- SOUND FAMILIAR?

01

LEGAL

You're closing deals on handshake agreements. Legal can wait — until it can't.

02

HR & PEOPLE

You don't have an HR function. One bad hire will cost you six months.

03

GTM SALES

The founder is still the head of sales, ops, and everything else.

04

DELIVERY

You're delivering — but only because you're personally holding it together.

05

ALL AREAS

You know what needs building. You just don't have the people to build it.

Most startups and scale-ups don't fail on ideas.
They fail because the right expertise arrived too late — or never at all.

- WHAT WE DO

The expertise you need.

Without the hire.

Most early-stage and growing businesses don't need a full-time Chief Legal Officer, HR Director, or VP of Sales. What they need is someone who's done it before — who can step in, build what's missing, fix what's broken, and hand it over properly.

CGI puts experienced operators directly inside your business. People who've structured legal frameworks from scratch, hired the first 50 people, built sales engines from zero, and delivered client work under real pressure. Not advisors. Operators. People who own it.

You get the function you need — built right, built fast — without the full-time headcount, the equity discussion, or the six-month search.

- PRACTICE AREAS

Where we operate.

Whether you're building these functions for the first time or fixing ones that aren't working — our operators have been here before. They know what good looks like, and they know how to get there fast.

Legal

"We haven't set up proper contracts. We're running on trust and handshakes — and it's starting to feel risky."

Most early companies have no legal foundation at all — no proper contracts, no IP protection, no clear entity structure. We build it from scratch or fix what's there, fast. From incorporation and supplier agreements to regulatory compliance — a senior legal operator who protects what you're building before it becomes a problem

CONTRACTS - COMPLIANCE - ENTITY SETUP - IP PROTECTION

01

HR & People

"The founder is still making every hire. There's no process, no structure, and the wrong person just cost us three months."

Before you have an HR function, every hire is a gamble and every exit is painful. We build the people infrastructure your business needs — hiring process, onboarding, culture frameworks, and the systems that retain talent as you scale — so growth doesn't break the team that got you here.

FIRST HIRES - TALENT - CULTURE - ORG DESIGN - RETENTION

02

GTM & Customer Success

"Sales is all founder-led. We have no pipeline, no playbook, and no idea how to repeat what's worked."

We build the full revenue engine from the ground up — defining your ideal customer, building a repeatable sales motion, and creating the customer success function that keeps clients, grows their spend, and turns them into your most powerful references. Because the businesses that scale are the ones whose clients sell for them.

Services & Delivery

"Delivery works because the founder is in every project. The moment we step back, things fall apart."

When delivery depends on one person, it doesn't scale. We build the frameworks, processes, and quality standards that let your team deliver consistently without you — so you can take on more clients without the wheels coming off. From service design to client success operations, we make delivery a competitive advantage.

- HOW IT WORKS

Fast in.
Real output.

No 90-day onboarding. No hand-holding. You brief us, we match you with the right operator, and they step in and move.

01

---

Tell us what's broken

One direct conversation — no forms, no decks, no discovery theatre. Just tell us where you're stuck and what you need to move past it.

02

---

We match, you meet

We connect you with an operator who has done this exact thing — in your stage, your sector, your market. You'll know immediately whether it fits.

03

---

They step in and deliver

Structured scope. Clear output. Your expert operates inside your business — not from the outside. They leave when the job's done, or stay as long as you need.

- WHY FRACTIONAL

Better than hiring.
Better than waiting.

For early-stage businesses, the real alternative isn't a full-time hire — it's doing nothing and hoping the gap doesn't become a crisis. For scale-ups, it's watching a six-month search while the problem compounds. Neither works.

GOING WITHOUT / FULL-TIME HIRE
No legal structure until something goes wrong — and then it's expensive
Founder-led everything — a bottleneck that gets worse as you grow
4–6 month hire process while the business waits and the problem grows
Full salary, benefits, and equity from day one — before you've validated the need
Wrong hire costs 12–18 months and leaves you further behind than before
CGI FRACTIONAL EXPERT
Function built from scratch or fixed — operating inside your business in days
Founder gets their time back — with a senior operator who owns the workstream
No search, no delay — matched and delivering from week one
Scoped engagement — you pay for what you need, when you need it
People who've done exactly this before — at companies at exactly your stage

CGI

- LET'S TALK

Don't
build
blind.
Get the right
people in.

Whether you're a founder doing everything yourself, or a scale-up with functions that need fixing — tell us where the gap is. We'll be straight with you about whether we can help, and if we can, we'll move fast.
