## FAQ

### What does a fractional COO do?
A fractional COO is a part-time operations executive who partners with your leadership team to build scalable systems, streamline workflows, and lead complex initiatives — without the cost of a full-time hire.

### How do I know if my business needs a fractional COO?
If growth is creating more chaos than clarity — missed handoffs, unclear ownership, decisions bottlenecked at the founder — those are signs your operations haven't caught up with your ambition.

### What size companies does Mayer Business Advisory work with?
Companies in the $2M–$50M revenue range — businesses that have outgrown startup mode but aren't yet ready for (or don't need) a full-time COO.

### What's the difference between the Diagnostic and the 90-Day Overhaul?
The Diagnostic is a structured audit that gives you a prioritized roadmap. The 90-Day Overhaul is a hands-on retainer where we execute — building systems, processes, and teams alongside you.

### How is this different from a management consulting firm?
Most consulting firms hand you a deck and move on. We partner closely with your team, lead initiatives end-to-end, and stay until the systems are built and running.
