The Fractionator

Second-in-command for visionary founders who've been doing both jobs.

Hi, I'm Forrest, the Operator. I've spent 27+ years in leadership roles and the last six as a fractional COO. If you're a founder running both your job and the integrator job, this is where it stops.

Hire me to run alongside you. Hire one of my fractionals if I'm not the fit. Or build your own fractional practice with the playbooks.

Engagement

Hire me as your fractional COO. Or one of my picks.

For visionaries who need a second-in-command, and for the implementers, fractional CFOs, and other operators who refer their clients to me for the same seat. You walk in with one problem: a founder needs an integrator. I run a matching service for that. Sometimes the match is me. Sometimes it's someone from my bench. The discovery call sorts it out, and either way the founder walks away with an operator I'd stake my name on.

Placement

For operators who want to be part of the bench.

If you're already a fractional COO running a real practice, the bench is how you get in front of founders who need you. Not a directory. Not a marketplace. A short list of operators I'd put my name on, vetted the way I'd vet a hire.

Playbooks

For fractional COOs who want a real practice.

I built The Fractionator Playbook for the operator I was when I started, the one nobody told the truth to. Buy the playbook, book a coaching call, learn how to stop charging by the hour and start running a practice.

About Forrest

27+ years in the seat. Six years as a fractional COO. Walked the path. Know the way.

I was a closet integrator before I knew what it was. I sat in the second seat across multiple companies, took the integrator role by default, and ran the day-to-day for visionary founders who needed the seat filled. When I named it, I built a practice around it.

Now I do this for a living. And I help other operators do the same.
