Founders shouldn’t have to guess their way through financial decisions. They deserve a CFO partner who simplifies the numbers, protects the business, and helps them move with confidence.
Our philosophy is simple:
- Give founders actionable insights, not jargon.
- Build financial systems that create peace of mind.
- Focus on decisions that actually drive profit and cash.
- Treat the business like a living, evolving organism — not a spreadsheet.
What We Do
Astero Group delivers CFO-level strategy without the complexity of a full-time hire.
Our work spans:
- Profitability improvement
- Cash flow forecasting and protection
- Budgeting and long-range planning
- Operational and financial systems upgrades
- Capital planning and lender conversations
- Leadership support during scale, chaos, or transition
Every engagement focuses on one thing: giving founders the financial engine and discipline they need to grow.
Our Approach
We don’t operate like a traditional accounting firm. Astero Group is built for founders — hands-on operators who are growing real businesses and want a partner who moves as fast as they do.
Our approach blends:
- Clear weekly communication
- Simple decision frameworks
- Repeatable financial systems
- A proactive, not reactive, CFO mindset
Most importantly, we meet founders where they are and help build the business they want next.
Leadership
Astero Group was founded by Jim Miller, a seasoned fractional CFO and entrepreneur who has spent years helping founder-led companies scale with discipline and profitability. Jim leads the strategic direction of the firm and supports select clients while overseeing the development of new tools and financial systems that strengthen the Astero ecosystem.
The Astero Ecosystem
Astero Group is the human side of our financial leadership model. For founders who want a more accessible starting point, we also offer AsteroCFO.ai, our AI-driven CFO solution built to bring CFO-level thinking to earlier-stage companies.
Both sides of our ecosystem share one mission:
To give founders financial control, better decisions, and a business they’re proud to build.
