Fractional CMO Services That Get What SMB Company Owners Want
The question that keeps getting asked by firms and professionals that offer fractional CMO services is, "why don't small companies engage this strategic marketing hire internally?"
From my experience, this has to do with the fact that most small businesses grow and are successful because they're founder driven. The founder is good at selling their product or service, but there's no strategic marketing hire because the business owner doesn't fully understand, or is a little gun shy about "what marketing is" and "what marketing does."
The idea of hiring a senior marketer can be kind of scary because they're not really sure what they're going to do to manage this person. I will tell you that CEOs and business owners say what they want is customers. But when I start getting in and talking about the problems that are solved by strategic marketing, and the problems that can be solved by installing a marketing process.
What they really want is
clarity over their messaging,
control over their marketing, and
confidence about what they should be doing, and shouldn't be doing, what works and what doesn't work.
