Mallory Musante, Fractional CMO and Marketing Consultant

hey there!

I’m Mallory, the Small Business CMO.

I’m a marketing consultant helping small business owners and service providers build marketing strategies that feel simple, sustainable, and actually drive growth.

Throughout my almost 15 years of experience, I’ve not only worked with hundreds of clients from large corporate brands to fast-growing businesses in their early stages and everyone in-between, but I’ve also started seven vastly different businesses myself. 

The one thing I’ve noticed throughout my career is that the majority of business owners focus a lot on marketing tactics and not as much on the strategies driving those tactics leaving their marketing efforts feeling disjointed, inconsistent, and ultimately, less effective.

Now I’m on a mission to change that by making CMO-level support more accessible to small businesses through strategic, but simplified, marketing plans that will actually make a difference.

One email. Once a month. That’s it.

One sharp, strategic nudge to help you get 1% better at your marketing.
