Should I hire a Fractional CMO?
The support that CMOs can offer your business is incomparable. Chief Marketing Officers have an expansive wealth of marketing knowledge and experience that is truly invaluable to your company. However, a full-time senior marketing leader is not always accessible for every organisation.
Fractional and Interim CMOs can deliver the same amount of support over a shorter period of time. They can be a great option for companies that cannot currently afford to make a permanent hire, but still need the support of a Chief Marketing Officer.
