Fractional CMO For Hire

Where marketing consulting meets coaching

So you take your marketing hat off and focus on what you’re really good at.

The strategies you’ve used have worked… until now.

You’ve seen some success with your marketing but you’re starting to notice there seems to be a disconnect and you have no idea what it is, let alone how to even fix it. That’s because the strategies you use as you grow into different stages of your business often need to be tweaked to help you get to the next level.

So let’s get you some laser-focused strategic support so you can really leverage the absolute goldmine you know you’re sitting on, shall we?

Imagine if instead of spinning your wheels trying to identify what’s working and what’s not and second guessing your every marketing move, you had someone to: 

Consistently review your marketing efforts and provide you with solutions before you even notice something’s not working

Take your ideas and create a simplified plan for easy execution

Ensure every single piece of marketing is strategic and aligned with your business goals and objectives

Identify how to create an omnichannel approach that’s actually interconnected to create a marketing ecosystem

Stay up on all the latest marketing trends and news and provide informed strategies for you to implement based on your specific business

That’s where a Fractional CMO comes in.

We become your eyes and ears to ensure all your i’s are dotted and t’s are crossed in the execution of your marketing to keep it all aligned with your bigger business goals.

Because whether you’re doing your marketing yourself or you’ve outsourced some of the pieces, if there’s not someone overseeing the strategy, it’s likely going to be disjointed and ineffective.

Mallory Musante: Fractional CMO, marketing strategist, + business coach

Hey there! I'm Mallory.

YOUR NEW FRACTIONAL CMO

I’ve not only started 7 different businesses during my career but I’ve also helped over 250 small business owners grow and scale their brands by utilizing a variety of marketing strategies.

You name it, I’ve likely done it, and now I’m here to help you get more strategic with your marketing.

Through my almost 15 years of marketing experience, I’ve developed the unique ability to quickly pinpoint exactly what's not working, how to fix it, and identify opportunities for us to leverage.

I truly excel when I have data to analyze and cross reference with each other to get the bigger picture. Then I can drill down into more of the specifics on how to make improvements and new strategies we might want to experiment with, all in a simplified plan.

Marketing is not a set-it and forget-it process.

Marketing Cycle

While everyone’s needs will be slightly different, you can always count on getting the most strategic support for your business.

✓ Audit of your existing marketing assets and strategy to make sure your foundations are solid and can handle an influx of business

✓ Monitoring of all marketing analytics and data to identify what’s working, what’s not, and how we can make adjustments to optimize our efforts

✓ Oversight of the implementation so you and your team never have to question whether your execution is being done properly

  • “My conversion rate has increased to close to 90%!

    Mallory helped me see the holes in my business and develop a long-term plan for continued growth. In the few months we worked together my business transformed from a small word-of-mouth physical therapy practice to having multiple referral sources and weekly contacts from clients finding me online. I had an online presence for > 1 year before working with Mallory and never had a client say they found me online. I definitely plan to be a return client as my business changes and grows!”

    -Rachel, Physical Therapist

  • “Having hindsight, I can see how much money I was leaving on the table.

    Not only did I get the specific help I was looking for in outlining my target audience, messaging and email newsletter, but I also feel like I have a clear path forward for my business. I was able to find clarity around who I serve and how I serve them. I have more confidence on my sales calls, everything feels like it's coming together, I'm now ready to figure out my passive offers which I hadn't even been thinking about before, and I can already feel things shifting so that I'll be better positioned to serve my target audience.”

    -Christina, Web Developer and Strategist

  • “Working with her is definitely a worthwhile investment to propel your business forward!

    I was just beginning a business & website rebrand at the beginning of our time together, and it was so helpful for her to work directly with both me and my website designer for the duration of the rebrand. She provided suggestions around increasing my prices, and created the framework for a price increase marketing strategy to announce the change and convey value. She equipped me with the knowledge & resources I need to carry things forward on my own for all aspects of marketing in a consistent way. I know I'll reach out to her again when I have more marketing questions and/or need more help.”

    -Kelly, Photographer

  • “Worth every penny.

    I cannot believe how long I tried to implement these changes on my own to no avail and how quickly Mallory brought me solutions, support and accountability.”

    -Mary, The Ambitious Acorn

  • “This has been the most helpful investment of my career! If anyone is on the fence, sign up!

    Working with Mallory is always a delight. Sometimes you need to talk it out with an expert who knows what questions to ask, Mallory is that and more.”

    -Danae, Aspiring Co.

The CMO Partnership is right for you if. . .

You want to spend your time doing what you’re actually good at.

You've hit a plateau in your growth and have no idea how to push past it.

You have a team of doers and want someone to come in and strategically lead them.

You have questions. I have answers.

  • While I help with some of the technical setup (like setting up your funnel, for example), you and your team are largely responsible for implementation. I do have a network of professionals I work with though so if you need support in a specific area, I can provide connections.

  • I have over 15 years of marketing experience working with a wide variety of clients. However, my primary focus is on service providers but I do have experience working with product-based businesses and brick-and-mortar businesses.

  • I know you’re busy and one more call on your calendar might not be ideal for you so most of our communication will happen via email but there will be times I request a call to go over something more in-depth or you can always request a call.

    I am here to support you so we will be in regular communication one way or another so I know everything going on in your organization and can advise you properly.

  • Let’s chat! I will never tell you that I’m a good fit if I’m not experienced in what you need the most help with. I may have someone in my network that could be a better fit though and I’ll happily connect you with them if so!

  • Feel free to email me and I’m happy to answer them for you!

  • The CMO Partnership is perfect for more established businesses that already have a marketing strategy (if you don’t, check out my Marketing Intensive instead) but are looking for someone to lead yourself and your team with your marketing strategy to help you kick business up a notch.

    I always set up a complimentary discovery call for a vibe check though and to help you determine if this is a good fit. Fill out this form to start the process. No obligation, promise!
