We’re Strategic Technology Advisors for Seasonal Businesses

At Chatham Oaks Growth Solutions (COGS)

All businesses should have the capacity to take advantage of modern technology to save time. Large businesses have Chief Technology Officers to do this for them.

We provide Fractional CTO services for mid-sized seasonal businesses helping them grow through smart automation, AI, SEO, and modern systems integration.

What’s a Fractional CTO?

A Fractional CTO (Chief Technology Officer) is a part-time, contract-based technology leader who provides strategic guidance and oversight without being a full-time employee.

Think of it as "CTO-as-a-service." You get tech leadership and implementation on a flexible basis.

Why a Fractional CTO?

Fractional CTOs are ideal for businesses that need strategic direction into topics such as SEO, AI, automation, and business software but aren’t ready (or don’t need) to hire a full-time CTO.

Empowered with modern technology, businesses are operating 3x more efficiently leading to higher profits and shorter work weeks.

Our Mission

The purpose behind Chatham Oaks Growth Solutions (COGS) is to to save seasonal businesses millions of work-hours annually through streamlined tech solutions, driving sustainable local prosperity.

Modern Technology Consultations

Before providing any solution, we thoroughly audit business processes and technology to find inefficiencies in current operations and opportunities for teams to modernize their business, saving precious time and budget.

Expert SEO Technicians

Making SEO Simpler

Every online business needs SEO but it’s hard to decide where to start. Everything we do in search engine optimization and marketing is to make it easier and more accessible to all businesses.

In order to accomplish SEO accessibility for all SMEs, we’ve developed a variation of solutions.

  • The Trek for custom consultations, management and maintenance of local, national and international traffic.

  • Switchback Starter Kits for small businesses with limited budgets.

  • The SEO Trailhead for day-to-day SEO questions and advice.

Integrating Automation and AI

Empowering Industries with Automation

We use no-code automation software to build our Switchback Starter Kits, comprehensive automation suites focused on industry-specific obstacles. This allows for versatility, cost and time saving, and business growth.

Scaling Businesses with Software

We use accessible AI tools and common business operations software to create scaling solutions in the Trek and our other products for small to medium businesses to streamline their current operations frameworks.

The COGS Team

Chatham Oaks is a small team, hyper focused on local knowledge, technical expertise, and hands-on support.


  • Founder

    Hi, I’m Matt. In 2009, I became a Cape Cod “wash-ashore”. My appreciation for the Cape Cod lifestyle combined with interest in all things technology led to the foundation of Chatham Oaks.

    My time at Bentley University and a decade of advising small businesses in marketing and operations taught me how fulfilling running a business can be.

    When I’m not working with my clients, you’ll find me on the golf course or rock climbing.


  • Partner

    Hi, I’m Cole. Originally from Western Massachusetts, I made Cape Cod my home in 2022 after studying political science and law at Emmanuel College.

    Along the way, I discovered a passion for business building, artificial intelligence, and emerging technology.

    At Chatham Oaks, I bring these interests together to help local businesses grow through smart, modern solutions.

Chatham Oaks is built to keep up with modern technology while maintaining direct working relationships with our clients.

Our internal infrastructure of AI agents and complex automations allow our small team to address the needs of companies of any size or scale.
