The Free Agent- Why our Partners like Serial Entrepreneurs Care

Posted 7 years ago

Partnering with Serial Entrepreneurs to Accelerate Business Results

Partnering with Companies or Serial Entrepreneurs in Need

We partner with companies in need—these needs range from assisting with a corporate turnaround to helping to ensure the company does not lose its current trajectory. Our customers don’t have the time or interest to wait; their needs are urgent, and they need to maximize ROI immediately. Our value proposition is centered around this understanding, accelerating our partner’s results by bringing the right “Free Agents” like serial entrepreneurs at the right time.

The Pedigree of  The Free Agents

There is no on-the-job training at the Free Agent, which is why we look for a specific pedigree. The majority of our Free Agents have run entire organizations for Fortune 100 companies, have been serial entrepreneurs, highly specialized executives, career consultants, or recently exited.  All, however, are ready to hit the ground running and ultimately work for you. We utilize our vetted network of SMEs to reduce time to market and costs, ultimately increasing quality and peace of mind that the job will be done right the first time.

Flexibility in Engagement Durations

Flexibility is another key component of our offering and keeps our customers returning. Our engagement durations can range from two weeks to nine (plus) months, with the ability to scale up or down as needed.  This agile approach to engaging was designed to overcome consultant complacency in order to maximize value, decreasing costs and time to market along the way.  We focus on a multitude of disciplines to ensure we are a one-stop shop to fulfill your needs (e.g., Finance, Technology, Sales and Marketing, Strategy, and Operations).  Our automated platform takes the guesswork out of filling missing critical gaps.  Bottom line- our customers care because we help them when the time frame is tight, and nothing short of precision is acceptable.  Ultimately, we are an accelerator of results for our partners.

About The Free Agent

The Free Agent utilizes a vetted bench of battle-tested experts who work directly with companies in hyper-growth. Simply put, we provide the right strategic experts at precisely the right time to accelerate results. If you are interested in learning more or joining our vetted and curated platform, please do not hesitate to reach out. We live and breathe the gig economy and are always interested in beginning a dialogue.
