Meet Darlamae Shannon
The trusted advisor behind stronger companies.
After more than 25 years leading HR inside growing organizations, Darlamae founded MobileHRnow with a conviction: most business owners don’t need another vendor. They need a seasoned executive advisor who genuinely partners with them.
She built the firm around the leaders she wished her clients had — proactive, responsive, unafraid of hard conversations, and deeply committed to helping companies win through the people they hire, develop, and retain.
Today, Darlamae works directly with executive teams to solve difficult workplace challenges, shape culture, coach managers, and build the HR foundation growing companies rely on.
The Signature Story
HR isn’t a department.
It’s a competitive advantage.
Most businesses wait until something goes wrong before thinking about HR — the wrongful termination claim, the sudden resignation, the manager who never should have been promoted. By then, the cost of fixing it dwarfs the cost of preventing it.
MobileHRnow helps companies get in front of it. We embed as your executive people function so leadership decisions, culture, and compliance move together — and your organization gets stronger every quarter, not just when there’s a fire to fight.
Hire better people
Retain top talent
Build stronger cultures

Reduce costly mistakes
Who We Help
Leaders building something worth working for.
We partner with owner-operators and executive teams who understand that exceptional businesses are built by exceptional teams — and want the leadership support to prove it.
Small Businesses
Every business deserves executive-level people expertise. As your fractional HR partner, we give you a seasoned advisor at a fraction of the cost of an in-house director.
- Fractional HR leadership
- Compliance & policy
- Employee support
Healthcare Practices
Clinical excellence starts with a healthy team. We help medical and dental practices manage the employment complexity so clinicians can focus on patients.
- Employment guidance
- Handbooks & policies
- Manager training
Professional Service Firms
Law firms, agencies, and consultancies rise and fall on their people. We coach partners and principals into leaders — and build the engagement systems to keep top talent.
- Leadership coaching
- Employee engagement
- Growth planning
Manufacturing & Trades
Workforce shortages, safety, and turnover are strategic issues, not paperwork. We help operations leaders turn HR into a lever for retention, productivity, and stability.
- Workforce planning
- Safety & compliance
- Retention strategy
Founders & Executive Teams
You want a partner, not another vendor. We sit at the leadership table, translate people strategy into business outcomes, and give you the confidence to make hard calls.
- Executive advisory
- Difficult conversations
- Culture & values
Services organized by business outcome
Four questions every leader asks.
Four answers we deliver.
Rather than listing HR services, we organize our work around the outcomes that actually matter to a business owner — and every engagement is measured against them.
Build Better Teams
The people you hire define the ceiling of what you can build.
- Recruiting strategy
- Hiring systems & scorecards
- Onboarding programs
- Retention & engagement
How does this help my company become stronger?
Develop Strong Leaders
Managers are made, not found. We turn good performers into confident leaders.
- Leadership coaching
- Manager development
- Employee engagement
- Performance management
How does this help my company become stronger?
Protect Your Business
One preventable mistake can cost more than a year of proactive advisory.
- Employment compliance
- Employee handbooks
- Workplace investigations
- Employment law guidance
How does this help my company become stronger?
Simplify Operations
You didn’t start your company to run payroll. We handle the back office.
- Payroll support (ADP)
- HRIS & systems
- Documentation & SOPs
- Policies & workflows

Why leaders choose MobileHRnow
Not a firm to hire.
A partner to trust.
The leaders we serve don’t choose us because of a proposal. They choose us because after one conversation with Darlamae, they know they’ve found the person they wish they’d had years ago.
“I don’t need to hire an HR department. I already found one.”
