Your next executive hire?

(But at a fraction of the cost)

The point of a fractional hire is you get all the experience and accrued wisdom but at a fraction of the price.

Most start-ups and small businesses could benefit from a talented and experienced marketer but it can often be folly to recruit one. Good CMO salaries are upward of £100,000, plus additional employment costs, and the truth is in many cases 50% of the time that CMO will be doing the work of someone well beneath that paygrade.
You don’t want to pay someone £100k+ a year to write blog posts or set-up PPC campaigns. But you may need someone to oversee and direct that activity. You just don’t need them there 5 days a week.

Hire me for a day a month or a day a week – whatever you need.
Or hire me for a specific project.
