You’ve built the vision.
Who's growing the business with you?
Being a great founder or CEO doesn't mean mastering every operational skill too. Bringing in senior people who've done this before is how the strongest businesses scale.
Who are you?
We've been in the room with enough founders to know these patterns well.
Read through the four founder types below, or take our 90 second check-in for a quick, honest read.
-
You're still the one holding finance, hiring, product, and the fire of the week. That's normal early on, but if it's still true today, it's usually a sign one or two senior functions need a real owner, not more hours from you.
-
You bring in help once something is already breaking, not before. It works, but it means you're always a step behind, and the person you hire under pressure isn't always the right long term fit.
-
You're the one holding the coordination, the follow ups, the threads only you can untangle. It rarely shows up as a line item, but it's real work, and it's taking up a senior seat, and you to focus on growing your business.
-
You're moving fast, and structure hasn't caught up. That's fine for a while, but past a certain point, nothing is documented or repeatable, and growth starts to cost more than it should.
You probably recognised yourself in at least one of these. That's normal, but there's an alternative to a full time C suite hire, or an expensive consultant.
This is where Blaze comes in
We have 20 founding members: : Swiss, female fractional leaders who've done this before, at exactly this stage. They step in part time, but stay closely embedded in your business, giving you senior expertise without the cost or commitment of a full time hire.
Behind them sits an extended network of 50+ more fractional leaders.
All ready when you are.
01
Done it before
Blaze's network is fractional CFOs, COOs, and CMOs who've done this exact stage at other scaleups. A fractional CFO who's already watched three companies through a raise knows what breaks next.
02
Ready fast
Blaze introduces someone in weeks, not months, for the days you actually need them. A fractional head of growth two days a week on GTM, no year-long hiring process first.
03
A growth partner
Blaze stays close through the first year of your mandate. And if a new gap opens later, we help you find that next fractional leader too. One relationship, not a single transaction.
