Fractional Chief Growth Officer
Fractional CGO Services for Westminster Law Firms: Put Marketing, Intake & Sales on One Team
You spend on marketing, field the leads, and chase business development — while no single person owns the number they’re all supposed to move. We work above the silos and unifies demand, intake, conversion, and retention under one owner.
Quick Answer
What does a fractional CGO do for a Westminster law firm?
A fractional Chief Growth Officer for a law firm is a senior revenue executive who owns the entire revenue engine on a part-time, contracted basis. Rather than owning one function like marketing or ops, the CGO sits above the silos — keeping marketing, intake, business development, and retention pulling toward one revenue number instead of optimizing alone while good leads slip through the gaps.
- Senior revenue leadership for about 20–40% of a full-time hire’s price
- Built for $1M–$100M+ firms where the teams don’t share one number
- Most last 6–18 months before shifting to a lighter advisory rhythm
Above the Silos
Why no one owns the baton
Marketing, intake, sales, and retention each run their own leg. A fractional CGO owns the baton — so qualified leads stop getting dropped between teams.
Demand
Pointed at qualified pipeline and cost-per-signed-case, not clicks.
Speed-to-lead
No good lead left to go cold.
Conversion
Disciplined follow-up that turns interest into signed clients.
Retention
Signed clients become repeat matters and referrals.
Before & After
