Fractional Chief Growth Officer
The Fractional Chief Growth Officer Tujunga Law Firms Trust to Own Growth End-to-End
Your firm markets hard, runs an intake team, and works its referrals — but each one runs on its own metric and qualified leads slip through the handoffs. 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 CGO is a seasoned growth leader who runs the full path from lead to signed client to repeat business on a part-time, contracted basis. Where a CMO owns marketing and a COO owns operations, the CGO orchestrates across the silos — connecting marketing, intake, sales, and retention into one accountable system 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
- Most last 6–18 months before shifting to a lighter advisory rhythm
The Revenue Relay
Why no one owns the baton
Each team runs hard, but leads cool in the handoffs. A CGO owns the whole relay and the one number it feeds.
Demand
Pointed at qualified pipeline and cost-per-signed-case, not clicks.
Speed-to-lead
Every qualified lead answered fast — none left to cool.
Conversion
Structured pursuit from inquiry to engagement.
Referrals
Happy clients recycle into new pipeline.
The Difference
