You have traction, a compelling offer, and maybe even funding—but scaling it all sustainably? That’s another story.

That’s where we come in.

T. Watson offers Fractional Chief Growth & Operations Officer (CGOO) services for founders, leadership teams, and organizations in motion. We embed inside your business with the authority of a full-time executive—without the overhead. From strategy to execution, we bring the expertise to align your revenue goals, team structure, marketing channels, operational systems, and financial strategy under one umbrella.

You're not hiring a consultant. You're gaining a true cross-functional partner—one who moves quickly, leads confidently, and builds infrastructure that’s designed to scale.

High-growth businesses hit inflection points where the vision outpaces the structure.

What Is a Fractional CGOO—and Why Now?

You’re burning cash on teams, tools, or agencies but not getting results.

You’ve hit a ceiling and don’t know why.

We’re the bridge between where you are and where you’re trying to go if...

Frequently Asked Questions

How does pricing work for Fractional CGOO services?

We offer tiered monthly retainers, à la carte project pricing, and long-term partnership packages based on scope. Each engagement is tailored to your business needs and budget.

How is success measured?

We align our efforts with your business goals. Key metrics often include revenue growth, profit margin improvement, operational efficiency, team performance, and customer retention.

How do you integrate into an existing leadership team without disrupting day-to-day operations?

We approach every engagement as a collaborative partner—not a disruptor. Our first step is a diagnostic phase to understand your team's dynamics, workflows, and culture. From there, we integrate seamlessly, often acting as a “force multiplier” to existing executives, bringing clarity and alignment without adding layers of complexity.

What’s the difference between a Fractional CGOO and a business coach or consultant?

Unlike a coach or consultant who advises from the sidelines, a Fractional CGOO rolls up their sleeves and works in the business. We don’t just identify gaps—we fill them. We’re embedded in decision-making, execution, and accountability, ensuring your strategies are implemented with real-time oversight and measurable results.

How quickly can we expect to see results?

Timelines vary by company maturity and scope, but most clients begin to see strategic clarity and operational improvements within the first 60 days. Tangible financial or performance metrics typically emerge between months 3 and 4, depending on the initiatives prioritized.

Will you work with our existing vendors, teams, or systems—or bring in your own?

We do both. We’re vendor- and platform-agnostic, meaning we assess your current ecosystem and only suggest changes when they’re proven to drive ROI. If needed, we can recommend vetted partners, tools, or hires—but we never push outside resources unless there's a clear strategic advantage.

What if we outgrow the need for a Fractional CGOO?

That’s the goal. Our purpose is to build internal capacity and systems that allow your business to scale sustainably—with or without us. Many clients eventually transition to full-time leadership or maintain us in a quarterly strategic advisory role as they mature.
