Fractional COO Services
Unlock Your Business’s Potential with a Fractional Chief Operating Officer
I’m Nicole Bernardo, the owner and operator of Cornerstone Virtual Partners. I offer Fractional COO Services to help small and medium-sized businesses like yours achieve their full growth potential without the overhead costs of hiring a full-time executive.
With over 25 years of operational experience, I specialize in streamlining your business operations, enhancing team efficiency, and implementing scalable systems that set your business up for sustainable success.
Is Your Business Struggling with Operations?
A Fractional COO Can Help
As businesses grow, they often face challenges related to scaling operations, managing projects, and optimizing resources. One of the benefits a fractional COO offers is the ability to address these challenges by offering experienced leadership without the commitment of a full-time hire.
Whether you need strategic oversight, process improvements, or help with day-to-day management, I bring the expertise to simplify operations and drive business results.
Common Operational Efficiency Challenges:
- Inefficient processes that slow down growth
- Lack of strategic direction and leadership
- Struggling to scale effectively while managing day-to-day operations
- Project management bottlenecks
- Financial inefficiencies and waste
When you hire a fractional COO to work alongside you, you gain years of business expertise without waiting all that time. As a trusted member of your Fractional leadership team, I will collaborate with you to provide operational support and a roadmap for success to achieve your business goals.

-Kim Laughlin
Cultural Apex Coaching
"Just when the demands of my rapidly growing business threatened to drown me, Nicole came to the rescue! In short order she hired an adminstrative assistant to take over a long list of tedious office tasks, thus enabling me to focus on client work and passion projects; created standard operating procedures to make all our systems go smoother; and hired several other new employees to fill out our team for the season. Throughout this process her infectiously positive, energetic, warm but no-nonsense demeanor kept us moving briskly and painlessly through a mountain of tasks. I finally feel like I can take a deep breath again!"
