Longmont, Colorado
Fractional COO for Longmont business owners
We improve businesses. So your Longmont business can run without you.
What we do for Longmont business owners
- Operating Partner. A senior operator who runs the day to day with you, a few days a week, until the business runs on a steady rhythm.
- Turnaround. For owners whose cash, margin or sales are sliding. We find out what is really happening, stop the bleeding, and put a weekly rhythm in place.
- Succession Operating Partner. For owners getting ready to sell, hand off, or step back. We get the business to the point where it can run without you.
- Selling to Your Employees. Thinking about selling to your team through an ESOP, an employee ownership trust or a co-op? We get the business ready to run without you, and work alongside your attorney and valuation firm.
- The 30-Day Test. A free scorecard that shows how much your business depends on you.

Running a business in Longmont
Longmont is now a city of about 100,000. It grew from 86,270 residents in 2010 to 98,885 in 2020, and the Census Bureau estimates 100,109 in 2025.
It is also a maker town. The Longmont Economic Development Partnership's Advance Longmont 2.0 plan targets four industry groups: smart manufacturing, food and beverage, knowledge creation and deployment, and what it calls business catalysts, the companies whose job is helping other businesses run. The plan notes that Longmont has nearly five times the national average concentration of food and beverage companies. Companies like these lean on local electricians, mechanical contractors, maintenance crews and service firms, which are often owner-led companies themselves.
The Longmont Area Chamber of Commerce is at 528 Main Street, and the Boulder Small Business Development Center keeps a satellite office in the same building, so no-cost advising is close at hand.
If you own a Longmont trades or service company, you know how much of it sits on your shoulders. We help move that weight onto a team and a system, so the company can keep going without you in every decision.
