Your Fractional COO for Hospitality Operations

Weekly strategy calls. Unlimited support. Real accountability. No full-time salary.

Typical path: Start with a $750 Profit Leak Snapshot (credited toward Month 1 if you retain me). This ensures we're a fit and you see my value before committing monthly.

The Snapshot is the best way to see if fractional COO support is right for you. We'll identify your profit leaks, and if ongoing implementation support makes sense, we can discuss it during your session. Your $750 investment credits toward your first month.

The Problem Most Operators Face

You need strategic leadership...

Someone to help you think through expansion, optimize systems, coach managers, and keep your operations running tight. You know what you need—but finding (and affording) the right person full-time is nearly impossible.

...but can't justify a full-time COO

A seasoned COO costs $120K-$180K+ per year, plus benefits. That's a massive overhead for most operators. You need the expertise and accountability, not another full-time salary eating into margins.

So you stay stuck

You wear all the hats. Strategy gets buried under daily fires. Projects stall. KPIs drift. You're running hard but not building momentum. Meanwhile, the right partner could change everything—if you could afford one.

The Fractional COO Solution

Calm operations are built. They are not a personality trait.

You get COO-level strategic leadership—weekly calls, unlimited access, KPI reviews, problem-solving, accountability—for a fraction of the full-time cost. No hiring process. No onboarding chaos. No overhead. Just an experienced operator in your corner, helping you build systems, make better decisions, and move the numbers that matter.

This is not consulting. This is not coaching. This is fractional leadership—a real partnership where I show up every week, dig into your business, and help you execute like you have a full-time COO without paying a full-time salary.

What's Included

Weekly Strategy Calls

45-60 minutes every week to review KPIs, unblock problems, set priorities, and make decisions. Structured agenda. Clear action items. Documented accountability.

Unlimited Access

Slack or email support between calls. When something urgent comes up, you don't wait a week. Real-time problem-solving when you need it most.

KPI Reviews & Dashboards

We track the 5-7 metrics that actually move your business—labor %, food cost, sales trends, guest satisfaction—and review them weekly so nothing slips.

Strategic Accountability

Projects don't drift. Initiatives don't stall. Every week we review what got done, what didn't, and why. Clear ownership. Real follow-through.

About Your Fractional COO

Tre Coleman

I've spent 10+ years in hospitality operations—running multi-unit teams, opening new locations, fixing broken systems, and driving P&L accountability in high-volume environments. I'm not a theorist. I'm an operator who's been in your shoes: managing daily fires, coaching managers, optimizing labor, and figuring out how to scale without breaking what's already working.

My approach is simple: operator-first, data-driven, execution-focused. I help you identify the 20% that moves 80% of results, build systems your team will actually use, and hold you accountable to the KPIs that matter. No fluff. No theory. Just practical frameworks and strategic partnership to help you build a business that runs tight and grows smart.

Credentials: Multi-unit hospitality leadership, operations consulting, AI integration strategy, SOPs & training development, menu engineering, local store marketing. Based in Lake Monticello, VA. Clients across restaurants, food trucks, catering, and ghost kitchens.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is this different from regular consulting?

Consulting is typically project-based and transactional—you get a deliverable, then you're on your own. Fractional COO is ongoing partnership. I'm in your business every week, reviewing KPIs, solving problems in real-time, and holding you accountable to execution. Think of it as having a COO on retainer, not a consultant on a project.

What if I already completed a Profit Leak Snapshot with you?

Perfect—that means we've already identified your top profit leaks and priority fixes. The Fractional COO partnership is where we execute on those recommendations together. Plus, your $750 Snapshot fee gets credited toward your first month if you start within 30 days.

Can I cancel after the 3-month minimum?

Yes. After the initial 3-month commitment, the engagement is month-to-month. You can pause or cancel with 30 days notice. Most clients stick around because they see the value—but there's no long-term lock-in beyond the first 90 days.

Do you work on-site or is this remote?

This is primarily remote partnership—weekly Zoom calls and Slack/email support. If you're within driving distance of Central Virginia and need an on-site visit for a specific project (new location opening, training session, etc.), we can arrange that for an additional fee.

What kind of results can I expect?

Most clients see measurable improvements in KPIs (labor %, food cost, sales trends) within the first 60 days. Beyond the numbers, you'll get clarity on priorities, accountability on execution, and strategic confidence in your decisions. Think of it as getting your time back to focus on growth instead of firefighting, plus an experienced operator to gut-check your big moves.
