Engaged Fractional CMO

Choosing a fractional Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) offers several strategic advantages for businesses seeking expert guidance without the commitment of a full-time executive. This flexibility allows me to focus on delivering results efficiently, often with a specific project or time-bound scope, making them an ideal choice for businesses looking for targeted and impactful marketing strategies.

Half-Day Consult

Sometimes you need a consultation and a lean go-to-marketing strategy without constant oversight, deep research, or an implementation team. Following a 2-week preparatory period, I hold an in-depth, 4-hour Strategy Session for your team to provide focus and direction. The result: a custom marketing strategy with an immediate marketing “punch-list,” detailed inventory of blind spots, and marketing campaigns for the next 1-6 months.
