Hiring Fractional workers or part-time business advisors makes good sense
Sometimes it makes sense to hire a full-time employee to handle a task for your company. Other times, it doesn’t make sense.
In some instances, it makes good sense to find an inexperienced but hard-working candidate and slowly train them on how your company works and what is required for the job.
But sometimes you DON’T KNOW what they should be doing – you simply realize you have a gap to fill. You need to hire a more experienced person that understands your problem and knows how to solve it.
But many companies struggle with not having enough cash flow to hire experts across all domains, to provide the experience and knowledge required. So instead they turn to fractional employee
Fractional employees can provide all the benefits of experience and knowledge, without the cost of a full-time employee.
Companies all over the country and around the world are finding success with this model. It has been proven effective in a variety of disciplines, including HR, Finance, Marketing, Strategic Planning, and even executive leadership.
