Fractional Chief Growth Officer
Fractional CGO Services for Prichard Law Firms: Put Marketing, Intake & Sales on One Team
Your Prichard practice invests in marketing, intake, and BD — yet they report separately and good leads cool off between teams. A fractional Chief Growth Officer takes the whole engine and makes every team pull toward one revenue number.
In Short
What is a fractional Chief Growth Officer for a law firm?
A fractional Chief Growth Officer for a law firm is a senior revenue executive who takes ownership of the firm’s whole growth engine on a part-time, contracted basis. Unlike a CMO who owns marketing or a COO who owns operations, the CGO sits above the silos — connecting marketing, intake, sales, and retention into one accountable system instead of each working hard while qualified leads leak between the handoffs.
- Executive growth leadership at roughly 20–40% of a full-time CGO’s cost
- A fit for $1M–$100M+ firms whose marketing, intake, and sales report separately
- Most last 6–18 months before shifting to a lighter advisory rhythm
Above the Silos
The revenue relay a fractional CGO owns
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.
Intake
No good lead left to go cold.
Sales & BD
Structured pursuit from inquiry to engagement.
Referrals
Happy clients recycle into new pipeline.
