Fractional CMO
Exceptional Strategy.
Minimal Commitment.
OUR TYPICAL ENGAGEMENT
What Do Our Partnerships Look Like?
Clients come to us with unique challenges and goals. We tailor our marketing solutions to fit their specific needs, not a one-size-fits-all approach. We offer two main partnership structures to best serve you.
Our most typical engagement is on a retainer based contract. This is the most popular for our clients, as it offers multiple benefits:
- No Tracking Of Hours
- Deeper Integration Between Organizations
- Flexibility To Engage On Multiple Projects
- More Of An "Internal CMO" Relationship
While a retainer-based engagement is often preferred for our clients, some have specific projects in mind, which can simplify the partnership:
- Predetermined start and end of a project
- Weekly deliverable reporting
- At times, an extension of existing marketing team
- Can address immediate opportunities before a larger engagement

TAILOR-MADE DIGITAL MARKETING
Customized marketing strategy and execution
We are marketing and branding experts that have decades of experience building brands that scale. We have taken start-ups with no brand strategy into some of the most recognized names in their industries, thanks to our proven step-by-step approach.
1. Tell us your story
This is the most important step of the process. We want to understand the “why” behind the business and what the goals of the company may be. This sets the foundation for the brand.
2. Brand deep-dive
This is where we will look at the attributes that align with your brand. We use a series of fun exercises to find what really speaks to you, what traits you admire, and what you strive to become as a company.
3. Brand roadmap
After all of the exercises and deep dives are complete, the next step is for us to do a detailed review of the brand and begin to pull out the themes and characteristics that make your brand unique.
Why A Fractional CMO?
We have over a decade of executive marketing leadership
A CMO understands the current marketing landscape and can initiate marketing programs that drive more leads, increase conversions, and boost sales. They are responsible for creating a complete marketing strategy and marketing audit to deliver a better return on investment (ROI) for your marketing spend.
There’s one challenge, though. A full-time CMO may not be a good fit for many companies due to budget issues and other challenges. This is where a Fractional CMO comes in.
Unlike a full-time CMO, a Fractional CMO works on a part-time basis and works for different clients. In other words, a Fractional CMO provides services to your company at a fraction of the cost of what you would spend on a full-time marketing executive.
New Strategies
One of the tasks a CMO does best is taking a look at your current marketing efforts with fresh eyes and finding new strategies that will help you meet your goals. We will be able to translate your goals into tangible wins based on our knowledge, experience, and data.
Efficiency
Since a fractional CMO isn’t a full-time employee, we are aware that time is valuable. We’ll be able to completely focus on a specific project or marketing effort instead of needing to attend to other day-to-day, time-wasting tasks that full-time employees often contend with.
Less Risk
If you’ve hired full-time employees before, you know that the process is cumbersome. There’s also the risk that you hire someone and find that they don’t quite fit well with your company culture or brand.
- Expensive recruiting
- Lengthy onboarding process
- Costly benefits
- Focus on ideas, not execution
