I've sat in the seat I'm asking you to trust me with.
I'm Tyler Briggs. For more than a decade I've been the finance leader inside the kind of companies private equity builds: scaling revenue, integrating acquisitions, and answering to boards and sponsors. Growth by the Numbers is how I bring that operator experience to founders who can't yet justify a full-time CFO but can't afford to fly blind.
Tyler Briggs
Founder, President & CFO
From the capital side of the table to the operator's chair.
I started on the capital side: REIT accounting, fund structuring, and underwriting at a family office and as the founder of my own advisory practice. I learned how investors think about risk, return, and what actually makes a business worth buying.
Then I crossed over to operations. At Panoramic Health, an Audax-backed healthcare platform, I integrated acquisitions in a high-velocity roll-up. At Semper Fi Heating & Cooling, a Pulte Capital-backed home-services company, I served as President & CFO and helped scale the business from roughly $30M to over $100M in three years.
That combination, investor discipline and operator scar tissue, is rare. Most fractional CFOs have done one or the other. I built Growth by the Numbers to give growing companies access to both, without the seven-figure cost of hiring it full-time.
The companies that shaped the playbook.
Across my career I've led more than $1B in acquisitions and over $5B in exits. Each of these taught me something I now bring to your business, from PE-grade reporting to the post-close integration where deals are won or lost.
