Ready to step out of the day-to-day without your business falling apart?

You’ve built something incredible - and it’s growing fast (or you're so ready for it to). Congratulations!

But if that growth is only possible through hustle and heroics...

If every new client, team member, and offer adds new layers of complexity...

If systems are duct-taped together just well enough to function, but not well enough to scale....

And if instead of stepping up further into visionary leadership, you’re being pulled down deeper into the weeds...

Then at this stage, you don’t simply need more hours or another set of hands.

You need a strategic operational partner who thinks like an owner, leads like a peer, and knows how to build the structure for scalable growth without adding unnecessary complexity, chaos, or noise.

Fractional CSOO Services With Crista Grasso

What It Looks Like to Work Together

Placeholder Image

This isn’t about hiring someone to manage your inbox or make daily updates to your project management tool.

It’s about having a strategic operational leader by your side who knows how to lead, optimize, and scale a business like yours - one that delivers transformation and results through highly valuable services.

When we work together, I bring structure to the chaos and stability to the growth. We tighten the connection between your vision, your team, and your delivery.

You get to step out of the weeds without sacrificing quality, momentum, or client results.


3 Options, Same Transformational Results:

1. Whether I’m stepping in as your Fractional CSOO...

2. Or I'm training and mentoring your Ops Leaders...

3. Or I'm doing a blend of both (my favorite way to work together)...

You can expect:

  • A clear plan to remove the dependency on you 

  • Leadership across planning, systems, and team

  • A thought partner who can anticipate needs, not just react to them

  • A scalable operating foundation rooted in my Lean Scaling System™

By week two, you’ll feel the shift.

By week eight, you’ll wonder how you ever ran things without this kind of strategic-level support.

And by month 6?  Your business will run and scale completely differently and without being dependent on you.

See What This Can Look Like for You

I’m not here to simply take things off your plate - I’m here to help you build a business that runs and grows without you being central to every part of it.

Hear what one of my incredible clients had to share about her experience
(and how amazing is this video she created completely unprompted?!?):

 

Will we be a good fit together?

If you're looking for a stuffy corporate type who loves complex and prescriptive solutions, we won't be a good fit…  

However, if you are looking for someone who feels like a true partner in your business, who "gets you" and your vision, and who is just as committed to making your vision and goals a reality as you are, with some laughs along the way, then let's chat! 

I'm not your typical COO. In fact, I don't even call myself a COO (although a lot of my clients do).

That means you won't get typical results… because you deserve so much more than "typical".

So what am I?

Enter your Chief Strategy and Operating Officer, CSOO.

A CSOO blends the operational expertise and leadership of a COO with the strategic insights and scaling expertise of a CSO.

That means I specialize in strategically leveraging operations to sustainably scale your business as the right-hand or advisor to the founder(s).

I'm a bit of a unicorn, and I bet you are too.

What Makes This Experience Different

Instead of managing the chaos, I help you completely eliminate it.

When we partner together, you get an entire ecosystem for scaling that focuses on scalable growth, operational excellence, and sustainable success.

Beyond getting a Fractional CSOO, you also get the Lean Scaling System™ which I created specifically for businesses like yours.

Our engagement starts with identifying and focusing on the primary area that will provide the biggest leverage for your business based on your current challenges and goals:

  • Scalable Growth: optimizing and closing gaps in how you attract, nurture, and convert leads and deliver an exceptional client experience that results in increased retention and referrals

  • Sustainable Success: restructuring your team and planning cadences to stay focused on high-value, vision-aligned work in a way that supports sustainable growth, elevates the founder out of the day-to-day, and doesn't burn out the team

  • Operational Excellence: simplifying, streamlining, systematizing, and stabilizing (yes, that's a lot of S's!) how you run and grow your business to increase productivity, profitability, and results without having to add unnecessary resources
We then move into the next area, then the next. It is a continuous loop and each one unlocks new levels of success and scale.

Sound like exactly what you're look for?

Curious and want to explore if we'll be a good fit together?

Due to the high touch nature of each CSOO engagement, I only take on 2-4 fractional clients at one time.
