Emerge, scale, and advance without breaking the budget.
Allowing you and your team to do more of your most important work with less strain and stress.
CEOs of growing businesses often find themselves pulled in too many directions and no one to hand things off to... until now.
Almost any task can be outsourced, especially ones taking up your time or beyond your skillset. Delegate non-essential tasks to keep your vision momentum in the places it matters most.
Sometimes a CEO will prefer a partner for co-leadership to create balance and complement their skills, style, and expertise. An Outsourced COO is an objective approach to this need and avoids potential interest conflict.
Even with a day-to-day operations focus, your COO can lead specific initiatives for larger organizational shifts through aligned strategies, critical thinking, delegation and effective communication.
A typical COO role can oversee logistics, performance, and processes on a daily basis to best integrate the "how" details into your operations based on the CEO's big picture (aka the "what") goals.
Review efforts & outputs to optimize workflows and improve productivity.
Understand and analyze all departments and company mission to identify and plan for areas of opportunity.
Strong and unique leadership style representing all teams' interest with empathy, responsibility, and self-awareness.
Increase sales, reduce costs, monitor progress updates, identify and help resolve corrective areas that arise.
Develop, communicate, and implement systems and processes for profitability and performance.
Strong analytical skills with ability to creatively approach ideas, problems and opportunities.
Masterful organization of details and operations with ability to clearly communicate to and on behalf of many parties.
Unique ability to take big picture vision and integrate it into daily tasks and break down complex ideas into easy to understand, action oriented conversations and decisions.
Maintain focus of company brand plans and goals while facilitating a comfortable environment that allows all voices to be heard, validated, and supported.

Here are a handful of industries that have benefitted from working with Katie to grow, develop, and sustain their businesses:
Don't see your industry? Not to worry! The principles, practices, and methods have been used to successfully support new business, 7-figure brands, solopreneurs, non-profit and other organizations just like yours.
I'm here to support wherever you need me! In the event you're not sure exactly where you need me most, here's an example overview of where my working role can begin:
Clarity on how to position yourself to execute the best version of your role so that you're able to continue putting your time toward things that most excite you. Transforming your overwhelming "needs" list into an action-oriented business development plan.
Develop breathing room with options for expanding your role and earning back some mental & emotional energy by shifting necessary tasks off your plate and identifying additional support and role opportunities.
Stabilization of existing business infrastructures to improve company wellbeing for brand sustainability and growth goals. Catching up on back-end backlog and positioning your teams' talents with renewed clarity, purpose, and capacity.
There are two ways to handle this. The first is to start with a conservative hours estimation, knowing you can add on additional time needed at your retainer hourly rate. Or, choose a more comfortable range with the benefit of rolling over 5% of unused hours to the following quarter and either way making any retainer adjustments once you have a better idea of your ideal hours quota.
Absolutely and with pleasure! My home office is located in Loveland, OH (just north of Cincinnati). If you're local and would find it beneficial for me to join you in-person at any time, an additional 1 hour of your retainer bank will be considered fulfilled each occasion I'm personally in office. For remote companies, we keep travel as simple as possible using a standard state-side travel fee for airfare, accommodations, & per diem.
All clients of The Outsourced COO will have access to a private communication portal that houses important service documents including a standard cancel request form that you can submit anytime under the guidelines of your specific retainer package requiring 30, 45, or 60 days notice for cancelation.
Yes! If you're considering the benefits of a COO and have the beginnings of a tasks list or backlog needing assistance we can review those details together rather than this being one more thing staring back at you from an always growing to-do list. I'm more than happy to help identify what items are within my scope of practice to get you started in the process of outsourcing your operations.
The no-risk guarantee means that once we've agreed The Outsourced COO is the right fit for your company, services will be active for two weeks before your contract and quarterly agreement go into effect. At the end of those two weeks, if for any reason, you decide not to move forward with The Outsourced COO you'll pay only for the hours received without any cancelation penalty. A standard $500 activation payment is required of all new clients, and will be applied toward your first invoice at the conclusion of those two weeks.
Unused hours, up to 5% of your retainer, will automatically roll over for one additional quarter, before those hours are forfeited. For Lite plan users, this is 3 hours per quarter. For Classic plan users, this is 5 hours per quarter. For Premium plan users, up to 10 hours may be rolled over, automatically, per quarter. Reduction requests to your retainer may be made anytime at least 14 days prior to quarter end, to be in effect the following quarter. All requests can be easily managed within your private client communication portal.
