Fractional COO, CFO, and Business Consulting FAQ

Blue Brick Partners works as a fractional COO, fractional CFO, and general business consultant for companies in Dallas and across Texas. The questions below cover scope, pricing, and how engagements run.

What does a fractional COO or CFO engagement cover?

The work depends on the company. Common areas include cash management planning, operations improvement, personnel structuring and restructuring, negotiation support on vendor and partner agreements, and direct involvement in weekly operating decisions. We can act as the interim operating or finance lead, or work alongside an existing team.

How much does a day of consulting cost?

A full day is $2,000. A half day is $1,000. Longer engagements are available at negotiated rates that reflect the scope, expected duration, and level of decision authority involved.

Do you commit to long-term retainers?

Yes. For multi-month or open-ended work we use a negotiated monthly retainer rather than the day rate. The structure depends on time commitment, on-site versus remote split, and whether the role includes signing authority.

What kinds of companies do you usually work with?

Most engagements are with operating companies between $2M and $50M in revenue that need experienced operating or finance support without hiring a full-time executive. We have worked across real estate, services, light manufacturing, and technology businesses.

How does an engagement start?

A short intake call covers the situation, current team, and the outcome you want. If the fit is right we send a written scope with the day or retainer structure, and the work usually begins within one to two weeks.
