Our Why

Let Us Take Away Your Headache

A fractional Chief Operating Officer is an experienced operations leader who works with a company part-time or on a contract basis instead of being a full-time executive.

Think of it like this: you’re getting high-level operational strategy and leadership but only for the amount of time (and cost) your business actually needs.

What We Do:

Fix bottlenecks and inefficiencies

Build and improve systems and processes

Streamline day-to-day operations

Create scalable workflows for growth

Manage or mentor internal teams

Align operations with business goals

Full Fractional COO Support

Spanning all areas of business operations, a full fractional COO engagement is ideal for companies ready to scale but lacking the internal structure to support it. This service provides hands-on leadership to manage day-to-day operations while simultaneously building the systems, processes, and infrastructure needed for sustainable growth. From team oversight and workflow optimization to performance tracking and strategic execution, we step in as your operational partner—so you can focus on vision, growth, and revenue.

Project-Based Support

Focused on a specific goal or initiative, project-based support is ideal when your business needs expert execution without a long-term commitment. Whether you’re launching a new service, implementing systems, restructuring workflows, or solving a specific operational challenge, this engagement delivers targeted strategy and hands-on implementation. We step in to define the scope, streamline the process, and ensure completion – so your project moves from idea to execution with clarity, efficiency, and results.

Strategy and Organization Support

If your business feels inefficient, disorganized, or stuck, our Operations Sprint is a focused, project-based solution designed to fix your biggest operational bottleneck. Through a deep dive into your current workflows, we identify gaps, eliminate inefficiencies, and build clear standard operating procedures (SOPs) that improve productivity and consistency. This business process optimization service is ideal for companies looking to streamline operations, improve team performance, and create systems that support sustainable growth, all within a defined 60–90 day engagement.

Launch Partner

Launching a business or new offer requires more than just a good idea. It requires the right systems, structure, and strategy. Our Launch Partner service provides startup launch support to help entrepreneurs build a strong operational foundation from day one. We guide you through business setup, workflow design, and scalable system implementation so your business is built to generate revenue and grow efficiently.

To ensure your business gets off on the right foot, we also collaborate with trusted business attorneys and branding partners—helping you establish your legal structure, protect your business, and build a strong, professional brand presence from the start. Whether you’re starting a new business or expanding your services, we help you launch with clarity, confidence, and the infrastructure needed to reach your first major revenue milestones.

Testimonials

What our clients are saying about us

Stuart L.

I’ve known Ellie Brenner for over ten years and have been consistently impressed by her. Ellie combines focus, cheerfulness, and personability, leading to success in every endeavor she undertakes. As a teenage athlete at my fencing club, she was outstanding, always displaying dignity and excellent sportsmanship. She brought honor to our club and built positive relationships with teammates and opponents alike.

After graduating from university, Ellie returned to San Diego and reached out about LionHeart, my small family-owned business with approximately $300,000 in annual revenue and 300 dedicated clients. I hired her immediately. Knowing I aimed to position the company for sale, I tasked Ellie with helping us reach that goal. She streamlined our office procedures, collaborated with the family to create a comprehensive operations manual for future owners, and consistently managed our social media to share positive updates about our studio.

I wholeheartedly recommend Ellie Brenner to any small or medium-sized company.

Lee T.

Ellie Brenner of Brenner Consulting helped our small business get streamlined and into compliance in several areas. Like most small businesses, we were overwhelmed doing all of the administrative work while also providing all of the services that our business offers. Here are just a few of the things that Brenner Consulting helped us develop:

An invoicing system to collect fees for services completed
An operations manual
An employee handbook
Social media and marketing campaigns
An awareness of labor laws that exist, and are also proposed

Ellie is easy to chat with and she has the ability to clearly define what is needed to get your business on track. Definitely a 5-star recommendation!
