Fractional talent · Consulting
Consultants sell their time and expertise, but too much of that time gets consumed by proposal writing, client onboarding, scheduling, and deliverable formatting, work that doesn't require your billable rate. Nacho connects consulting professionals with US-based assistants and specialists who understand the cadence of client engagements, retainer management, and the constant context-switching that comes with managing multiple accounts at once.
The challenge
01
Every new engagement starts with a proposal or statement of work that has to be researched, formatted, and customized, work that can take hours and pulls you away from billable client time. When you're responding to multiple opportunities at once, this bottleneck compounds fast.
02
Consulting clients expect responsive, organized communication: status updates, meeting recaps, follow-up action items, but keeping up with that across several active engagements is difficult to maintain consistently without dedicated support.
03
Final reports, slide decks, and client-facing documents often require significant formatting and polish before they're ready to present. This is skilled but time-consuming work that doesn't need to sit on your plate.
04
CRM updates, LinkedIn outreach, conference follow-ups, and pipeline tracking are critical to keeping the firm growing, but they're easy to deprioritize when active client work takes over, until the pipeline runs dry.
How it works
Nacho's model is designed around the variable workload that's normal in consulting, some months you're heads-down in a major engagement, others you're in full business development mode. Your dedicated Client Success Manager builds a Strategic Delegation Plan at onboarding that maps your recurring tasks, client workflow needs, and surge periods to the right mix of talent. With a flexible Talent Budget and hours that roll over month to month, you're not paying for capacity you don't use during slower periods. And because our assistants work across Executive Assistant, Specialist, and Fractional Executive tiers, you can get help with everything from calendar management to financial modeling without switching vendors.

Descript What we've learned
Independent consultants and small consulting firms operate with very little administrative infrastructure, most of the back-office work falls directly on the consultant or a single operations person. The work is highly client-specific, which means support staff need to get up to speed quickly on different industries, terminology, and deliverable formats with each new engagement. Confidentiality is also a real concern; client data, competitive analysis, and internal strategy documents require discretion and clear information-handling protocols. For boutique and solo consulting practices especially, the challenge isn't just finding help: it's finding help that can work with minimal supervision, adapt to shifting priorities mid-engagement, and represent the firm professionally in client-facing communications when needed.
We've worked with consultants including Brighter Strategies, Deborah Offner, High Flying Strategy, and 2 others.
