What is a Fractional Chief Operating Officer?
A Fractional Chief Operating Officer is a part-time contractor that works 1-4 hours a day – no benefits or long-term contracts. They will bring their depth of experience and efficiency to helping you solve your most pressing business issues.
Fractional COOs are ideal for businesses in the $1M – $20M revenue range that are either ready to scale to the next level, have hit a plateau or are declining. And, they may not have funds, in-house expertise, or hiring time to bring on a full-time world-class COO.
You will see the impact of an experienced fractional COO in less than a week of working with them.
