Anais Babajanian
Fractional COO | Business & Leadership Coach

Running your business shouldn’t mean burning out or capping growth. I help owners break free from the bottleneck cycle by streamlining operations, empowering teams, and building clarity that fuels sustainable growth.

Whether through coaching, an operations audit, or ongoing fractional support, I bring the structure and resources you need to turn your business into one that works for you — not the other way around.

How We Can Work Together

Every business needs support at a different level. Whether you’re looking for a deep operational assessment, ongoing leadership, targeted coaching, or team-wide development, my services are designed to meet your firm where it is — and help you build the structure, systems, and skills you need to scale.

Business Operations Audit

Uncover what’s holding your business back. Through a deep-dive analysis of your people, processes, and systems, you’ll walk away with a clear picture of your operational gaps and a 90-day roadmap to strengthen your foundation, improve team performance, and set your firm up for scalable growth.

Fractional COO Retainer

Turn strategy into action with ongoing leadership and execution. As your Fractional COO, I step in to streamline operations, build accountability, and lead the implementation of systems and structures that allow your business to grow without relying on you to hold it all together.

business coaching

Whether you’re leading a team for the first time or navigating the challenges of scaling your business, coaching provides targeted one-on-one support to help you make the internal shifts you need to become a stronger leader, improve decision-making, and manage your team more effectively.

Leadership Development Workshop

From communication and delegation to AI upskilling and accountability, my workshops are designed to equip your team with the leadership and strategic thinking skills they need to operate at a higher level. Each session is tailored to your business, creating immediate impact and long-term cultural change.

My Approach to Sustainable Growth

Scaling a business isn’t about doing more — it’s about doing what matters most. Whether I’m auditing your operations, stepping in as a Fractional COO, coaching you directly, or equipping your team through training, my approach focuses on building the foundation your business needs to grow without relying on you to hold it all together.

I help business owners move from reactive firefighting to proactive leadership by focusing on three key pillars:
  1. Clarity: You can’t fix what you can’t see. We start by identifying the real bottlenecks — in your systems, team, and structure — and uncovering where inefficiencies, gaps, or misalignments are holding your business back.
  2. Structure: Growth requires infrastructure. Together, we design and implement processes, systems, and accountability rhythms that streamline operations and ensure the business runs smoothly — with or without you in the day-to-day.
  3. Leadership: Even the best systems fail without the right people behind them. I help you strengthen your leadership team, build a culture of ownership, and develop the skills and confidence you and your managers need to guide the business forward.

Why Clients Choose Me

I don’t approach operations as a consultant who drops in with a binder of recommendations and leaves. I approach it as a partner who’s been in your shoes — someone who knows firsthand what it takes to build a business that doesn’t depend on you to survive.

Before starting my consulting practice, I grew and sold my family insurance agency for 3× revenue after increasing profits by 200%. That experience taught me what most business owners eventually realize: growth isn’t just about big ideas — it’s about building the systems, structure, and leadership that allow those ideas to scale.

I combine that real-world experience with the technical expertise of a CPA and the people-focused perspective of a leadership coach. That means I understand the financial impact of every operational decision, know how to create processes that actually work, and can help your team rise to the level your growth requires.

Clients choose to work with me because I don’t just create plans — I help them build the kind of business they set out to run: profitable, scalable, and no longer reliant on their constant involvement.
