Our business assessments provide a comprehensive, 360-degree view of your organization’s performance, positioning, and potential. We conduct an in-depth analysis of your operations, financials, team structure, technology stack, and market landscape to uncover gaps, inefficiencies, and growth opportunities. This includes a full financial review, operational audit, competitive benchmarking, and strategic risk assessment. The result is a clear, data-backed roadmap that empowers leadership to make informed decisions, prioritize resources, and align the business for scalable, long-term success.
Fractional COO, CTO, CAIO
Melio’s Fractional Executive services provide ongoing, high-impact leadership without the full-time overhead. Whether you need operational excellence, technology guidance, or a forward-thinking AI strategy, our team of seasoned Fractional COOs, CTOs, and Chief AI Officers step in to support your business where it matters most. We work alongside your leadership team to shape long-term strategy, streamline operations, oversee technology implementation, and navigate the rapidly evolving AI landscape. Our approach is hands-on, outcome-driven, and designed to scale with your business — giving you the expertise you need, exactly when you need it.
Intentional System Design
At Melio, we believe systems should serve the business — not the other way around. Our Intentional System Design process goes far beyond basic implementation. We partner with you to deeply understand your operations, workflows, and strategic goals, then guide you through selecting, designing, configuring, and, when needed, integrating the right technology solutions. This is not a one-size-fits-all approach. It’s a tailored, in-depth process built to ensure your systems align with how your business actually runs, enabling efficiency, scalability, and long-term success.
Who we are
At the core of Melio is a team of experienced leaders who have spent their careers building, optimizing, and transforming businesses from the inside out.
Matt West brings a depth of operational and executive leadership that spans multiple roles, including Operations Manager, Service Manager, CIO, Chief of Innovation, CEO, President, General Manager, and Global Customer Account Data Manager. Across every position, Matt has delivered exceptional results — growing profitability and EBITDA at scale, even when revenue remained flat. His track record is a direct reflection of Melio’s belief that businesses should be made better, not just bigger.
Sean Braselton has partnered with Matt for over a decade, bringing expertise in data analysis, financial modeling, strategic planning, trend forecasting, and business system design. His ability to bridge operational insights with technology implementation makes him a key driver behind Melio’s hands-on, results-first approach.
Together, Matt and Sean founded Melio with a clear mission: to help organizations become healthier, more efficient, and more profitable by aligning strategy, systems, and leadership.
FAQS
Why the heck should I trust Melio?
Melio was built by a team of experienced professionals who have spent years growing, scaling, and improving businesses across a range of industries. Our name comes from the Latin word Melior, which means "to make better," and that philosophy is at the core of everything we do. We take a practical, results-driven approach to every engagement, combining strategy with real-world execution. You do not have to trust us right away. We prefer to let our work and our clients' success speak for themselves.
What is strategic planning, and how does it help my business?
Strategic planning is the process of defining your organization’s direction, aligning your team around common goals, and creating a roadmap to achieve measurable outcomes. At Melio, our strategic planning sessions help you step back from the day-to-day to focus on where you're going, why it matters, and how you'll get there.
This process helps your business by:
- Creating clarity around priorities and objectives
- Identifying operational inefficiencies or gaps
- Aligning leadership and teams around a shared vision
- Anticipating risks and preparing for market shifts
- Building a concrete, actionable plan to scale with purpose
Whether you're growing quickly, feeling stuck, or navigating change, strategic planning ensures you're making decisions based on data, insight, and long-term vision — not just reacting to what’s in front of you.
What is an business assessment, and what does it include?
A Melio Business Assessment provides a comprehensive, 360-degree analysis of your organization. We evaluate your operations, financial health, team structure, systems, and competitive landscape to uncover inefficiencies, risks, and untapped opportunities. Our assessment includes:
- Operational process review
- Full financial analysis
- Technology and systems audit
- Competitive and market positioning analysis
- Strategic recommendations for improvement and growth
The outcome is a clear, actionable roadmap that helps you make informed decisions and align your organization for scalable success.
What are fractional CXO services, and how would they work for my business?
Melio’s Fractional CXO services provide experienced executive leadership — without the cost or commitment of a full-time hire. Our team steps in as your Fractional COO, CTO, or Chief AI Officer (CAIO) on a part-time, ongoing basis, fully embedded in your leadership team.
We guide:
- Strategic planning and execution
- Operational efficiency and process development
- Technology roadmaps and system implementation
- AI strategy and digital transformation
You get high-impact leadership with real accountability, tailored to your business stage and growth goals.
What makes Melio different from other consulting firms?
Melio is not a plug-and-play consulting agency — we are strategic partners. What sets us apart:
- Executive-level insight, without full-time overhead
- Deep operational experience, not just theory
- Technology and AI fluency to future-proof your business
- Custom solutions, not templates or generic playbooks
- Hands-on execution support, not just PowerPoint deliverables
We don’t just give advice. We help you build, lead, and grow with confidence.
Do I need a new system or just better use of the one I have?
Not always. That’s exactly why we start with strategy. Our Intentional System Design approach ensures that any system selection, design, or configuration is driven by your business goals and operations. If your current system can be optimized, we’ll make that recommendation. If it’s holding you back, we’ll guide you through selecting and implementing the right solution.
Our goal is to align technology with your business — not force your business to adapt to technology.
