Founder, and Executive Coach at "Your Choice Coach," speaks with Valerie Hayes. She is a fractional COO and is on a mission to help small businesses beat the odds, push through those roadblocks, and become an industry leader.
Three Key Points
If you don't have the infrastructure in place to support that increase in sales and increase in fulfillment needs, then it's not going to work and so Valerie sort of noticed over and over again that really good people were struggling with this problem.
Valerie talks about the three kinds of categories of people that can help your business, all of which are great.
Valerie runs several multimillion-dollar companies as a part-time CEO in 10 hours a week.
Episode Highlights
Valerie’s background is that she is a business owner, human resources, professional and fortune 500 company’s coach and mentor for higher achievers that enables them to really be a collaborative approach in every aspect of their business.
Bringing in a fractional CEO is like buying speed because the CEO knows exactly what the problem is, can spot it immediately, find a solution and move the business forward to that $1,000,000 mark and move it much faster with less resistance and pushback.
If you don't have the time, or maybe the actual skill set or experience level to implement it, it can be a frustrating situation. In that case a fractional CFO comes in and works in the business supporting you and your team.
When you are hiring a Chief Financial Officer or a Chief Operating Officer, you should never hire someone who is afraid to tell you or that someone something is a bad idea.
