For Small & Growing Businesses
Hire your marketing officer without the headaches.
A Fractional Marketing Officer is a senior marketing leader who works with your business part-time — a few days a month — to set the plan, lead your people and vendors, and own the results.
Big corporations pay $250,000+ a year for a Chief Marketing Officer. A local business doing $1M–$10M a year can’t — and shouldn’t. But you still need someone senior in the driver’s seat. Without that, marketing becomes random: a post here, an ad there, an agency nobody is managing, and no clear link to sales.
Corporations hire a full-time CMO. Small businesses usually try a junior hire and end up doing the strategy themselves.
