HIGHER GROUND

For strategic marketing to work, and for confidence in it to grow, a fractional CMO must first claim a vantage point for visibility.

PREDICTABLE RESULTS

Despite its reputation, marketing isn’t experimental. Trial and error is wise in iteration, but not in the overall program.

DEEPER SAVINGS

CMOs average $247K salary, $48K bonus, 0.5-1% equity. A fractional CMO is paid a fee, $102K to $168K annual, no bonus or equity. 

SMOOTHER ONBOARDING

Hiring a fractional CMO is a far simpler process than a typical executive search. We’re ready to audit from day 1 of the engagement.

ELEVATED ARTISTRY

Brands too often dwell on WHAT the business does — we shift the conversation to HOW expressive and compelling the offering is.

STRONGER COMMAND

In our first month, we can visually map all customer touchpoints. We adjust activity, install gap measures, and drive performance.

REGULAR CADENCE

Marketing, like other functions, works best on schedule. Your fractional CMO eagerly joins the team, is available, and leads weekly meets.

CLEARER REPORTING

Your fractional CMO speaks plainly and brings marketing “into the light.” We probe and improve your vitals for a healthier ecosystem.

BRIGHTER IDEAS

Your fractional CMO comes with a Fine Arts degree, 20 years of agency experience, and 10 years of artistry coaching with Torch.

Strategic Pillars

VISIBILITY

Seeing isn’t just believing, it’s control. If you can visualize the assets, players, touch points, and customer flow in marketing, then you have the vantage point to strategize and command operational excellence and results.

PERFORMANCE

With the right ecosystem in place, track the health of mission-critical signals. We can configure and deploy fast campaigns, short-term measures, and consulting to boost the vitality of the overall marketing program.

INNOVATION

Performance is never “good enough.” There are always challengers. We stay one step ahead of the competition through persistent brainstorming and select artistry coaching to elevate the brand and distinguish expression.
