If you could remove one obstacle to grow your business, what would it be?
Many of the biggest obstacles to your business growth can be overcome through consistent small changes in daily processes. Working with a Fractional COO to develop and implement a solid action plan can deliver positive change for you and your team.
Growth comes from intentional actions. From start up to scale up, every business needs solid operational leadership to make it happen.
It happens to every business owner at some point: revenues stagnate and you find your business stuck at a plateau. You’ve tried several options to spur growth, but you’re not seeing the results you need. It helps to partner with someone with experience that can bring a fresh perspective and offer solutions.
Mark Guinn at Rock Bridge Solutions is a business growth strategist providing Fractional COO partnerships and business consulting services to small and medium businesses that are seeking ways to make their business more productive and increase revenue.
Whether you’ve been in business for years and need to adapt your operations to a changing market or launching your first business and looking for practical guidance, Mark is ready to help.
This isn’t just business consulting.
I’m on your team.
As a small to medium business owner, you are constantly placed in a position where you’re expected to do it all. You work with your customers, manage and train your employees, handle day-to-day operations, implement growth strategies, solve every crisis that comes your way, and everything in between. It can get overwhelming, and there are only so many hours in a day to get everything done. What if you could not only buy back some of your time, but have an expert on hand to help you develop your business into the powerhouse you know it can be?
For many businesses, it doesn’t make financial sense to hire a full-time Chief Operating Officer. The cost of salary and benefits, not to mention the added tax expense, can make it difficult to bring an experienced COO onto your team. Partnering with a Fractional COO, however, provides the same leadership benefits for a fraction of the cost.
As your Fractional COO, I dedicate 10-15 hours per week specifically to your business with unlimited contact availability to help however I can. This isn’t a business consulting position but an opportunity to be embedded in your team, rolling up my sleeves to work directly with you and your employees so we can effectively grow your business. I not only help you manage the daily tasks in your business, but also work with everyone in your business to create growth opportunities and keep your business on track for success. In short, I’m the sidekick you need to take your business to the next level.

Operations Efficiency
Small changes can make a big difference in net profitability.
Growth is fueled by efficiency. Smoother workflows, more effective customer engagements, and an energized team with the right tools can make the difference between increased profits and stagnation.
Marketing Strategy
Find the right marketing channels to effectively connect with your target audience.
If you don’t have a strong marketing strategy, you’re likely missing out on exponential growth potential. Finding the perfect balance between marketing channels, adequate budget for each, and a well-crafted message can take you from breaking even to year-over-year increases.
Leadership Coaching
Your people are your business's greatest asset. When they grow, your business grows.
Your employees don’t need a manager, they need a leader! Find more ways to support their growth within the business, help them discover opportunities to learn and improve, and encourage them to lean into their strengths. A great team with a strong leader can accomplish amazing things.
Crisis Management
Sometimes we find ourselves between a rock and a hard place that requires a creative solution.
Let’s face it, no business runs smoothly all the time. When you find yourself in a crisis situation, you need fast and decisive action that may require some out-of-the-box options. Let’s have a conversation about how Rock Bridge Solutions can help.
Where would you take your business if there was nothing standing in your way?
Most small businesses begin with a dream big enough to motivate you to make it happen. Unfortunately, over time many business owners find themselves so bogged down in the minutiae of the daily grind that they lose sight of their growth potential. It’s easy to feel like your business has plateaued because of a lack of resources.
Many times, however, it’s not a lack of resources that’s causing the problem. Instead, it’s how your resources are allocated. Whether we’re talking about cash, time, supplies, or even personal energy, business growth is almost entirely dependent on making the most of what you have to work with. We’ll work together to be sure resource allocation is properly aligned with your goals. Remember that dream? Let’s make it happen.
