What each option covers
Business management consulting
Find the operating opportunities. Choose the support to put them into practice.
Profit Improvement Implementation
A focused improvement may take one month; multiple connected changes may require up to four. The client-specific implementation plan determines the duration and total investment. Payments follow the agreed monthly engagement, rather than the full project cost being paid upfront. Scope, milestones, deliverables and the exact price are agreed before work begins. This consulting fee is separate from website or app setup.
Ongoing Operations Advisory
Owner-focused advice and decision support, typically two to four hours of direct engagement per week. Price reflects agreed time and scope. This is advisory, not management of your employees.
Part-time Operations Strategy & Execution Partner
Remote, part-time operational leadership—a fractional Chief Operating Officer (COO)—to drive agreed priorities, improve and standardize processes, and help you recover time. Price reflects responsibilities, availability and breadth of initiatives. Authority and scope are agreed first.
Business process mapping is part of the assessment or another scoped engagement; no independent fee is published. Explore consulting services →
