Fractional CGO Services for Soledad Law Firms: Put Marketing, Intake & Sales on One Team
Your Soledad practice invests in marketing, intake, and BD — but each one runs on its own metric and qualified leads slip through the handoffs. We work above the silos and makes every team pull toward one revenue number.
Quick Answer
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 owns the entire revenue engine a few days a week rather than full-time. Rather than owning one function like marketing or ops, the CGO orchestrates across the silos — keeping marketing, intake, business development, and retention pulling toward one revenue number instead of each working hard while qualified leads leak between the handoffs.
- Top-tier growth leadership at a fraction — roughly 20–40% — of a full-time CGO
- Ideal when a $1M–$100M+ firm is losing leads in the handoffs
- Engagements usually run 6–18 months, then ease into advisory support
The Model
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.
Marketing
Measured by cases, not impressions.
Speed-to-lead
Every qualified lead answered fast — none left to cool.
Sales & BD
Disciplined follow-up that turns interest into signed clients.
Referrals
Signed clients become repeat matters and referrals.
Before & After
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
- Three teams, three dashboards, no shared number
- Good leads slip between teams
- Growth means buying more ad spend
- Accountability is diffused
Aligned
- One unified growth scoreboard for the whole firm
- No qualified lead left to go cold
- More cases without a bigger budget
- A single accountable owner
The Payoff
The growth a fractional CGO is accountable for
North-star
One growth number the whole firm runs on, with a single owner on the hook for it.
