FRACTIONAL CTO · SECURITY BY DESIGN
Senior Technology Leadership - Without the Full-Time Hire
I work with small business owners as a fractional CTO: making better technology decisions, fixing what's broken, and building a plan that actually holds together.
THE PROBLEM
Here's what most business owners don't find out until it's too late: the technology holding their business together was never properly built. It was assembled — one tool at a time, one workaround at a time — by people doing their best without a clear plan.
It works. Until it doesn't.
Maybe you already feel it: slow systems, duplicated effort, a data breach you're not sure you'd catch, vendors you're not sure you can trust. Maybe everything seems fine and that's exactly the problem — you haven't looked closely enough to know.
Either way, you don't need a $200,000 full-time CTO. You need someone who's seen this before, can tell you the truth about where you stand, and knows what to fix first.
WHAT I DO
Three Ways I Work With Business Owners
ƒCTO Leadership
Starting at $10,000 USD/month
Full fractional CTO engagement
I work inside your business as your KPI-driven fractional CTO. Strategy, team direction, vendor management, daily standups, weekly sprint reviews — I own your technology function and drive it forward. 3-month minimum.
ƒCTO Half-Day Strategy Session
Starting at $7,500 USD + travel
One-time deep dive
A 4-hour strategy session built on the Functional Technology® Framework, prepared over two weeks of correspondence. You walk out with a technology punch list, a blindspot report, and a project list for the next 1 to 6 months.
ƒCTO Advisor
Starting at $3,000 USD/month
Long-term strategic guidance
Ongoing strategic oversight for clients who have completed a CTOx Leadership sprint or Strategy Session. Quarterly planning, twice-monthly sprint calls, unlimited email, and access to Viewson's technology SOPs. 6-month commitment.

Why Business Owners Work With Me
I've spent 30 years solving technology and security problems at the enterprise level. I've built security programs from scratch, run teams of 21 people, sat on industry councils, and presented to boards and have spoken internationally.
I work with small businesses now because that's where the gap is. Most SMB owners can't access this level of experience without hiring someone full-time or paying enterprise consulting rates. I've structured my practice to change that.
You get a straight answer, not a sales pitch for more services
Your team gets direction they can actually execute
Your security gaps get found before they become incidents
You get clear priorities: what to fix now, what to fix later, what to ignore
No long-term contracts required
Want a Straight Answer Before Committing to Anything?
Both of these are fixed-price, one-time purchases. No retainer. No discovery call required. Built on the same frameworks I used at Bell Canada and as VP of Corporate Security for a 6,000-person organization.
Cyber Risk Snapshot
$997 USD
A written security assessment of your business delivered in 5 business days. You fill out a short intake. I review your tools, access setup, vendor exposure, and team practices — and hand you back a prioritized report of your real risks and exactly what to do about them.
SMB Starter Pack
$197 USD
Four done-for-you security documents your business should already have: an Acceptable Use Policy, Vendor Risk Questionnaire, Incident Response Checklist, and Employee Security Handbook. Editable Word files. Add your logo and they are ready to use today.
ABOUT BLAKE
Why Listen to Me
I'm not a generalist consultant who picked up a security certification. I spent seven years at Bell Canada designing and running over 150 assessments and built the methodology the team still uses. After that, I took a VP role running corporate security for a 6,000-person organization across multiple sites: physical security, information security, compliance, emergency management. All of it.
I started Viewson because small businesses are making expensive technology decisions without anyone qualified at the table. A bad vendor choice, an unpatched system, a tech stack that can't scale; these aren't small problems. They compound.
If you want someone who will tell you the truth about where your business stands and help you fix the right things in the right order.
That's what I do.
