You’re great at running the work. The business of running the business is what’s costing you.
The Small Business Consulting Suite is a hands-on retainer for owner-operators who’ve outgrown the chaos but aren’t ready for a fractional COO. We do the work. You stay in the seat that matters.
Application-only · 6–8 active engagements at a time
If three of these are true, we should probably talk.
SBCS is built for owner-operators stuck between “scrappy” and “scaled.”
The owner is the operations
If you take a week off, three things break. Documentation lives in your head. Hires can do tasks but not own outcomes.
The numbers feel fuzzy
You know your top line. You don’t really know your unit economics. Cash flow surprises you more than once a quarter.
The team isn’t compounding
You hire when something breaks. Onboarding takes months. People stay competent but never quite level up.
You’re profitable but stuck
Revenue is real ($500K–$5M typical) but growth has plateaued. You suspect the constraint is ops, not sales.
What you actually need isn’t a course or a coach.
You don’t need another book about Lean. You don’t need a $497 SOP template pack you’ll never finish. You don’t need a $400/hour business coach who’s never operated.
You need someone in the trenches with you for 90–180 days who can build the back-office, hire the next two roles, and document the operations so the business runs without you in the seat every day.
How the Suite works
Month 1 — Diagnostic. We map the org, the processes, the financials, the team. We surface the 3–5 constraints actually keeping you stuck. You walk away with a 90-day operating plan even if you don’t continue.
Months 2–3 — Build. SOPs documented. Hiring plans drafted. Financial dashboard live. Team rituals installed. You start spending less time in the day-to-day.
Months 4–6 — Hand off. The systems we built run themselves. Your next two hires are productive in week three, not month three. You’re back to being an owner, not an operator.
Pricing is transparent.
Range depends on scope, team size, and engagement length. Most clients run 6 months minimum.
If your gut said yes to most of this, the next step is a 5-minute application.
We’ll review it within 1 business day. If we’re a fit, we’ll send a calendar link for a 30-minute Suite Strategy Call. If we’re not, we’ll tell you why and point you somewhere useful.
