What Alignment Consulting does

Alignment Consulting LLC is a privately held, Sarasota, Florida-based business consulting firm founded in 2019 by Jeffrey Rudd and Hallie Visaggio. The firm delivers advisory, coaching, and fractional executive services built around the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) methodology, including branded offerings such as the Vision Traction Organizer (VTO) for long-range planning, Rapid Implementation Planning (RIP) for quarterly execution, and ongoing one-on-one coaching billed at $150 per hour. The portfolio also includes a Fractional COO engagement model, a Time Management training program priced at $1,200, and a discrete Investment Services vertical (Fund It / Build It / Execute It) under which the firm deploys in-house capital alongside strategic advisory for startups and growth-stage companies.

Beyond the EOS core, Alignment Consulting extends into five specialty verticals — Marketing, E-Commerce, Product Launches, Logistics, and Farming (including cannabis industry licensing) — leveraging the founders' operating backgrounds: Rudd's 18 years as CEO of consumer products manufacturer CMO America and Visaggio's 17 years of operations, logistics, and e-commerce experience with Fortune 500 distributors. Distribution is sales-led and primarily direct, anchored by a free one-hour consultation offer and supported by both in-person delivery at the firm's Sarasota headquarters and virtual sessions for remote clients.

The target customer base is small and medium-sized businesses across diverse industries including manufacturing, biotech, healthcare, financial services, and professional services. Pricing is structured as a mix of recurring hourly coaching retainers, one-time facilitation engagements, and subscription-style fractional COO arrangements. Revenue, headcount growth, funding, and customer counts are not publicly disclosed, and no enterprise contracts or institutional investors are referenced in the available data.
