Fractional CGO Services
The Fractional Chief Growth Officer Fortuna Foothills Law Firms Trust to Own Growth End-to-End
Your firm markets hard, runs an intake team, and works its referrals — yet they report separately and good leads cool off between teams. A fractional CGO sits above the silos and unifies demand, intake, conversion, and retention under one owner.
The Short Version
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. Where a CMO owns marketing and a COO owns operations, the CGO sits above the silos — making demand, intake, conversion, and retention move the same scoreboard 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
The Revenue Relay
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
Every qualified lead answered fast — none left to cool.
Sales & BD
Structured pursuit from inquiry to engagement.
Retention
Signed clients become repeat matters and referrals.
The Difference
Leaking vs. sealed: where the revenue goes
Same marketing spend, two very different outcomes — depending on whether anyone owns the whole path.
Siloed
- Marketing, intake, and sales each report their own metric
- Qualified leads cool off in the handoffs
- More revenue requires a bigger budget
- No one owns the revenue number
With a fractional CGO
- A single source of truth across every team
- Speed-to-lead under five minutes, every time
- More cases without a bigger budget
- One executive owns the number
