FAQs

General:

A Fractional Chief Operating Officer (COO) is someone who specializes in operations and offers strategic and operational leadership on a part-time basis. Small to mid-sized businesses often hire Fractional COOs when they don’t require or have the resources for a full-time COO.

Usually a Fractional Chief Operating Officer (COO) offers entrepreneurs and business owners advice and coaching, often on an as-needed-basis. What makes me different is I commit to helping you implement the changes to help your business grow. If you are already overwhelmed and busier than you should be, can you implement the changes needed to grow your business?

Streamline your operations and grow your business anywhere in Canada. Fractional COO services are available in person in Calgary, and virtually throughout the rest of Canada. In person meetings and services can be provided at an additional cost.

Our services can be offered virtually. If you are located in the US, that is no problem. Many of my clients are in the US.

Every business, no matter what industry, has at least 5 components. Marketing, Sales, Financial, Processes and People. We work on the parts of your business that are your problem areas so you can experience efficiency, growth and reduce stress.

I have 25+ years of experience in the corporate, non profit and legal sectors. I ran a successful law firm for 5 years that experienced YoY growth. I recently read this quote, which explains me::

“What I have gradually learned is that it is not your strengths, but your combination of strengths that sets you apart. It is the fact that writing and marketing are mutually reinforcing—and that I enjoy both—that leads to great results.” – James Clear

Every entrepreneur has different problems, wants and goals. You have to be ready to make changes and give up some control to start to see things happen. Once you are able to do that, results can happen quickly. Your time can be freed up, your stress can reduce and your business can start to grow with efficient processes.

With commitment and letting your Fractional COO do what they are hired to do, you can see personal benefits immediately. Financial benefits can start to show within 1-2 months depending what is being done for you.

Most services are a minimum commitment of 3 months, transitioning to monthly after that. You can cancel services at any time, but you probably wouldn’t want to! There are some offerings that may be a shorter term project or longer term commitment, depending on your goals.

We offer custom services to meet your goals. Please reach out to discuss further.
