Duties can include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Deploying new resources or organizational change initiatives<\/li><li>Developing KPIs and SOPs<\/li><li>Evaluating new strategic directions<\/li><li>Reviewing (or creating) reports to find operational or financial opportunities<\/li><\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/smallbusinessgrows.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/leadership-edited-scaled.jpeg\" alt=\"Senior leadership of the business team indicates the direction of the movement towards the goal.

Small, growing companies often hire less-experienced full timers with plans to teach and develop those individuals but then quickly realize they don&#8217;t have the resources (time) to do so. This violates the most important responsibility of a business owner, setting your employees up for success.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/smallbusinessgrows.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/tightened-budget-1024x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"Budget friendly depicted by a piggy bank rendering with a tightened belt.\" class=\"wp-image-351\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\">Budget Friendly<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Avoid the overhead of expanded payroll and hefty benefits packages needed to recruit and retain talented individuals. Fractional COO services can save 75% versus the cost of bringing an experienced individual on full time. Each week you may need someone for a few hours or a few days and we develop each arrangement to fit the requirements of your business.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/smallbusinessgrows.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/bright-light-edited.png\" alt=\"Bright light bulb drawing provides a fresh outlook.\" class=\"wp-image-353\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\">Fresh Outlook<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>How many times has someone on your team said &#8220;we&#8217;ve always done it this way&#8221;? This statement has become all too common and holds many businesses back. When you are working in the details of the business every day, it is natural to get drawn in and lose sight of the view from the summit you are trying to reach. Bring fresh air and new insight to your thought process with an outside perspective.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Fractional COO services have a minimum contract length of 6 months. This is due to the importance of a COO having a strong rapport with the team and understanding all functions of the business to best achieve the synergy needed for success. However, clients typically sign on for 12 months or longer to get the most out of the investment. In all arrangements the needs of the business are analyzed through a couple of Google Meet discussions before any agreements are drafted to make sure that we can provide the best support for you and your business.
