SO WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A FRACTIONAL CMO AND A CONSULTANT OR A FREELANCER?

This is nomenclature, but with fractional work on the rise, I’m okay with whatever you want to call it — at the end of the day, it’s my services adding value to drive business results and achievable growth for your brand.

EXPERTISE AND FRESH THINKING

Coming from outside the organization, I possess an objective perspective. With diverse experience across various industries, business models, and company stages, I bring fresh ideas and proven frameworks.

FLEXIBILITY
AND SCALABILITY

Depending on the needs, engagement can be scaled up or down based on evolving business needs. Adjusting time/cost commitment without going through the hiring processes is much easier.

COST-EFFECTIVE
SOLUTION

Instead of committing to a full-time CMO's salary or broad agency retainers, the costs are substantially lower without sacrificing quality. You receive the vital strategic insights, leadership, and performance reporting required for growth at a fraction of the cost

WHAT IS A FRACTIONAL CMO?

A Fractional CMO provides executive-level marketing leadership, steering strategy, managing marketing functions, and driving business growth on a part-time or contract basis. They are ideal for businesses requiring senior strategic oversight without a full-time executive commitment. Engaging a Fractional CMO allows companies to access expert strategy, seasoned leadership, operational flexibility, and a valuable external perspective, often at a significantly lower cost than a full-time CMO salary. 

Key advantages include access to top-tier strategic thinking, experienced leadership, adaptability, a fresh perspective, and substantial financial savings. It is also a practical solution when the volume of executive-level marketing doesn't warrant a full-time position, making it a smart choice for small- to mid-sized companies evaluating their leadership needs.
