How Nonprofit
Fractionals
Hit 6-Figures
with Just 3 Clients
Go behind the scenes of the Nonprofit Fractional Operating System - the proven system that turns coffee chats into $4K retainers and transforms seasoned nonprofit pros into confident fractional executives.
January 19, 1pm Eastern (10am Pacific)
A Sustainable, Values-Aligned Consulting Business Is Not a UNICORN.
It’s a System.
Whether you're already consulting and tired of chasing 20 clients just to pay rent, or you're still trapped in your nonprofit job doing three roles for one guilt-inducing salary...
This Open House reveals what's actually working for fractionals who refuse to apologize for wanting both impact AND a bank account with commas in it.
I’ll share the 3 biggest mistakes I see that keep fractionals make that keep them under paid, overworked, and overwhelmed.
No martyrdom required. No hustle worship. Just the proven system that gets you from 'barely surviving' to 'retirement fund that doesn't make you laugh-cry' faster than you thought possible.
Nonprofit pros can run $10M budgets, manage boards full of egos, and turn disasters into success stories with nothing but coffee and sheer determination.
And yet most consultants (and aspiring consultants) are quietly struggling.
Look, you can navigate organizational politics that would make corporate executives weep. You've stretched pennies into miracles and somehow made "other duties as assigned" sound like a career goal.
But when it comes to building a business that actually pays you what you're worth? Suddenly you're googling "how much should I charge" at 2am and second-guessing everything.
It's not because you're not smart enough. It's because nobody taught us that being brilliant at the work and being brilliant at business are two completely different skill sets.
-
If you’re already consulting, you might be:
// Overdelivering because you genuinely care
// Undervaluing yourself because “they’re a nonprofit”
// Riding the feast-or-famine rollercoaster
// Working nights and weekends “just to keep up”
// Wondering why your business doesn’t feel like freedom yet
-
If you’re still in your 9–5, you might be:
// Carrying the workload of three people
// Feeling guilty for wanting out
// Daydreaming about consulting but scared of instability
// Worried you’ll recreate the same burnout in a new container
// Asking, “Is there a responsible way to do this?”
Your skills aren’t the problem.
Your heart isn’t the problem.
The sector isn’t the (only) problem.
The missing piece is a business operating system built for nonprofit fractional consultants.
During this live OPEN HOUSE, you’ll discover:
// The 3 big mistakes fractionals make consistently that keep them underpaid, overworked, and overwhelmed.
// Why your nonprofit background is actually your superpower (even when imposter syndrome whispers that you're a fraud who got lucky)
// What the Nonprofit Fractional Operating System actually does beyond the pretty marketing—the real systems that turn "I have no idea what I'm doing" into "I've got this handled"
// Whether this program is right for your situation, your goals, and your "please don't let me end up broke" anxiety levels
Plus: Live Q&A Where I Actually Answer Your Questions
Bring your real concerns—"Am I charging enough?" "What if I pick the wrong niche?" "How do I set boundaries without feeling like a terrible person?" I'll stick around until your 2am panic spirals have actual solutions.
join us live if you’re…
// A nonprofit pro who's tired of explaining why you deserve a cost-of-living raise while the board debates new office furniture
// A consultant who's sick of being a one-person circus act—marketing, sales, delivery, bookkeeper, therapist—for what amounts to less than your old salary
// A fractional who still says "yes" when you mean "hell no" and works weekends because you're terrified they'll find someone cheaper
// Done with businesses that demand you sacrifice your sanity, your family time, and your financial future for the privilege of "following your passion"
// Someone who refuses to choose between doing meaningful work and paying off your student loans sometime before you're 80
MAYBE SIT THIS ONE OUT IF YOU’RE…
// Looking for the "3-step system to make millions while you sleep" because we're building real businesses here, not pyramid schemes with better branding
// Brand new to nonprofits and think you can "disrupt" the sector after watching one TED Talk about social entrepreneurship
// Still drinking the martyr Kool-Aid and believe suffering for the cause makes you more virtuous than actually solving problems
// Hunting for high-pressure tactics to manipulate nonprofits into paying you - because that's exactly the corporate BS our sector doesn't need
// Expecting me to coddle your feelings about charging what you're worth while you simultaneously complain about being broke
