A Fractional CFO practice built on 40 years of doing the work — from start-up to scale, from turnaround to nine-figure exit.

RMM Accounting was founded in 2009 by Randy Miller as a Fractional CFO practice serving privately held and family-owned businesses across Southern California. The premise was straightforward: business owners at the $10 million to $500 million revenue stage need CFO-level financial leadership, but the cost and commitment of a full-time CFO doesn't always fit. RMM Accounting fills that gap — bringing senior financial expertise to bear on a flexible, engagement-specific basis.

Fifteen-plus years and dozens of clients later, that premise has held. The practice works because of one thing: Randy has been in the situations his clients are facing. Not as an observer — as the CFO in the room.

Randy Miller — Founder & Fractional CFO
Randy began his financial career in 1980 as a Senior Accountant at Wrather Corporation, a Beverly Hills-based conglomerate spanning hotels, oil and gas, and entertainment. Over the following four decades, he served as CFO and senior financial officer for companies ranging from $15 million to over $1 billion in revenues — across mortgage banking, retail, internet services, business services, light manufacturing, and entertainment.

The through-line across Randy's career is privately held businesses at inflection points: the first credit facility, the rapid growth, the turnaround, the bankruptcy, the sale. He has led companies through Chapter 11 proceedings, built investor reporting for private equity funds, coordinated due diligence for complex M&A transactions, and provided forensic accounting support in litigation and bankruptcy cases resulting in over $120 million in judgments.

In 2009, Randy founded RMM Accounting to bring that experience to business owners as an outside resource — providing CFO-level leadership without the full-time cost, and without the limits of a single-industry perspective.
Randy holds a Bachelor of Science in Business and Accounting from the University of Southern California. He lives in the San Fernando Valley with his wife and has two sons. Outside of work, he is a Masters swimmer and an avid golfer.

Industries served
 

What makes RMM Accounting different
Most fractional CFOs come from a single industry or a narrow functional background. Randy's career spans industries, company stages, and financial situations — from start-up to billion-dollar operation, from rapid growth to Chapter 11, from first audit to nine-figure sale. That breadth produces something no single-company career can: pattern recognition. The ability to see a situation clearly because you've seen it before, in a different industry, at a different scale.
The other difference is depth of M&A experience. Randy has been the financial quarterback in complex transactions — coordinating investment bankers, M&A attorneys, CPAs, and buyer due diligence teams simultaneously. He has stepped into transactions mid-stream, taken over from departed CFOs under deadline, and stayed through post-close transitions to make sure the handoff was complete. That experience is rare in a fractional context, and it is the reason exit-planning and transaction support is a core RMM Accounting specialty.
