What a fractional editorial design consultant owns

A fractional editorial design consultant is brought in for judgement on a specific question — an audit, a diagnosis, a recommendation, or a plan your team then executes. The deliverable is usually a written argument plus the sequence to act on it.

Consultant versus the roles either side of it

Unlike a manager or specialist, a consultant is not primarily there to produce ongoing output. Their leverage is in framing the problem correctly and in having seen the same situation elsewhere.

What does a fractional editorial design consultant do?

A fractional editorial design consultant does the same job as a full-time one, at a fraction of the week — typically one to three days — for companies that need the capability but not the headcount. Consulting is fractional by nature — engagements are short, defined by a question, and typically conclude in four to ten weeks rather than continuing indefinitely.
