Common questions

Fractional CMO — FAQ

When do I need a Fractional CMO?

When marketing isn't generating consistent pipeline, when you're entering a new market, when you need a senior voice to align sales and marketing, or when you have a marketing team but no strategic leadership.

How is a Fractional CMO different from a marketing agency?

A Fractional CMO is embedded in your business as a senior leader — they own the strategy, manage your team or agency, and are accountable to revenue outcomes. An agency executes tactics. You need both, but the CMO comes first.

What metrics will a Fractional CMO be accountable to?

Qualified pipeline generated, CAC, LTV, marketing-sourced revenue, and brand metrics. We agree on OKRs in week one and report against them every month.

How much does a Fractional CMO cost?

Typically $3,500–$12,000/month depending on engagement depth — compared to $250,000–$500,000 for a full-time Chief Marketing Officer. Most clients see ROI within the first 60 days. View our pricing tiers →

What is the minimum engagement length?

We recommend a minimum of 3 months to see measurable impact. Most clients stay 12–24 months. There are no long-term lock-ins — we earn your business every month.
