I found my current CFO through the Shiny platform over a year ago. He is still with my company and continues to help us navigate the complexities of asset management. We have multiple fractional executives on our team, which helps us utilize amazing talent while keeping costs flexible.

@william_stringer Thank you, Will, for being one of the earliest supporters and users of Shiny!!

I'm a happy customer of Shiny! We used Shiny over a year ago when they had very little software to place our current CFO. I'm pleased with the progress they've made on their platform, and I'm very satisfied with the quality of our CFO's work. I trust Shiny's vetting process and it makes hiring great talent more feasible for smaller startups like us. Thanks Shiny team!

@kaifaust Thank you, Kai, for being one of the earliest customers to have faith in us. You rock!
Kevin Smith
Love the idea and definitely see the need! As a fractional executive (CPO) who'd love to be a part of this, I can't wait to be given the green light to join! :-)
Jacob Sheldon
@kmsmith70 Thanks, Kevin! Stay tuned for a CPO community soon 👀

@jacob_sheldon Awesome news! Can't wait!

Great product! Sourcing top-tier talent is a big problem that nobody has been able to solve effectively, hope this is the change that everybody needed.
Jacob Sheldon
@amartya_bhargava Thanks so much, Amartya!! To us it is clear that a massive percentage of top-tier talent is shifting to independent work, making it easier to hire fractional than full-time.
Claudiu Dascalescu
This sounds like an awesome idea. Startups need the experience, but it's not always the need for full time. Will give it a try at Archbee 3.0
Jacob Sheldon
@dascalescu Thanks so much, Claudiu! And congrats on your launch today :)
David Shi
Shiny is an awesome product - so much time and trial and error can be saved by bringing on a fractional executive who has done it before.
Jacob Sheldon
@davidzshi2 Thanks, David! Having experienced executives on your team makes a massive difference.
Kasey Jones
Congrats, team! Love the platform and am honored to be listed as a fractional CMO on there. Really excited to see how you grow. You're really providing a seriously valuable solution to the very common startup and business challenge of getting access to senior talent without paying full-time salaries.
Jacob Sheldon
@abetterjones It's great to have you in the community, Kasey!

Congrats on the launch! Fractional C-suite is going to be a huge trend this year.
