Fractional Chief of Staff Offerings
Starter Offer
30-Day Alignment Diagnostic
Discover where your business stands — and what it needs next.
The Starter Offer is designed for founders, CEOs, and leadership teams who know something feels off but can’t quite put their finger on it.
Over 30 days, we assess your business across six critical focus areas — Vision, Team & Culture, Operational Excellence, Rhythm of Business, Opportunities & Risks, and Business Health — then deliver a full Strategic Diagnostic Report with actionable recommendations.
Common Fit Examples:
A founder scaling quickly but feeling overwhelmed by operational gaps.
A service firm struggling with team accountability and unclear priorities.
A leadership team preparing for a capital raise needing to tighten operations before pitching.
Real Situations:
Helped a boutique marketing agency identify missed revenue opportunities hidden in inconsistent client processes.
Diagnosed a tech startup’s misalignment between CEO and COO that was quietly stalling product development.
Worked with a consulting firm that had solid sales but lacked internal reporting — creating dangerous blind spots.
Why It Matters:
Sometimes you don't need another idea — you need an honest, strategic diagnosis so you can focus your energy where it matters most.
Clarity Package
Essentials for Growth
Build the foundation your future depends on.
The Clarity Package is for businesses moving from early chaos into intentional growth — where structure, clarity, and operating rhythm aren't just nice-to-haves anymore, they're necessary.
We partner with you to align your strategy, structure your operations, clean up communication flow, and build essential reporting to keep your business on course.
Common Fit Examples:
A founder managing a small but growing team with no clear role definitions.
A firm that’s winning clients but behind the scenes is struggling with inefficiencies.
A CEO who can’t take a real vacation because everything still depends on them.
Real Situations:
Partnered with a leadership consulting firm to define team roles and build a weekly rhythm that freed the founder to focus on growth.
Helped a fast-growing real estate services firm install simple project management tools and operational KPIs, cutting delays by 40%.
Why It Matters:
Without operational clarity, growth amplifies chaos. This package ensures you scale with stability — not just size.
Brilliance Package
Growth Accelerator
Turn momentum into measurable, sustainable results.
The Brilliance Package is for companies on the edge of major growth but still lacking the internal "muscle" to execute consistently at scale.
We work hands-on with you to operationalize big goals into real-world action — aligning teams, tightening execution, optimizing leadership performance, and preparing you for the next stage of expansion.
Common Fit Examples:
A SaaS company growing fast but struggling with cross-team communication bottlenecks.
A founder feeling decision fatigue because they are still the bottleneck for every move.
A boutique firm needing to sharpen internal leadership before expanding into new markets.
Real Situations:
Helped a finance advisory firm design a new leadership structure that doubled decision-making speed and client capacity within six months.
Partnered with a tech-enabled service company to streamline hiring, onboarding, and training, saving 150+ hours annually.
Why It Matters:
You can’t scale successfully on talent and vision alone — you need operational excellence supporting every move.
Luminary Package
Scale and Amplify
Step fully into your highest role — and build a company that thrives without you.
The Luminary Package is for founders and executives preparing for major transitions — scaling aggressively, prepping for acquisition, or stepping back from day-to-day operations.
We embed deep operational leadership into your company, helping you create scalable systems, elevate your leadership team, and increase enterprise value well beyond you as an individual.
Common Fit Examples:
A founder ready to expand to multiple locations or regions.
An executive preparing for a future exit or private equity investment.
A CEO realizing the business has outgrown informal systems and needs to professionalize.
Real Situations:
Worked with a regional services firm preparing for private equity interest to install a leadership operating system and formalize reporting, dramatically increasing valuation.
Helped an e-commerce founder step fully into a visionary role by building a second-in-command leadership layer that ran day-to-day operations.
Why It Matters:
Great companies outgrow their founders' shadow. This package ensures you scale your business — and your legacy — with intention.
Business Intelligence
Database & Reporting Solutions
Your business runs on information—how you capture it, organize it, and act on it matters. Our customized database solutions are designed to help you see what’s working, identify what’s not, and make faster, smarter decisions across your organization.
We work behind the scenes to structure and centralize your critical data—transforming scattered spreadsheets and inconsistent workflows into a clean, scalable, and actionable system. Whether you're tracking client activity, project delivery, revenue metrics, or team performance, we build tailored systems that work for your business—not the other way around.
What we deliver:
A custom-built database to fit your business needs
Clean, centralized data for easier reporting and decision-making
Automated KPI dashboards to help you track progress and performance
Visual reporting tools that empower your team to stay aligned and informed
These solutions lay the foundation for growth, reduce chaos, and free up time—so your team can focus on delivering, not digging.
Business Intelligence packages are available by consultation and offered at a fixed project rate, with optional ongoing database maintenance available at a preferred rate.
