Fractional COO
Scalable Leadership for Small Teams
Overview
You’ve got the vision. The product. The clients. But you’re spending more time putting out fires than planning for growth—and the idea of hiring a full-time operations leader feels overwhelming or out of reach.
That’s where our Fractional COO service comes in.
We step in as your high-leverage operator: part strategic guide, part systems builder, part accountability partner. Whether you’re a solo operator who needs structure, or a team of 20 preparing to scale, we offer three levels of support that flex with your size, complexity, and speed of growth.
Choose the Right Tier for Your Business
Tier 1: Strategic Guidance
Foundational structure and strategy for solo operators or lean teams
What’s Included:
Monthly refresh of your KPI dashboard
1-hour strategy call to review wins, blocks, and action steps
Ongoing email + async support throughout the month
Up to 2 “micro-projects” per month—examples:
Creating a delegation doc
Reviewing vendor proposals
Drafting a recurring task checklist
Excludes: Direct staff coaching, or major project execution
Best For:
Solo operators or teams under 5 who need strategic rhythm and accountability without extra meetings or management layers.
Tier 2: Ops Execution
Execution-level support for teams in growth mode
What’s Included:
Ownership and maintenance of your KPI dashboard
Facilitation of your quarterly OKR cycle
Weekly ops meeting facilitation + backlog triage
Coaching for department leads (e.g., marketing, fulfillment, support)
Vendor liaison and communication support
Excludes: Work over 12 hrs/month (billed separately)
Best For:
Small-but-growing teams who want consistent execution support and systems guidance without the payroll burden of a full-time hire.
Tier 3: Embedded Leadership
Hands-on ops leadership without the full-time salary
What’s Included:
20–40 hours/month of mixed remote + on-site support
Ownership of your operational roadmap + SOP documentation
Alignment of cross-departmental processes
Input on departmental budgeting, vendor strategy, and hiring
1–2 on-site days per month for team immersion, training, or planning
Excludes: CFO-level finance responsibilities and HR/legal compliance
Best For:
Businesses with 10+ employees and scaling operations who want experienced, embedded leadership—but aren’t ready for a full-time COO.
Is This for You?
Our Fractional COO service is built for:
• Founders wearing too many hats
• Businesses moving from reactive to proactive ops
• Teams with vision but no bandwidth to systematize execution
