    Frequently asked questions

    How is a fractional COO different from an operations consultant?

    A consultant audits and recommends. A fractional COO owns the outcomes. We embed in your leadership team, run the weekly operating rhythm, and are accountable for KPIs — not just deliverables.

    What size businesses do you work with?

    Our retainer clients range from six-figure founders ($100K+ ARR) up to $10M ARR with teams of 1 to 25. Six-figure founders often need the most help — they've proven the offer but need infrastructure to scale. For very lean stages, the Operations Diagnostic or AI & Automation Setup is often the right entry point.

    How quickly do clients see results?

    Most clients have a clear operating rhythm and KPI dashboard within 30 days. Bigger structural changes (hiring, finance ops, repackaging offers) typically land in months 2–4.

    Do you specialize in ADHD or neurodivergent founders?

    Yes. Our systems are built for visionary and ADHD brains — externalized memory, decision scaffolding, light-touch tooling, and rhythms that survive low-focus weeks. Neurotypical founders benefit too, but the design center is ADHD.

    What's the minimum commitment?

    The Operations Partnership has a three-month minimum. For the Embedded COO Collective, six months is recommended but not required. The first 30 days are install; the next 60 are where the rhythm compounds.
