Case Studies
Every founder on this page had a problem they couldn’t hire their way out of. Until they did.
Convoke's leadership was doing everything — and nothing was landing. A fractional CMO stepped in, built a focused strategy, and let the product speak.
Matium's national reshoring goals were at risk because the leadership structure couldn't hold. Coaching rebuilt the team's capabilities and unified direction.
Mike was drowning in his own company. He did what he tells every founder to do — brought in a fractional operator. It changed how the business runs.
RightHear had the product. They didn't have a US sales engine. A fractional sales executive built one from scratch — and it hasn't stopped since.
What Founders Are Saying
Since 2021, we’ve helped 150+ B2B founders find the fractional executive they needed to scale. These are their words, not ours.
Case Studies
"Fear of the unknown. Fear of not knowing Mike Malloy or Malloy Industries and having to trust that they were good at their jobs. That's why we almost didn't invest...The Malloy Industries team built trust very quickly with their transparency and consistency."
"It became clear in the first 2 weeks of the onboarding process that Malloy Industries was actually dedicated to understanding the root causes of our problems. I was impressed with the thoroughness, diligence, and well documented process. They were clear in how it works and helped me feel confident that they know what they're doing."
"Honestly, I was concerned about the upfront cost and risk associated with making the 7.5k investment...Working with Malloy definitely made finding a good fit to lead our sales team a lot easier. Unlike competitor firms or individual fractionals, who might rush to figure out the quickest thing they can start working on to make money ASAP without understanding all the variables, the Malloy Industries team invested a lot of time to deep dive into the business."
The Marketing Bullseye Exercise was a really valuable session. It was refreshing to have an objective perspective on our work and to talk it through in detail. I found the exercise both useful and informative, and it gave us new ways to look at our marketing approach. I really appreciate the time and effort you put into moderating and guiding the discussion.
Felix Gray is a lean startup that struggled with finding trustworthy executives to help scale our business to achieve business objectives and growth milestones. Malloy Industries helped Felix Gray recruit and hire quality fractional executives to provide additional bandwidth to improve and update our B2B sales strategy. Malloy was instrumental in building relationships with new leads, channel partners, and customers, closing sales, and hitting revenue targets.
Malloy Industries helped Poligage source a terrific yet affordable marketing strategist and support team that we never would have found on our own. Great team and network!
Mike and his team at Malloy Industries are an endless source of ideas and connections for small business owners like myself. We needed help growing our TikTok presence, and Mike immediately thought of great connection. Within days we were connected to the agency, had an initial discussion, and just a few weeks later signed on to work with them. It was easy and smooth!
Mike Malloy is so generous with his time, expertise, and network. I really appreciate his advice regarding sales. I hope to run my business in the people-first way he runs Malloy Industries!
I wasn't sure about the cost of hiring an On-Demand HR Director, but after talking with Mike, the cost versus benefit for me was clear. The cost was too high for me personally to ignore this. Without help, I wouldn't have been able to complete all the HR tasks, and I wouldn't have done them correctly. As a result of working together, I've been able to staff up my company in just a few weeks without headaches, because I haven't personally had to deal with the HR requirements. It's less on my plate. The direct integration with my company was extremely valuable because my On-Demand HR Director reached out using the same company email address. For the candidates and new hires, it helps to build trust and authenticity with our brand. It's clear who the HR person is to go to for whatever the staff needs throughout the onboarding process. I would recommend working with Malloy Industries because the process of getting started was so smooth, seamless, and efficient. Malloy's impact has served as a catalyst for growth in my company.
Hiring Malloy Industries was one of our best decisions of the year. Their collaborative consulting approach, technical know-how, and "get it done" attitude made them great to work with. With their partnership, we successfully implemented several automation projects that had been on our to-do list for over 2 years. Our employees gained immediate measurable efficiencies – I think that's because Malloy took the time to really understand our work processes, bottlenecks, and pain points.
My company had the opportunity to work with Malloy Industries, and this was one of the best experiences we had working with a consulting firm. They provided the tools to scope the project effectively and even added insights into where we had blind spots. I was amazed by how they kept the lines of communication open and were quick to adjust when our team made some iterations to our startup. The deliverables we received were detailed and produced with the highest quality. I would 10/10 recommend working with this fantastic team.
It's difficult to imagine a more thoughtful, better designed consulting/fractional services firm for start-ups and small businesses than Malloy Industries. Running and scaling business is HARD, and Mike & his team of consultants understand this firsthand and meet you where you are. I'm a different, more confident, and knowledgeable executive because of Mike Malloy's coaching and Be Girl is better & stronger because of the sales training we received from one of his partner consultants. If you're on the fence wondering if you'll get results, trust me you will. Work with Mike & his team, you'll be grateful you did.
Working with Malloy Industries is tremendously helpful to think about the business from a new perspective because identifying unknown unknowns is the most challenging thing to do on your own. For example, we recently hired a new team member with no plan or process to onboard her. We mentioned this to Malloy, and they generously shared all their onboarding resources and templates. Less than 24 hours before she started, we built a cohesive set of onboarding activities for her first day, first week, and first month. The new hire was super impressed! The onboarding resources will help you avoid the "Hey, I showed up and don't know what to talk about" problem during a new hire's first week and future 1:1 meetings.
Mike Malloy is a remarkable start up advisor and faculty member, who works tirelessly to support next generation leaders. He also tells the best dad jokes.
Malloy Industries helped us distill our complicated and uncertain selling process into a simple and thoughtful framework. Malloy treated us like family, never shying away from difficult topics and speaking the kind truth to simplify how we think about our challenges. When we were trying to organize multiple disparate processes in our business, Malloy Industries took the time to understand our business fundamentals fully and streamline our processes to all link together, ultimately driving a better sales strategy.
Mike and his team have provided great opportunities to our firm. Mike introduced me to a firm that now helps us run our HR functions. In addition, he introduced me to a colleague, which is now one of our top clients. Above all, Mike has become a good friend and trusted confidant, which is difficult to find in business today.
It was a pleasure to work with Mike and Malloy Industries. Over several months, Mike met with us to identify a gap in our program around coaching services for entrepreneurs. Thankfully, we delegated the details of building out the coaching program to Malloy Industries. They recruited several talented coaches and led sessions with our entrepreneurs to give a presentation about coaching, facilitate breakout room discussions, and create connections between coaches and entrepreneurs to increase the value of our program.
No long discovery phase. No weeks of back-and-forth. From first call to embedded operator in 14 days or less.
