Common questions

What leaders usually want to know.

Is a fractional CMO a part-time employee?

No. It is senior marketing leadership delivered through an agreed scope and working cadence.

Will this replace our existing team or agency?

Usually not. The role is to give capable people clearer direction, priorities, and accountability.

Can Mike work with our current vendors?

Yes. Existing agencies, freelancers, and internal staff can remain in place when they fit the plan.

How is success measured?

Relevant indicators are agreed during the diagnostic stage. Measurement is tied to business priorities, not a generic dashboard.

How long does an engagement last?

That depends on the business need. Some engagements address a defined transition; others continue as ongoing marketing leadership.
