Growth Leadership for Welby Law Firms, Sitting Above the Silos
You spend on marketing, field the leads, and chase business development — yet they report separately and good leads cool off between teams. We work above the silos and aligns the entire engine behind one scoreboard.
The Short Version
What is a fractional CGO, and why do Welby firms hire one?
A fractional Chief Growth Officer for a law firm in Welby is an experienced revenue executive who owns the entire revenue engine a few days a week rather than full-time. Unlike a CMO who owns marketing or a COO who owns operations, the CGO orchestrates across the silos — keeping marketing, intake, business development, and retention pulling toward one revenue number instead of each working hard while qualified leads leak between the handoffs.
- Top-tier growth leadership at a fraction — roughly 20–40% — of a full-time CGO
- Ideal when a $1M–$100M+ firm is losing leads in the handoffs
- Most last 6–18 months before shifting to a lighter advisory rhythm
Above the Silos
Why no one owns the baton
Each team runs hard, but leads cool in the handoffs. A CGO owns the whole relay and the one number it feeds.
Marketing
Measured by cases, not impressions.
Speed-to-lead
No good lead left to go cold.
Conversion
Structured pursuit from inquiry to engagement.
Retention
Signed clients become repeat matters and referrals.
Where Revenue Leaks
Leaking vs. sealed: where the revenue goes
Same marketing spend, two very different outcomes — depending on whether anyone owns the whole path.
Before a CGO
- Marketing, intake, and sales each report their own metric
- Good leads slip between teams
- More revenue requires a bigger budget
- No one owns the revenue number
With a fractional CGO
- One unified growth scoreboard for the whole firm
- No qualified lead left to go cold
- More cases without a bigger budget
- A single accountable owner
The Scoreboard
