Business owners can hire a Fractional CMO if the company does not have an in-house marketing expert or the capital to hire one.

Hiring a Fractional CMO can help you evaluate whether or not your company is reaching its full potential. In particular, they will have access to expert contacts to help you expand your business and hone your marketing initiatives.

Growth tips/tricks are like “Get rich fast” schemes- they promise instant results, but they don’t work. The real answer is painstaking iteration to get p/m (product/market) fit, nailing a single growth channel, layering on over time, hiring teams and building repeatable systems. Get rich slow.
