APN Group
Savvy installed a fractional COO, documented the firm's proprietary methods, and took the founder out of daily delivery.
Leverage with Media had the classic founder problem: too much ran through the CEO. Processes lived in her head, not on paper, and client delivery depended on her being in the room. Without a leadership layer or a repeatable way to operate, the firm was set to plateau at the limit of one person’s calendar.
Savvy embedded a fractional COO to run operations and bring discipline to delivery. We documented the firm’s proprietary methods so they became company assets instead of the founder’s memory, then trained the team to execute that IP day to day. The work centered on structural capital: the processes and ownership that let the business deliver consistently without the founder in the middle.
In six months the firm hired five new team members, doubled client volume, and doubled its forecasted revenue for the coming year. The founder moved off daily execution and onto strategy and growth, and the firm now has an operational base it can scale on.
“Since working with Savvy in the last 6 months, we have hired 5 new team members, doubled our client volume, and doubled our forecasted revenue for the coming year. If you want to grow, to scale, you need to work with them. You need to get out of your own way. As visionaries we tend to want to control every outcome. We become our own obstacle to our own growth. They’ve helped me take my business to the next level. I give Savvy an 11/10.
