Working with Joey
Who is Joey Zoccali?
Joey Zoccali is the operator behind the 90-day Fix & Scale framework. He works with owner-led businesses from Clearwater, Florida — firms, practices, agencies, operators. He is also a Clockwork Certified Partner™ and Certified Fractional COO. The practice is Joey Zoccali Coaching. The front door is the Business Diagnostic at joeyzoccali.com/diagnostic.
What is the 90-day Fix & Scale framework?
Fix & Scale is Joey's 90-day method: name the binding constraint, install the fix, then scale. Foundation, delegation, accountability, and systems. It is a sprint, not an open-ended retainer. Start with the diagnostic on this site or read the page at joeyzoccali.com/fix-and-scale. Clockwork is the operating seat if the company later needs a standing operator.
Does Joey Zoccali only work with trades businesses?
No. The brand is owner-led businesses — firms, practices, agencies, operators. Trades Alliance Groups is the trades-only room. Fix & Scale is the 90-day framework for any owner-led company, not a trades-only program.
How do I start working with Joey Zoccali?
Take the Business Diagnostic — 40 questions, 8 constraints, about 7 minutes. It names the binding constraint. Most owners then run the 90-day Fix & Scale framework. If the company needs a standing operator, that conversation is Clockwork / Fractional COO. Book from joeyzoccali.com or call (727) 605-4090. Clearwater, Florida, and remote.
90 days
Fix & Scale
What is Fix & Scale?
A 90-day program to find the binding constraint in an owner-led business and install the fix. For any industry — professional services, trades, agencies, operators. Not a trades-only program. Start with the diagnostic on this site or open the app at app.fixandscaleyourbusiness.com.
How long is Fix & Scale?
Ninety days. Named constraint, custom roadmap, implementation support, and a scoreboard. It is a sprint, not an open-ended retainer. If the company needs a standing operator after that, that conversation is Clockwork.
Is Fix & Scale only for trades?
No. Fix & Scale is for any owner-led business. Trades Alliance Groups is the trades-only peer room. If you run a practice, an agency, or an operator company, Fix & Scale is still the 90-day install.

What is the difference between 1:1 coaching and Clockwork?
1:1 coaching is a private weekly or bi-weekly seat with Joey — strategy, leadership, follow-through. Clockwork / Fractional COO is the operating seat: systems, cadence, owner replacement so the business runs without you in the middle. Coaching is the conversation. Clockwork is the install.
What is Fix & Scale versus a fractional COO?
Fix & Scale is a 90-day sprint: name the constraint, install the fix, then scale. Fractional COO is an ongoing operating seat. Most owners start with the diagnostic. If the constraint is a 90-day install, that is Fix & Scale. If the company needs a standing operator, that is Clockwork.
Is CXO-OS the same as 1:1 coaching?
No. CXO-OS is a program and operating system for CEOs, CXOs, and fractional leaders — phases, cadence, tools. 1:1 coaching is the private seat with Joey. CXO-OS is the system around the seat, not a renamed coaching retainer.
How much is Virtual Joey?
Virtual Joey is $49 a month. It is a live AI coach trained on Joey's operating work — between sessions, 24/7. Cancel anytime. It is not the gold chat bubble on this site. The seat is at virtualjoey.my-ai.coach.
Private
1:1 Coaching
What is 1:1 coaching with Joey Zoccali?
A private weekly or bi-weekly seat. Strategy, leadership, the decisions that pile up, and the follow-through that dies between sessions. Not a course. Not a group. Not a cheerleader. You and Joey on the actual business.
How often are coaching sessions?
Weekly or bi-weekly. The cadence is set to the week, not a canned curriculum. Direct access when the week blows up is part of the seat — not a recap email that goes unread.
Is this executive coaching?
No. This is 1:1 coaching for owner-led businesses. CXO-OS is the program for CEOs, CXOs, and fractional leaders who need a system around the seat. Do not mix the two.
The seat
Clockwork / Fractional COO
What does a fractional COO actually do?
A fractional chief operating officer is the operating seat of the company on a part-time, senior basis — cadence, decision rights, systems, and the team that carries them. Not a consultant who leaves a report. Not a coach who only talks mindset. Joey sits in the work until the business can run the week without the owner in the middle of it.
How is a fractional COO different from a business coach?
A coach asks better questions. A fractional COO owns outcomes in operations. Joey coaches, and also installs the scorecards, meeting rhythm, delegation map, and the Queen Bee Role so the company has an operating system — not just a more motivated owner.
Are you a Clockwork Certified Partner™?
Yes. Joey Zoccali is a Clockwork Certified Partner™ and a Certified Fractional COO, based in Clearwater, Florida. You are not being sent to a directory. The Clockwork System™ is how he runs the operating seat in owner-led companies — your team, your numbers, your week.
Is Clockwork the same as EOS or Scaling Up?
No. EOS and Scaling Up are frameworks many owners have already tried. Clockwork is built around owner replacement: the Queen Bee Role, the owner's time mix, captured systems, and the four-week vacation as the test. If a prior framework sat in a binder, that is a delivery problem — not a reason to buy a fifth binder.
Who is fractional COO work for?
Owner-led companies that already sell something real — typically a team of a few people up through a few dozen — where the owner is still the bottleneck. Professional practices, founder-run firms, agencies, and operators in the $500K to $20M range. If you are pre-revenue, start with the diagnostic, not a fractional seat.
Do you work in Tampa Bay only, or remote?
Both. The practice is based in Clearwater, Florida. Most fractional COO work runs remote with a standing cadence. On-site days happen when the work needs a room, a warehouse, or a crew — not as theater.
What is the first step to hire a fractional COO?
The Business Diagnostic at joeyzoccali.com/diagnostic. We find the real constraint — not the symptom — and decide whether a fractional COO seat, Fix & Scale, or another container is the next move. You do not buy a title. You buy a diagnosis, then an install.
Will this dump The Clockwork System™ on my team as homework?
No. Certified delivery means Joey uses the method inside the engagement. Your team gets a business that runs. They do not get an 11-module homework packet. If a tool from the system earns its keep in your company, it gets used. If it doesn't, it doesn't.

What is Stop the Struggle?
A live workshop for owners doing real revenue who are still the bottleneck. You fill the diagnostic. You bring it. We find the one constraint you cannot handle — before pricing, hiring, or marketing. Joey Zoccali with Todd Masters when the room is set.
How do I register for a workshop or cohort?
Name and email on the signup form at joeyzoccali.com/events. Pick Stop the Struggle or the next Building Your Edge cohort. When the date is posted, you hear first. Or call (727) 605-4090.
Front door
Diagnostic
What is the Joey Zoccali Business Diagnostic?
Forty questions across eight constraints. About seven minutes. You get a report that names the one constraint binding the business, what it is costing, and what to address first. Free. No credit card. Built for owner-operators doing roughly $500K–$7.5M.
How long does the diagnostic take?
About seven minutes for the questions. The report is generated when you finish. It is not a personality quiz and not a pitch deck. If you want to be told what you already think, skip it.
What happens after the diagnostic?
You see the binding constraint. Then you book a constraint call or pick a program — Clockwork, Fix & Scale, or 1:1. The diagnostic is the front door. It is not the engagement.
