When things start to slow down
You built something real. The brand is strong, the product is good, the team is growing.
But somewhere along the way, running the business started feeling heavier than building it.
-
decisions take longer than they should
-
ownership becomes unclear
-
teams are busy, but output feels inconsistent
-
founders get pulled back into daily operations
-
costs increase without clear return
This isn't a strategy problem. It's an organisational one. And it won't fix itself.
What I focus on
I step in to identify what is actually slowing the business down and fix it fast.
This typically means:
-
clarifying ownership and decision-making
-
removing operational bottlenecks
-
improving team structure and output
-
restoring speed and focus
-
helping founders step out of day-to-day noise
No generic frameworks.
No unnecessary complexity.
Just fixing what needs to be fixed.
Some engagements start with one specific problem. Others grow from there. Either way, you see results from week one.
Why me specifically
I'm Cas Peters - Business Fixer and Fractional COO for founder-led companies in fashion, media and creative.
I've spent 30+ years inside these dynamic businesses. Not advising from the outside, but running things from the inside. Including 11 years as COO at Filling Pieces, where I led the organisation through multiple growth phases, reduced operational costs by 24% and took customer satisfaction from 3.4 to 4.5 on Trustpilot.
I know how these businesses work, what breaks under pressure, and how to fix it without losing what makes your brand yours.
Recent work includes:
Building a complete HR operating system for The New Originals - restructuring roles, ownership and performance management - resulting in 31% savings on staff costs. Outsourced warehouse operations, reducing fulfillment costs by 27%. Aligned leadership on strategy and execution through a two-day offsite.
Set up business development structure and financial framework for a creative agency.
How it works
Every engagement starts with a specific problem - not a lengthy intake process or a vague retainer. We identify what's actually causing the friction, agree on a concrete approach, and get to work:
01
Free intake call
You tell me what's not working. I tell you whether and how I can fix it.
No obligation.
02
Problem diagnosis
I assess the situation, identify the root cause and propose a concrete plan. Defined scope, clear outcome.
03
Hands-on implementation
I work from the inside to build and implement the solution. You regain speed, clarity and control.
If something in your business keeps not getting done - let's talk.
