What a fractional COO does
A fractional COO is an experienced operations leader who works with your business part-time, on your terms. Instead of the cost of a full-time executive, you get senior-level help building systems, managing your team, and turning strategy into day-to-day execution. We step in as true partner so you can step back from the weeds and focus on growth.

Fractional COO FAQs
-
There are several reasons to bring on a Fractional COO, but some of the top reasons we see are:
If you feel like your tools and systems aren’t working for you
Your team organization or hiring procedures feel unstructured
You want to help your business run more efficiently
To help you reach your growth goals
-
We can develop a scope of work that is customized to fit your needs and budget. In most cases, your Fractional COO will begin with more hours in the first few months to develop structure and strategy and then reduce hours from there, to continue supporting as needed. These hours may range from 10 hrs a month all the way up to 20 hours a week, depending on what stage your business is at.
-
This varies from business to business. Often clients find that they need more COO hours up front and then can actually wean off as time goes on. When your business reaches a point where systems are streamlined, employees are executing efficiently, and all of your tools and systems are working for you, you could potentially reduce hours. That being said, if you plan to continue expanding your business, then it would make sense to bring on a full time COO.
