Flux COO was founded by Michael Buescher to give owners something rare:
a seasoned operator who has actually sat in their chair.

Michael’s career began in the financial sector just before Y2K. He went on to found and sell one company, turning those gains into a larger-scale corporation… which subsequently evaporated in the financial crisis.

Realizing that his experience could help other companies, he devoted nearly two decades to leading operations, client delivery, and growth for agencies with Fortune 100 companies in their roster. He regularly worked across functions, delivering the same sense of service and professionalism to marketing assistants as to the C-suite. He worked directly with the owners of the agencies and often their biggest clients. Eventually, this included helping steer one agency through a sale to a private equity firm, where he led the due diligence process, in addition to consulting on negotiations and transitions. He knows the operational, financial, and human realities of a transition because he has lived all three.

Behind Flux COO is a network of trusted consultants (many of them current and former business owners themselves), who are paired with the needs of each engagement. While Michael is always available for any Flux COO client’s business, he may not always be the subject-matter expert in a specific area. In those instances, an expert is added to the team to ensure the best results.

The team is always shared before we begin any work.
