Growth strategy consultant · Noël Tarquinii

A growth strategy consultant who builds it. Then runs it.

You built something that works and you want more of it. I've sat in the CEO, COO, CAO and CHRO seats. I build the growth plan with you, run it and hand you the numbers.

The straight answer

What a growth strategy consultant actually does

A growth strategy consultant figures out where your next revenue comes from and what's in the way. The offer, the price, the channel, the follow-up, who closes. The good ones stay long enough to make it work. That part is where a lot of consultants stop. It's where I start.

Where deals stallWhat happens after somebody raises their hand, and where the money leaks.
Who closesWhen it isn't you. The playbook, then the first sales hire.

What people ask first

What does a growth strategy consultant do?

A growth strategy consultant figures out where your next revenue comes from and what's in the way: the offer, the price, the channel, the follow-up and who closes. The good ones stay long enough to make it work. That second part is where a lot of consultants stop. It's where I start.

How much does a growth strategy consultant cost?

Published 2026 consulting rates run about $150 to $500 an hour, and retainers run about $2,000 to $20,000 a month. I price up front instead. The 45-Day Revenue Build starts at $10,000, Consigliere Advisory is $5,000 a month and a 90-minute Private Strategy Session is $2,000. No hourly billing.

Do I need a growth consultant or a fractional COO?

If the question is where the next deals come from, that's growth. If the question is who runs the business when it isn't you, that's operations. Usually it's both and they're tangled together. I've sat in the COO seat, so I don't make you pick. The build covers both.

How is this different from a marketing agency?

An agency gets you attention and stops at leads. I work on what happens after somebody raises their hand: follow-up, pricing, who closes and the first sales hire. Then I report the numbers to you every week.

How fast will I see results?

You'll see the system working inside 45 days, because I run it and send you the numbers every week. Revenue follows your sales cycle. At a firm I run operations and marketing for, sales went from $19.3M to $32.0M in 24 months. It started with a build like this one.

Who do you work with?

Owners, founders, CEOs and top producers whose business already makes $25K or more a month and who want more of it. Software, home services, agencies, practices, teams of agents. The industry doesn't matter and neither does headcount.

Can you help a SaaS or tech company grow?

Yes. I built and run my own software platform, and it hit 200%+ growth in 6 months on systems I built myself. Demos, trials, follow-up, the pipeline and getting sales out of the founder's head.

How do I start?

Tell me what you want built. If it's a fit, you pick a time for a 30-minute call with your numbers on screen. If you only have one big decision in front of you, book the 90-minute Private Strategy Session for $2,000.

Weighing a fractional COO instead? Here's what that costs and when you need one.

Tell me what you want built.

A few quick questions. If it's a fit, you pick a time for a 30-minute call right away. One seat per market per industry.
