Fractional COO · For businesses under $1M
Stop working in your business. Start running it.
You started a business — but somewhere along the way, the business started running you. I help small business owners build the systems, structure, and strategy to finally work on the business instead of being trapped inside it.
If you recognize any of this, you need a COO.
Most small business owners aren't failing because they're not working hard enough. They're failing because no one ever built the business underneath them. Here's what that looks like.
You're doing the work instead of leading the business. The E-Myth warned you about this. It's still happening.
No accountability chart. No clear roles. Everyone comes to you — because there's no system that doesn't require you.
Money comes in and disappears. You're not paying yourself what you should. You don't know why.
You have a vision in your head but no quarterly priorities, no meeting rhythm, no way to know if you're moving forward.
No documented processes. No SOPs. If you stopped showing up, the business would stop too.
You check the bank account to decide if you can spend. There's no system. Every month is a surprise.
Three frameworks. One operating system for your business.
I don't bring a generic consulting playbook. I bring proven frameworks that thousands of small businesses have used to create clarity, accountability, and profit — and I implement them inside your specific business.
Get everyone pulling in the same direction.
EOS gives your business six key components: Vision, People, Data, Issues, Process, and Traction. Together they create a company that runs with clarity and accountability — not chaos.
- Accountability chart & clear roles
- Quarterly rocks & measurable goals
- Weekly meeting rhythm (L10s)
- Scorecards so you always know where you stand
Build a business that works without you.
The E-Myth revealed why most small businesses fail: the owner is a technician who started a job, not an entrepreneur who built a company. The fix is systematizing everything so the business runs on process, not personality.
- Document every repeatable process
- Build systems your team can follow
- Move you from operator to owner
- Create a business that scales
Pay yourself first. Stop wondering where the money went.
Profit First flips the traditional accounting formula. Instead of Sales − Expenses = Profit, it forces Profit first — so you build a financially healthy business by design, not by accident.
- Multi-account cash allocation system
- Guaranteed profit on every deposit
- Owner's pay you can actually count on
- Tax reserves that don't surprise you
A real operator. Not a consultant with a slide deck.
I embed in your business, learn how it actually works, and implement the structures that will let it grow. You get a senior operator in your corner — without the $200K+ salary that comes with one.

Jason Call · CEO, Handyman Marketing Pros · 5.0 stars · 188 reviews
I've lived every framework I teach.
I'm not a business coach who read the books. I'm an operator who implemented them. As COO of Handyman Marketing Pros, I scaled the company past $100K MRR while holding a 35% profit margin — using EOS, E-Myth principles, and Profit First inside a real business, under real pressure.
I know what it looks like when a business is running its owner. I know what it takes to flip that around. I only work with a small number of clients at a time — which means when I'm in, I'm actually in.
This is for you if...
- You're under $1M revenue and feel like the business runs you
- You've heard of EOS, E-Myth, or Profit First and want help implementing
- You're ready to invest in getting out of survival mode
- You want a real operator, not a coach with a framework PDF
- You're open to honest feedback about what's holding you back
- You want someone to do the work for you without your involvement
- You're not open to changing how you operate
- You're looking for a quick fix rather than sustainable systems
- You want a traditional consultant who delivers a report and leaves
Three steps to getting started.
You reach out on LinkedIn
Send a quick message about your business — where you are, where you want to go, what's getting in the way. No forms, no funnels.
We have a 30-minute call
I learn about your business and you get a feel for how I work. No pitch. We both decide if it's the right fit.
We build your operating system
If it's a fit, we start with an operations audit and build from there. You get a real COO without the full-time price tag.
Everything you want to know.
How many hours per week does this involve?
It depends on where you are and what we're building. Typically 5–15 hours per month to start, scaling as needed. You get a senior operator without a full-time headcount.
Do I need to know EOS or Profit First already?
Not at all. I'll introduce the frameworks at the right pace for your business. Some clients have read the books; others are hearing about them for the first time. Either works.
What industries do you work with?
My background is in home services and marketing, but operational chaos looks the same in every industry. If you're a small business under $1M struggling with systems and structure, we should talk.
How is this different from a business coach?
A coach gives you advice. I build the systems. I'm embedded in your business, implementing real operational infrastructure — not just giving you frameworks to figure out yourself.
How many clients do you take on?
A small number at a time — intentionally. This is fractional work, not a coaching program with 50 people in it. When I'm your COO, I'm actually your COO.
What does the first month look like?
We start with a full operations audit — an honest look at what's working, what's broken, and what to fix first. From there we build a prioritized roadmap and get to work.
Time to work on the business.
Send me a message on LinkedIn. Tell me where you are, where you want to be, and what's getting in the way. No pitch. No pressure. Just a real conversation about whether this is the right fit.
