Why should I work with 3sixty Consulting Group?

You are hiring a senior executive with over 30 years’ experience that has one purpose: to meet your objectives and help your organization prosper.  A commitment to service and understanding that the client has options, and our partnership will be treated with the utmost appreciation and respect.

What are Fractional Services?

They are agreed upon services which are agreed on upfront, usually for a fixed fee. For example, if we determine that your services require approximately 40 hours a month, you are paying only for ¼ of a CFO/COO.  This is why it’s perfect for the small or growing organization. Learn more about our Interim COO & CFO consulting.

How long am I committed to a Fractional Consultant?

While we hope to have a lasting and long-term relationship, we realize that needs change and sometimes you will outgrow us. If that happens, we feel like we have done an excellent job!

How much do Fractional Services cost?

This is one of the greatest benefits of using a Fractional CFO/COO.  You don’t have to pay six figures to get 30 years of experience.  We design a plan that is right for you which can either be a flat fee (preferred) or hourly.  Regardless, it’s a fraction of the cost, no pun intended!

Are Fractional Services completely remote?

We hope not!  While we will always be sensitive to everyone’s preferences, there simply is no substitute to getting the true feel of an organization without being onsite.  Of course, most people prefer a blend of both on site and remote but again, you are the client, and we tailor to you!
