Fractional CGO Services
A Fractional Chief Growth Officer for Granby Law Firms — One Owner for the Whole Revenue Engine
Your Granby practice invests in marketing, intake, and BD — yet they report separately and good leads cool off between teams. A fractional Chief Growth Officer takes the whole engine and aligns the entire engine behind one scoreboard.
Quick Answer
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 fractional schedule. Where a CMO owns marketing and a COO owns operations, the CGO sits above the silos — keeping marketing, intake, business development, and retention pulling toward one revenue number 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
- Ideal when a $1M–$100M+ firm is losing leads in the handoffs
- Typically 6–18 months, then a part-time advisory cadence
Above the Silos
The revenue relay a fractional CGO owns
Each team runs hard, but leads cool in the handoffs. A CGO owns the whole relay and the one number it feeds.
Demand
Measured by cases, not impressions.
Intake
No good lead left to go cold.
Conversion
Structured pursuit from inquiry to engagement.
Referrals
Happy clients recycle into new pipeline.
The Difference
What changes when one owner runs the number
The gap isn’t budget; it’s ownership of the handoffs.
Siloed
- Marketing, intake, and sales each report their own metric
- Good leads slip between teams
- Growth means buying more ad spend
- Accountability is diffused
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
- A single accountable owner
The Scoreboard
One number, owned and moved every week
