What CEOs are saying
Real results. Real CEOs.
- ★★★★★
“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.”
Leora DavalosCo-Founder & CEO, Thrive Digital Health - ★★★★★
“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.”
Alex EstepCo-Founder & COO, Little Arms Studios - ★★★★★
“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.”
Kyle BishopCo-Founder & CEO, Little Arms Studios

Frequently Asked Questions
Got questions? We’ve got answers.
The most common questions growth-stage CEOs and Founders ask before working with Malloy Industries.
Read all FAQsI’m the bottleneck. Everything runs through me. How does a fractional get things off my plate?
A fractional executive owns a function end to end, turning what lives in your head into systems your team can run, so you stop being the single point of failure.
- They take what lives in your head and turn it into systems your team can run.
- They train the team to own it.
- They report back so you keep visibility without doing the work yourself.
The goal is to remove you as the single point of failure in the part of the business that is eating your time, so you get back to the work only you can do.
I’ve been burned before. Why should I trust you?
We have 150+ clients who trust us with their businesses, and we’re happy to connect you directly with CEOs we’ve helped. Just book a discovery call and ask.
If you’ve hired a consultant who delivered a beautiful deck and disappeared, or a “fractional CMO” who talked a big game and produced nothing, your guard should be up.
- My name is on the door: I’m Mike Malloy, the CEO. The buck stops with me. If something isn’t working, you talk directly to me, and I make it right.
- We prove our value first: Throughout our process, especially Express Match™, we introduce you to candidates and provide strategic recommendations before you invest a dollar.
- Lifetime Second Match Free Guarantee™: For as long as you’re an active client, if your fractional executive isn’t the right fit, we find a better one at no additional fee.
- We never disappear: Weekly TPS Reports™, monthly check-ins, and quarterly Strategic Business Reviews with me.
I’m not even sure what role I need to fill first. Can you help me figure that out?
Yes, the free Scalability Audit pinpoints where the gaps are, how severe they are, and what to fix first.
You will know:
- The role you need to fill first.
- The scope of work that role will own.
- The working-style fits your team needs.
- Your Prioritized Action Plan for the next 12 months.
When does hiring a fractional executive make more sense than hiring full-time?
A fractional executive makes more sense when you need the expertise now, but not 40 hours a week and not as a $300k+ bet on one person.
- Immediate coverage: A key team member quit and you need someone now.
- Stuck in the weeds: You’re wearing too many hats.
- Raising capital: You need to look investor-ready fast.
- Underperforming department: A function needs an expert turnaround.
- Budget reality: You can’t afford a full-time executive but need the expertise.
Most growth-stage companies aren’t ready for a full C-suite. Paying $300k+ to one person is a huge bet you’re not ready for yet.
Fractional is the bridge that gets you enterprise-level leadership without enterprise-level risk.
How much do fractional executives cost per month, and how does that compare to a full-time hire?
Most fractional executives run between 4k and 15k per month, depending on seniority, scope, and how much of their time you need. That is the blended monthly investment, and it is the number you plan around.
- Full-time executive: 150k to 300k in salary, plus 25k to 60k in overhead, plus 30k to 90k in recruiter fees. 205k to 450k total, with no guarantee and 17 weeks to hire on average.
- Fractional engagement: Your monthly investment plus a flat 4.5k one-time success fee, backed by our Lifetime Second Match Free Guarantee. Live in as fast as two weeks, and you can increase, decrease, or cancel anytime.
We’re only a $2M company. Are we too small for this?
No, at your stage you probably already have a CEO bottleneck, and the problem is far cheaper to fix now than after it compounds.
the sweet spot is usually above 3 million, but the decision sums up to:
- Your margins: Whether the investment pencils out for your business.
- The time you need: How much of an executive’s week your constraint requires.
What happens if the fractional executive isn’t the right fit?
We activate the Lifetime Second Match Free Guarantee™. Our Client Service team and CEO step in first to understand what’s not working, because sometimes the issue is fixable through coaching or a scope adjustment.
If a replacement is the right call:
- New match: We replace your fractional executive from our network of 750+ at no additional matchmaking cost.
- Interim coverage: Provided if needed.
- Timeline: A replacement is typically ready within 1–4 weeks.
What does the process look like from the first call to having someone start?
The process is three steps, everything up to the match is free, and a fractional executive can be working in your business in as fast as two weeks.
- Day 1: Scalability Audit. 30 minutes. Free. Tell us what’s slowing your growth, with no prep and no pressure. We pinpoint the biggest constraint holding your growth back and show you how fractional leadership can fix it. You decide whether you want to see a draft Statement of Work.
- Day 3 to 7: SOW Alignment Meeting. 30 minutes. Free. We review your draft Statement of Work live on screen, adding, cutting, and adjusting in real time to fit your needs. You walk away with a clear scope, timeline, and investment range, and you keep the SOW to review with your team before anything is signed.
- Day 7 to 14: Interview 2 Vetted Fractional Executives. 2 hours. Free. You meet operators one and two before you commit to anything, with no obligation to hire either one. Your Client Service Manager facilitates, so it’s your interview to run while she keeps the conversation on track. You debrief with her right after and either schedule the kickoff or ask to see who’s behind door number three, on a 4k to 15k per month engagement with a flat 4.5k one-time success fee.
One conversation can save you months of guessing.
