The Role

An entrepreneurial mind working alongside yours.

A Fractional Strategic Intrapreneur is not a consultant, a coach, or a fractional executive. It is a different kind of role built for a different kind of problem.

A Fractional Strategic Intrapreneur.

An entrepreneurial growth resource working inside an established business, alongside its owner or CEO. The role is to find overlooked opportunities, develop the strategies to pursue them, and help turn them into new sources of revenue.

The owner runs the business. I help develop its next opportunities. I work directly with the owner and collaborate with existing employees, partners and outside specialists when needed. I do not manage departments or take on direct reports.

What the role is

  • An entrepreneurial thinking partner for the owner
  • Someone who identifies overlooked opportunities
  • Someone who brings in the right outside partners when they fit
  • Someone who funds and operates the initiatives I develop
  • A commercial collaborator with aligned upside
  • Someone who works alongside the existing team without disrupting it

What the role is not

  • A replacement CEO or COO
  • A fractional CMO or sales manager
  • A business coach or advisor
  • A consultant who identifies opportunities and hands them back to you
  • A department manager with direct reports
  • Someone who needs you to hire or build to execute

How the engagement works in practice.

01

Understand the business

I start by getting a clear picture of the business: its customers, relationships, assets, capabilities, revenue streams and existing opportunities. The goal is to find what is already there before looking for anything new.

02

Identify the opportunities

Using the IPP methodology, I identify where the business is leaving value on the table, which relationships could be generating more revenue, and which new opportunities are worth pursuing.

03

Bring in the right partners

Where an outside partnership is the best route, I bring in the right businesses and run the relationship. Where it is not, I develop the opportunity directly with you and your team. Either way, this is not a plan the owner then has to go and build.

04

Fund and operate the initiatives

I fund the initiatives I develop and run them inside the business. The owner does not need to fund the initiatives or add headcount. The capital and execution capacity come with me.

05

Turn opportunities into revenue

New revenue from initiatives that did not exist before. The business keeps running as it always has. The initiatives generate additional revenue on top of it.

Most owners are too close to the business to see everything that is there.

When you are running a business, the daily demands of operations, customers, employees and cash flow leave little time to step back and look at what else is possible. That is not a failure. It is the nature of running a business.

An outside perspective with inside access

I work inside the business, which means I understand the context. But I am not inside the day-to-day, which means I can see what the owner cannot always see.

Entrepreneurial thinking, not operational thinking

Most businesses are very good at running operations. What they often need is someone who thinks about opportunities, not just execution. That is a different kind of thinking.

I fund it. I run it.

I bring the capital and the systems. The business does not need to fund the initiatives or build an execution team. That is already on my side of the table. The shared upside reflects that.
