About Fractional Link
Creating connection, credibility, and community for Fractional Directors
Fractional Link was founded by Danielle Thompson, The Potentialist, to bring trust, structure, and visibility to one of the fastest-growing professional spaces in the world — Fractional Leadership.
As a long-time supporter of Fractional and Independent Directors through Goldspun Support, Danielle saw a growing gap: exceptional talent working independently, but without a central place to connect, collaborate, or validate their expertise.
So she built it.
Why Fractional Link exists
The Fractional Director model is powerful — experienced leaders bringing big-company expertise into businesses that need it most.
But it’s also new, unregulated, and often misunderstood.
Fractional Directors are out there doing world-class work, but without the recognition, credibility, or infrastructure that traditional roles take for granted.
Fractional Link was created to change that — to give Fractional Leaders a trusted hub where they can be seen, verified, and supported.
What Fractional Link offers
Fractional Link connects and elevates the Fractional Director community through:
Verification & Credibility — A professional standard and verification badge that signals trust to clients and peers.
Connection & Collaboration — A curated network where Fractional Directors can find opportunities, partnerships, and support.
Visibility & Growth — A platform that raises the profile of Fractional talent and connects them with verified suppliers and businesses.
Resources & Learning — Ongoing access to training, templates, and insights designed for Fractional success.
The bigger picture
Fractional Link isn’t just about verification — it’s about validation.
It’s about creating a professional identity and infrastructure for a new generation of leaders who want to work differently.
It’s about belonging — a place where independent professionals no longer have to go it alone.
Through Fractional Link, Danielle is building not just a directory, but a movement — one that champions collaboration over competition, and purpose over hierarchy.
Who it’s for
Fractional Directors — CMOs, CFOs, COOs, CROs, and CPOs working across industries who want visibility, credibility, and connection.
Verified Suppliers — Trusted partners who offer complementary services to Fractional Leaders.
Businesses & Clients — Companies seeking verified, experienced Fractional talent.
Why it matters
Fractional Link is the natural extension of everything Danielle stands for: unlocking potential, creating space, and building communities where people can thrive on their own terms.
It’s proof that when people are given the right support and recognition, they don’t just do great work, they redefine how work is done.
