Running a company can sometimes feel like steering a ship through stormy seas. As the captain, you can’t weather it all alone; you need a well-versed crew, ready to ride out the storm.
And that’s where a Fractional C-suite Executive comes in. To Strategize, To Guide!
A fractional CEO is an experienced business leader who provides strategic direction and leadership on an as-needed basis. They are usually brought in when a company is going through rapid growth or transformation and need an extra set of hands (and brains) to help them navigate through these choppy waters.
A fractional COO, on the other hand, is responsible for the day-to-day operations of the company. They work closely with the CEO to develop and implement strategic initiatives.

A fractional COO, on the other hand, is responsible for the day-to-day operations of the company. They work closely with the CEO to develop and implement strategic initiatives.
The use of fractional CEO/COO services can be beneficial for businesses in many different industries. For example, if you are operating with limited capital or have an inexperienced leader who needs more time to learn what they’re doing then this might work well as your team could focus on critical tasks while still getting all the guidance needed from those at the top management level.
With our fractional CEO service, you can tap into the vast experience and skill set of us who has already been through what your company is going through now. We know how to deal with these and guide your business on a positive track.
Your business will be scaling up faster with our experience and skills. We bring the plan to fruition, while also helping you to execute it with precision.
On the other hand, Fractional CEOs are a great way to bring the right kind of atmosphere into your small or medium-sized business. These founders cannot do everything on their own as most of the time they lack resources. So it's important for them to find ways around this problem. And our part-time CEOs can help you with a practical solution.
It can be difficult for any organization to change their track and or take a big step. And when leaders are overwhelmed and have no one to guide them properly they are afraid to make changes.
Our fractional CEO can be the catalyst to incite change. They possess the practical experience and reliable knowledge that provide guidance to business owners.
Usually, the business owner hands over leadership to his son or a close one after a while. In this instance, you need an experienced guide who can help smooth out any bumps in the transition process for both parties involved.
With our years of experience, we're able to provide your company with guidance so that everything goes off without a hitch.
Sometimes a business owner’s vision and the implementation don’t work together. It can happen due to the lack of resources or inexperienced managers. The main goal of Dependopolis is to remove the gap. We also suggest to the owners what is best for them.
After taking a project, we are talking to the owner, collect all the data, and ask them about their goal. We utilize all the information, we come up with the best solution for the business.
We guide the decision maker and they do the implementation on their own. Our job is to guide you to reach your goal more efficiently.
Giving perfect operational insights or strategy need different kinds of skill set-up. At Dependopolis we have years of practical knowledge of operating businesses. So if you need an advisor who can handle your problem precisely, Dependopolis is where it’s at!
We partner with business owners who don’t have the budget to hire a full-time CEO or who need expert guidance for a time being. We will work hard on every detail so you can focus more energy towards running things successfully.
When a business owner’s staff and responsibilities grow too large for one person, they may need the help of an executive. However, hiring a full-time CEO is expensive and many SMBs can’t afford it.
In this instance, Fractional CEOs or COOs could be the best option as they are not expensive as a full-time CEO. But they can provide assistance by managing operations while letting owners focus on developing their businesses in whatever way best suits them.
Each business has different needs. The initial task of a C-suit executive is to involve deeply with the company’s policy, vision and mission. They listen to the plan maker, analyze, improvise the plan, do market research, and so on.
Once they have done the data collection and the homework they can come up with a strategy. So the more complex the understanding process will be the more time it will take for a c-suite executive.
It depends on the degree of involvement the owner wants to have in an operation. The fractional COO and CEO help the owner to set up a system. As soon as the system is created they can leave their positions.
However, sometimes owners need to follow up on services. At that time, they can again contact a fractional CEO or COO.
Full-time CEO will work on the company’s behalf 24/7. They are usually responsible for all aspects of the business. From strategic planning to day-to-day operations. They are typically involved in all major decisions and have a lot of control over the direction of the company. They have a team of people to help them, but the final decisions rest with the CEO.
A fractional CEO, on the other hand, steps in as more of a consultant. They provide guidance and advice. Fractional CEOs are only responsible for a portion of the company. Someone else might handle day-to-day operations, but the Fractional CEO provides direction and makes important decisions. They offer valuable outside perspectives and guidance.
So, there is no fixed answer to which one is better. It totally depends on your business type, size, budget and the overall situation.
At the very beginning, we perform a discovery process through video calls in Zoom, Meet, Discord, Slack, or any other platforms that the client is comfortable with. We collect information about clients’ nature of businesses, their goals and objectives, their pain points, and every related matter. We also ask about their expectation from the fractional CEO and what they want to achieve through us.
After collecting all the data through clarifying questions, we do further research to gain the perfect insights. Sometimes we do several meetings after the initial one with the business owners as well as interact with the other team members if required.
When we finally get a deep understanding of the problems, we come up with a solution and share it with the decision maker.
That’s the basic strategy to handle all our projects.
Dependopolis work with all kinds of small to medium-sized businesses that are struggling to gain clarity, resolve issues, and increase profitability.
One of the best things about Dependopolis is that we’re very transparent with our process. We involve clients in every important aspect through Basecamp, Click Up and etc. tools so they can check out how their project progresses from start to finish.
Once both parties agree on a strategy for implementation we close out the project together. That’s how we give a proper closure.
As we involve the clients in all the phases of a project, they can give feedback about the progress in every step. So, we don’t have to start from scratch if they don’t agree with any of the parts.
And when a difference of opinion arose, we will listen to our client’s objectives. Then we try to do our best to satisfy their desire.
1. When a client expresses disagreement with our proposed approach, we carefully evaluate their concerns. If their feedback is reasonable, we will adjust our strategy accordingly. However, if we believe that our approach would produce the best outcome, we will communicate our reasoning and try to find a solution that satisfies both parties.
2. Effective communication is essential for any project to run smoothly. We recognize that some clients may have difficulty articulating their requirements, so we take a proactive approach to seeking clarity. By asking thoughtful questions and actively listening to the client’s responses, we can gain a deeper understanding of their needs and ensure that we deliver a solution that meets their expectations.
