About Nicole McNamee Consulting

Nicole helps promotional products organizations grow without losing their edge.  Working at the intersection of sales, operations, and leadership clarity, she builds systems – not theories – that make companies measurably stronger in 180 days or less.

Nicole partners with distributors and suppliers growing beyond their adolescence: companies ready for structure, alignment, and smarter ways of working.

Her approach blends three strengths:

1) Strategic clarity: Quickly diagnosing what’s really happening inside a sales organization and turning those insights into decisive action.

2) Operational structure: Creating frameworks, workflows, reporting, and accountability systems that drive consistent performance.

3) Executive-level momentum: Serving as a fractional CRO/COO to align teams, eliminate friction, and operationalize growth.

Nicole works directly with senior leadership teams in a Fractional Executive capacity – stepping in to stabilize, accelerate, or guide organizations when a full-time role isn’t required.

She is also a promotional products subject matter expert for corporate procurement teams, leading RFP development and execution for Fortune 500 companies.

Before her 20-year sales career, Nicole worked in healthcare finance at PricewaterhouseCoopers and later served as a Controller for a major hospital system. She holds an MBA from the University of Memphis and is a proud University of Tennessee alum (and former Smokey).

Her blend of leadership, finance, and operational expertise allows her to evaluate organizations through the lens of ROI, efficiency, and sustainable growth.

If a company wants clarity, structure, and measurable results, that’s where she does her best work.
