Episode Synopsis
This is an Open Coffee for Fractionals session — part of my coaching practice.This session went long and deep — and hit a lot of notes on what it actually means to run a fractional business.Karl Schmidt, Lukas Czerwinski, Sam Taggart, Travis Russi, and Russ Waddell all joined. We talked about: client acquisition when your network runs out why founders say “CTO” when they mean “coder for equity” how to pitch retainers without selling hours pricing advisory work by value, not time targeting Crunchbase-funded startups who still don’t have technical leads nontraditional fractional work — from roofing businesses to shadow CTO roles how chance meetings and birthday parties lead to 5-year clientsNo slides. No pitches. No agenda. Just honest conversation.📅 Recorded May 19, 2025 🎙️ Hosted by David RaistrickJoin a future session | Explore the For Fractionals community
