When it makes sense

Three moments when companies bring me in.

Growth

Your growth has outpaced your marketing

Founders or sales leaders are still running marketing, and the company needs senior direction before it is ready for a full-time CMO.

Launch

You are launching or entering a new market

A new product, a new segment or a new region, such as the United States, Saudi Arabia or the UAE, needs a go-to-market plan and someone to lead it.

Interim

You are between CMOs

Interim leadership keeps campaigns, budgets and the team on track while you hire, then hands over a working system.

Ways to work together

Leadership on the terms that fit your stage.

Ongoing

Fractional CMO leadership

A set number of days a month as your marketing leader: strategy, team, budget and reporting.

90 days

Growth program

A structured 90-day program that fixes the leaks in your funnel first, then builds a system that compounds.

Sprint

Focused project sprints

A launch plan, an ABM program, a CRM and automation build, or a go-to-market strategy for one market.

Advisory

Advisory

Regular sessions with your CEO and leadership team to pressure-test plans, budgets and hires.

FAQ

Questions about fractional CMO work.

What is a fractional CMO?

A fractional CMO (Chief Marketing Officer) is a senior marketing leader who works with your company part-time, usually for a set number of days a month. You get CMO-level strategy, team leadership and accountability for results without the cost of a full-time executive.

When does a company need a fractional CMO?

When marketing needs senior leadership but a full-time CMO is not justified yet: a growing B2B company, a product launch, entry into a new market, or a gap between CMOs.

How is a fractional CMO different from a marketing agency?

An agency executes campaigns. A fractional CMO owns the strategy, the budget and the results, leads your team and your agencies, and reports to the CEO or board.

How do engagements work?

We agree the format after the strategy call. Options include a 90-day growth program, ongoing fractional CMO leadership, focused project sprints or advisory.

Which companies and markets do you work with?

B2B companies in SaaS, AI and technology, and pharma, biotech, medtech and diagnostics companies. I work remotely with clients in the United States, Canada, Europe and the Middle East, in English and Arabic. For healthcare companies, see healthcare and pharma marketing leadership.
