Your Fractional COO
Running a business shouldn't mean drowning in the details. With Modern Consulting, we act as your Fractional COO—bringing clarity, structure, and momentum.
We start by making sense of your finances, then connect the numbers to your day-to-day operations. From there, we uncover gaps, tighten processes, and put the right systems in place. The result? A business that runs smoothly without you having to live in the weeds—so you can focus on growth, not firefighting.

Frequently Asked Questions
Get clarity on how we can help your business thrive
What exactly is a Fractional COO?
A Fractional COO is a part-time Chief Operating Officer who brings executive-level operational expertise to your business without the full-time cost. We step in to optimize your operations, improve processes, and help you scale efficiently while you focus on what you do best.
How is this different from regular business consulting?
Unlike traditional consultants who provide recommendations and leave, we act as your ongoing operational partner. We implement solutions, monitor results, and adjust strategies in real-time. Think of us as your operations department until you're ready to build one internally.
Do you take on all clients who inquire?
No, we are very selective about our partnerships. We typically onboard only 1 new client per month to ensure we can provide the deep, personalized attention each business deserves. We work best with established trade businesses ready for serious operational transformation.
How quickly can we see results?
Most clients see improvements in cash flow visibility and operational efficiency within 30-60 days. However, sustainable operational changes typically develop over 3-6 months as we implement systems and refine processes based on your business's unique needs.
What makes you specialized for trade businesses?
We understand the unique challenges of service-based trades: seasonal cash flow, inventory management, crew scheduling, equipment costs, and customer lifecycle management. Our strategies are built specifically for businesses like HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and home services.
