Welcome to Fractional Solutions
As the world continues to change and evolve, so do our working practices, and with the rise of remote work and the gig economy's growth, traditional 9-5 jobs are no longer the norm. In the professional services industry, this shift has given rise to a new type of approach from businesses that need the right expertise at the right time, at the right cost, and it's called;
FRACTIONAL CONSULTING
If you’re looking for targeted expertise, fresh perspectives, flexibility and scaleability, faster implementation, and cost efficiency, then engaging the services of a Fractional Consultant could be the right move for you.
And you have come to the right place!
The Common Challenge
At Fractional Solutions, we understand the challenges that business leaders encounter in today's fast changing business landscape.
​
These challenges have been brought on by significant financial pressures, the need to do more with less, and evolving ways of working.

Fractional Consulting has become a smart alternative to traditional full-time hiring as it provides businesses with access to experienced, high-impact professionals - without the long-term commitment or the costs associated with a permanent hire.
Fractional Consulting in a nutshell
1
Cost-Effective & Specialised Expertise
Highly skilled professionals who have faced—and solved—the challenges you’re dealing with now and can focus on your specific areas of need. Whether that’s interim leadership, strategic guidance, or hands-on execution, Fractional Consultants can provide senior-level expertise without the risks of hiring a full time executive or committing to a full-time salary.
2
Flexibility &
Scaleability
Total flexibility; Fractional Consultants can be hired as needed, which allows you to scale up or down adapting to you and your organisation’s specific needs. Work arrangements are flexible, they can work on-site, remotely or a combination of both. As your business grows and priorities shift, your Fractional Consultant can flex with you.

Perspective
Fractional Consultants bring an outside perspective and provide unbiased advice and insights that internal employees might not be able to offer. This is especially valuable during times of change and uncertainty, when you may need to focus on a specific objective and you need to get quicker results.

Your path to Growth.
At Fractional Solutions, our area of expertise is Growth Planning & Sales Leadership, helping organisations plan their Growth Strategy by workshopping 10 modules that we believe are critical to the success of every business. Our model integrates into any size business, but Small to Medium sized organisations will particularly find it of value.

Everything is built to be collaborative and actionable.
We have a thorough process, we prioritise what's critical together, build your Growth Plan and create an implementation & timeline plan, aligned to your business objectives.
Then we implement it, we work out what you can do, what others can do and what we can do to support your continued growth.
How we will help.

About Fractional Solutions
My expertise is in Sales, Business Development and Client Management, as well as all the areas that fit alongside to make an organisation successful - Revenue Analysis, Forecasting, building the right Value Proposition, getting an edge on your competitors, hiring the right People, and then keeping them!. I am also a Sales person that gets, and values, Marketing, and am highly experienced in ensuring the two functions work harmoniously towards the same goal, not against each other!
RICHARD TURNER
Let's be open and honest from the start!
​​​​I am not a CFO or a CMO, although if this is specifically what you are looking for, I can help you through my network of trusted partners.
Chances are though, If you are a small to medium sized business facing growth challenges, you do not need a CFO or CMO right now, that's too big a leap and may come later.
Financials & Marketing are part of my 10 modules though, so we do cover this as part of your Growth Plan and build everything out aligned to your needs and priorities.
​​​
I am not a Content or Media strategist by definition, but I know this space exceptionally well and can provide you support here if that is what you need - but again, as an SME that is looking to focus on Growth, this will likely be less of a critical need right now, it will form part of your longer term plan. We cover this off also in your Growth Plan. ​
​​
​
How can we help?
​​​​​​​​What you do need right now is a starting point, you need to refocus, you need a plan, you need help to prioritise what's important and you need help to build and implement a practical Growth Plan that talks to you, in your language.
​
This is where we can help you.
​​Our ten module Growth Plan is built on proven strategies and our practical experience gained over thirty years. It will align with your business goals and provide you with a solid foundation for growth of your business.
​​​
If you don't have any clear business goals, thats OK, many don't, we can help you to build this in a practical, simplified way (one of the areas we cover in your Growth Plan).
​​​
It will also help you to get your employees and stakeholders on board with your vision and your plan.​
At this point, many service providers will then walk away, but I will stay with you for the next critical stage to help you implement your Growth Plan​, to prioritise and to make decisions on who can do what and when.

Here's some free advice!
One of the common challenges we come across, especially for SMEs, is that owners and managing directors are spread too thinly across their business, juggling multiple roles themselves, which can have a negative impact on their focus and the growth of their business.
​​
Surprisingly, Sales & Growth does not always get the attention it needs, and many over-rely on two things that they agree is not a sustainable model for Growth & Success!
​
​
​
​
​
​​​​​​​​Often, some of the basics get overlooked, for example, their Value Proposition is lacking and what should be a well thought out alignment to their potential client's needs, becomes a features and benefits list that doesn't talk to their true Value Proposition. Many people we talk to, when we ask them to articulate their Value Proposition, lean into their exceptional Client Service, and the great things that clients say about them.
​​
But here's a bit of a wake up call, when pitching for new business, especially if your brand is not as well known as your competitors, this is not a strong Value Proposition, no matter how good you are at Client Service. Your competitors will all be saying exactly the same thing, and it will be hard to differentiate yourself. Yes, great to have case studies and testimonials, but excellence in customer service & delivery is a critical part of your value proposition for your client retention and referral strategy - you should look deeper than this for your new business strategy.
​​
So, if you do nothing from reading this, I would just encourage you to do one thing.
Review your Value Proposition!
It is one of the modules in our 10 module Growth Plan.
But, you can get started on this without me and there are some easy to use tools you can access online for free. Tools like the Value Proposition Canvas - a great model developed by Alexander Osterwalder, Founder & CEO Strategyzer.
​​​​
It will help make a difference and get you started on your path to Growth.
​​​​
I would welcome the opportunity to discuss all this with you if anything has resonated and you are interested to get your own Growth Plans kickstarted. Maybe you have already tried a lead generation solution or considering it, or looking to hire a BDM as a way to grow your business, but this may not be the right solution just yet, I recommend you take a few steps back from that first!
