In Short

What is a fractional CMO, and why do Chinatown firms hire one?

A fractional CMO is an executive marketing leader who works part-time — taking the strategy, channels, brand, lead gen, and attribution off your plate. In place of a costly full-time CMO or a self-scoring vendor, the firm gets a leader who owns the strategy, manages the spend, and is accountable for cost-per-case and return. And we get the firm found as search shifts to AI: classic SEO alongside AEO (answer engine optimization) and GEO (generative engine optimization) so the firm shows up wherever clients now look.

  • One accountable owner for strategy, budget, vendors, and results
  • Metrics that track cost-per-case and ROI, not clicks and impressions
  • Coverage across SEO, AEO, and GEO as search goes AI-first

Heavy spend across vendors, but nobody could say what was driving cases.
