Fractional CGO Services
Fractional CGO Services for Los Alamitos Law Firms: Put Marketing, Intake & Sales on One Team
Your Los Alamitos practice invests in marketing, intake, and BD — yet they report separately and good leads cool off between teams. We work above the silos and makes every team pull toward one revenue number.
In Short
What is a fractional CGO, and why do Los Alamitos firms hire one?
A fractional Chief Growth Officer for a law firm is a senior revenue executive who runs the full path from lead to signed client to repeat business 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 optimizing alone while good leads slip through the gaps.
- 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
Marketing, intake, sales, and retention each run their own leg. A fractional CGO owns the baton — so qualified leads stop getting dropped between teams.
Marketing
Measured by cases, not impressions.
Intake
Every qualified lead answered fast — none left to cool.
Conversion
Disciplined follow-up that turns interest into signed clients.
Referrals
Signed clients become repeat matters and referrals.
The Difference
What changes when one owner runs the number
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
- 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
- Revenue grows on the spend you already have
- One executive owns the number
