How founders bring me in.

Every engagement starts with a conversation. Most start narrow — one clear problem — and expand as trust builds. All are structured so you can end them cleanly.

01

Fractional COO

Ongoing operating leadership

Strategic and operational leadership without hiring a full-time executive. I sit next to you as the operating leader — running the cadence, owning the numbers, coaching the team, and giving you your calendar back.

What you leave with
  • ◆Weekly operating rhythm the whole team runs on
  • ◆A financial and KPI model the board actually trusts
  • ◆Founder pulled out of day-to-day approvals
  • ◆A functional leadership team, not just a set of managers
Best fit

Founders at $2M–$25M ARR who are becoming the bottleneck.

02

Growth Readiness Assessment

Fixed 30-day engagement

A structured operational audit across GTM, delivery, finance, and people. You leave with the three or four highest-impact levers, a sequenced plan, and clarity on what to fix, hire, or stop doing.

What you leave with
  • ◆Full operating diagnostic across 8 functions
  • ◆Prioritized 12-month operating roadmap
  • ◆Risk register for growth, hiring, and cash
  • ◆Optional implementation follow-on
Best fit

Companies preparing to raise, hire senior leaders, or double revenue.

03

Exit Readiness

6–12 months to LOI

Prepare the company buyers actually pay a premium for. Clean numbers, documented operations, a defensible growth story, and a team that doesn't fall apart during diligence.

What you leave with
  • ◆Diligence-ready financials and KPIs
  • ◆Documented operating playbooks and contracts
  • ◆Buyer-facing narrative and data room
  • ◆Founder coached through IOI, LOI, and diligence
Best fit

Founders 12–24 months from a strategic sale or recap.

04

Post-Merger Integration

First 100 days and beyond

The rare capability most fractional COOs don't have. Land the deal thesis, integrate two operating models, retain the customers and the people, and stop value leakage.

What you leave with
  • ◆Day-1 and Day-100 integration plan
  • ◆Combined operating cadence and reporting
  • ◆Customer, product, and team retention plan
  • ◆Synergy tracking against the deal model
Best fit

PE-backed platforms and strategics who just closed.

Special Projects

Focused work, delivered in weeks.

When you don't need a fractional COO — you need a specific problem solved by someone who has done it before. Typically 4–8 week engagements, fixed scope, fixed fee.
