Companies Yury has worked with

See the Bigger Financial Picture. Plan the Next Move.

Growth creates new opportunities—and new decisions.
  • Where should you invest?

  • Which products or services deserve more resources?

  • How much can you comfortably spend to grow?

  • What will your next stage require financially?

  • Financial reporting that isn't investor- or buyer-ready

With the right financial insight, those decisions become easier to evaluate.

Zabella brings together financial, operational, and system-level information to help you understand how your business is performing today and make informed decisions about where you want to take it next.

The practice is designed for growing companies, generally between 1M and $20M in annual revenue, that are ready to use stronger financial insight as a foundation for their next stage.

Experience

Financial Expertise
With an Operator's
Perspective

Zabella's approach is grounded in experience across manufacturing, technology, systems, and business growth.

Yury spent eight years working within a dessert manufacturing company across sales, mail order, purchasing, and financial analysis before moving into technology consulting.

He later co-founded a technology consulting firm specializing in ERP systems and helped grow the company from 3 to 53 people before selling it in an eight-figure transaction in 2019.

That experience shapes how Zabella approaches fractional CFO work: finance doesn't exist separately from the systems, operations, and decisions that drive a business forward.
