Icon Partner
Tap into the right experts when you need it most
A Strategic Partner for Business Owners Who Want More Than Advice
Fractional executive services and management consulting with skin in the game.
Running a business can be lonely at the top. Icon Partner provides hands-on strategic support — not consultants who deliver a report and disappear, but operators who roll up their sleeves and help you execute. We take equity or revenue share because we believe in what we build together.
Who Icon Partner Is For
Icon Partner works with:
- Owners who feel stretched thin and need strategic support
- Businesses preparing for exit and wanting to maximize value
- Companies at an inflection point — growth, transition, or succession
- Owners who want a partner with skin in the game, not just advice
Not right for: Companies looking for the cheapest consulting option or those who want someone to tell them what to do rather than help them figure it out.
