Questions, answered

What to know before you subscribe

Is this only for C-suite executives?

No. Fractional Pulse covers qualified fractional professionals across functions, from independent specialists and operators through directors, VPs, and C-suite leaders. It does not include generic gig or task-based freelance work.

What makes a role qualified?

It must be a genuine professional role with a fractional, interim, part-time, portfolio, or similarly flexible engagement. We verify the source and screen out generic gig-board noise.

Where does the compensation data come from?

From employer-posted ranges. Hourly, monthly, and annual compensation stays in its original unit, and market medians show the sample size.

Are funding signals companies that are definitely hiring?

No. A public funding filing is a reason to research a company, not proof of hiring intent. Fractional Pulse labels these as research signals and links to the source filing.

How often will I hear from you?

Twice a week. Monday covers qualified opportunities, compensation, and market news. Wednesday covers earlier company signals.

Is Fractional Pulse free?

Yes. The Monday and Wednesday briefings are free, and you can unsubscribe at any time.

A note from the founder

Finding your next engagement shouldn’t be a second job

If you work fractionally, finding the next engagement can be a full-time job. The useful signals are scattered across job boards, company news, public filings, and private networks.

I built Fractional Pulse to handle the searching and filtering for us. It helps me find potential customers for Subagent GTM, and I’m sharing it with you.

The goal is simple: less time sorting noise, so you have more time talking to companies and finding the next role.
