Hello, I am Elle!

The Fractional COO Behind Sustainable Growth

Elle Sacher is not a traditional consultant. She is a seasoned Fractional COO who partners with female entrepreneurs and growing businesses to bring structure, clarity, and accountability to the operational side of growth.

After spending nearly two decades building and leading operations inside scaling organizations, Elle saw a consistent pattern: founders were carrying the weight of everything. Vision lived in their heads, execution depended on them, and growth created more chaos instead of freedom.

Sacher Consulting was built to solve that problem.

Elle steps into your business as a true operational partner, bridging the gap between big ideas and day-to-day execution. Through hands-on leadership, practical systems, and data-driven decision making, she helps founders step out of the weeds and into sustainable growth.

Her philosophy is simple:
Structure creates freedom. When the right systems and accountability are in place, founders can stop putting out fires and start leading with confidence.

How it works

The 4-Step Operating Partnership

1.

Discovery & Clarity Session

We start with a focused discovery session to understand how your business actually operates today. We uncover what’s working, what’s broken, and where you’re stuck.

This is not a surface-level conversation. We identify operational bottlenecks, leadership gaps, and growth constraints so we can build the right solution from day one.

2.

Operational Assessment & Roadmap

Based on what we uncover, I create a clear, prioritized operational roadmap. This outlines exactly what needs to be built, fixed, or streamlined to support your growth.

You’ll know what matters most, what can wait, and where your time and energy should be focused for maximum impact.

3.

System Design & Implementation

This is where things shift from planning to execution.

Together, we design and implement the systems your business needs, including workflows, roles, accountability, and KPIs. I work alongside you and your team to ensure these systems are adopted and actually used.

No binders. No shelfware.

4.

Execution, Leadership & Momentum

As your Fractional COO, I stay involved to guide execution, lead operational alignment, and remove roadblocks as they arise.

The result is a business that runs with clarity, consistency, and confidence—without everything depending on you.

This is hands-on operational leadership designed to create lasting change.

FAQ - Frequently asked questions

  • A Fractional COO provides operational leadership and strategic support—without the full-time salary. I help law firm owners and small businesses streamline processes, manage teams, and build sustainable growth, all on a flexible, part-time basis.

  • If you feel stuck in the weeds, your team lacks accountability, or your business is growing but your systems aren’t keeping up—it’s time for operational support. I help bring clarity, structure, and momentum to businesses that need it.

  • While I specialize in supporting small law firms, I also work with service-based businesses that face similar operational challenges. If you’re unsure, let’s have a discovery call to see if we’re a good fit.

  • Many clients see improvements within the first 30 to 60 days. Sustainable, long-term growth takes time, but we’ll focus on quick wins and building momentum from day one.

  • The biggest difference is the level of support. The Essential Package offers light, strategic guidance, the Growth Accelerator provides deeper, hands-on operational help, and the Executive Partner Package offers full-scale operational leadership.

  • That’s okay! I also offer project-based consulting and strategic planning sessions. We can start small and build from there.
