Refer operational problems you can't solve.
You see it before anyone else does. The numbers are fine, the strategy is sound, but nothing executes without the owner in the room. That's not a finance problem or a strategy problem — it's an operations problem, and it's the one you're not positioned to fix.
Markinly works with businesses between $1M and $20M in revenue across the US, UK and Europe. Two ways in: an embedded COO inside the business, or operations and business management consulting on a weekly or quarterly rhythm. Twenty years of operational leadership, and no overlap with what you do.
Three signs worth an introduction
The owner is the bottleneck.
The business has outgrown the way it's run, and every decision still routes through one person.
Growth has outpaced systems.
More revenue, more chaos, and no structure underneath it.
There's no operating rhythm.
No cadence, no accountability, nobody clearly owning outcomes.
You don't need to work out which service fits. Make the introduction and Markinly will scope it.
Five steps, and you only take the first
- 1
You make an introduction — company name, a contact, and a line of context.
- 2
Markinly takes it from there. Scoping, proposal, delivery. You stay out of it unless you want to be involved.
- 3
If it becomes an engagement, you receive 10% of first-year fees, paid quarterly on fees collected.
- 4
Introductions are credited for twelve months from the date you make them.
- 5
Every quarter you get a short note: what you introduced, what progressed, and what's been paid.
Advisers close enough to see it
- Fractional CFOs
- M&A advisors and business brokers
- Accountants with advisory practices
Anyone who sits close enough to a business to see the operational problem, and far enough from it to not be the one who fixes it.
Register an introduction, or get in touch if you'd rather talk it through first.
