Hollywood sits between Fort Lauderdale and Miami in Broward County, with a beachfront Broadwalk and a historic downtown along Hollywood Boulevard. The city is close to Port Everglades and Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport, so tourism, cruise traffic and logistics shape local demand. Hotels, restaurants, marine services, real estate firms, medical practices and a large community of independent contractors and service businesses make up much of the economy.
Hospitality and restaurant businesses in Hollywood need tight payroll, tip and sales tax management, plus forecasts that absorb seasonal visitor swings. Marine and logistics firms track job costs and receivables, while real estate and property businesses need clean records by property. PSG maintains monthly books and reporting, and our fractional CFOs help owners plan cash, control costs and scale with confidence.
Florida has no state individual income tax, but C corporations pay a state corporate income tax, and sales tax applies statewide with county surtaxes on top. Businesses with employees register for state reemployment tax and track sales by county.
General information only, not tax advice. Rules change, so confirm specifics with a tax professional.
Yes. We work with Hollywood companies through a dedicated team that is entirely US based, combining Big Four accounting experience with years of operating experience across industries. Your team closes the books on a regular schedule, works inside the accounting tools you already use and looks at your numbers the way an operator would, not just a bookkeeper.
Typically bank and card reconciliations, accounts payable and receivable, payroll support, Florida sales tax tracking and monthly financial statements you can act on. Growing companies can add fractional CFO support for forecasting, budgeting and cash planning.
Usually when decisions start to outgrow the books: raising capital or bank financing, opening a new location, making key hires, tightening margins or preparing for a future sale. A fractional CFO adds forecasting and strategic guidance without the cost of a full time executive.
We also work with businesses in Hallandale Beach, Aventura, Pembroke Pines, Miramar and North Miami Beach.

“If you want to sleep better at night, hire Phoenix Strategy Group.”

“PSG and David Metzler structured an extraordinary M&A deal during a very chaotic period in our business, and I couldn't be more pleased with our partnership.”

“PSG saved my dream. They helped us get our financials in order and renegotiate our lending agreements, pulling us through a tough financial crunch.”

“As our fractional CFO, they accomplished more in six months than our last two full-time CFOs combined. If you're looking for unparalleled financial strategy and integration, hiring PSG is one of the best decisions you can make.”

“Hire PSG if you want to make your life easier and have accurate data.”

“As a home service business owner, understanding complex financials and Unit Economics always seemed overwhelming—until we started working with Phoenix Strategy Group.”

Hi! I'm Sam, a financial leader who's managed operations from startups to $40M enterprises.
I've led licensing deals with Disney, Marvel, and Viacom, while overseeing products across 35,000 retail stores. Through SHK Financial, I've helped 15+ high-growth companies succeed, including recovering $2M in receivables for a major client and rebuilding a $10M ARR company's accounting system in 6 months. Now, as Chief Accounting Officer at PSG, I oversee 50+ revenue streams and help launch many successful 8-figure businesses.
My journey started uniquely - while studying finance at Fresno State, I taught both chess and accounting to students, teaching me that success in finance, like in chess, is all about strategic thinking and seeing several moves ahead.
