No, we can begin our engagement at the fractional CMO or marketing advisor tier. However, the most common path is to start at the fractional CMO level and reduce the engagement level over time. This is because building the marketing foundation is the most time consuming part of the process. My goal is to build a self-sufficient team from within your organization. After about 6-9 months, once the appropriate team members are hired and trained, I will take a step back and act as a coach until the team is confident on their own. Then I will remain accessible as an advisor for as long as you need me.
