Our company turned to Fred when we were in a very rapid growth trajectory and needed a seasoned CFO but were not able to bring someone of his caliber in full-time.
We have come to lean on Fred for his ability to help us navigate through the challenges of growing a business, helping us refine strategy and business plans, also bringing valuable insights into staffing, organizations, people, and budgets.
There were many times Fred counseled us on matters beyond financial and we have come to depend on him for his astute insights and sound advice.
We are fortunate to have Fred consulting us with us for the past 2 ½ years.

Fred is the best CFO I have worked with by far in the 13 businesses I have owned and the 7 CFO’s I have worked with.
“You cannot do better than having Fred Binstock on your team if you are an early stage company. I cannot recommend him strongly enough. He can help any early stage company in achieving their goals
Fred Binstock became the CFO of Franklin & Seidelmann in 2004, in the infancy of our company. We had great expectations and had achieved early success, but were in need of financial and corporate organization. Fred took our early stage company and assisted in the transition to becoming a company capable of true growth. Fred assisted in the transitioning of Franklin & Seidelman to Radisphere National Radiology, which became the largest subspecialty, hospital based practice of radiology in the country, providing subspecialty expertise to hospitals from coast to coast.”

Fred is easy to work with and predictable, with a passion for detail and organization. He’s able to work well with bottom-line focused people who aren’t as swayed by the next technology craze as much as the metric performance during the prior four quarters.
I was fortunate to partner with Fred (he was CFO and I was COO) for almost 5 years, and found him to be a true professional in his field. He was able to navigate the (‘inherited’, financially failing) original company to a new, profitable entity.
He’s truly a very strong professional that I would highly recommend!
I know that I can count on Fred to get important projects completed and as a trusted and experienced adviser.
Fred has been the right person at the right time for Wireless Environment. We never had a CFO and our growth had us at the in-between stage where we needed a CFO but could not justify full time. He obtained an incentive package for our move completely on his own. He built a very effective spreadsheet to forecast our cash needs.
“Fred worked with me during an unpredictable, issue-laden and messy acquisition process. His financial acumen was strong and much needed – as the situation required an extreme amount of discipline and creativity to pull off. He works well under pressure and knows how to navigate challenging business transactions.”
