The Fractional Chief Growth Officer Ledyard Law Firms Trust to Own Growth End-to-End
Your firm markets hard, runs an intake team, and works its referrals — 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.
Quick Answer
What does a fractional CGO do for a Ledyard law firm?
A fractional Chief Growth Officer for a law firm in Ledyard is an experienced revenue executive who runs the full path from lead to signed client to repeat business a few days a week rather than full-time. Rather than owning one function like marketing or ops, the CGO works 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.
- Top-tier growth leadership at a fraction — roughly 20–40% — of a full-time CGO
- Built for $1M–$100M+ firms where the teams don’t share one number
- Engagements usually run 6–18 months, then ease into advisory support
Above the Silos
Growth is a relay — and leads get dropped at the handoffs
Marketing, intake, sales, and retention each run their own leg. A fractional CGO owns the baton — so qualified leads stop getting dropped between teams.
Demand
Pointed at qualified pipeline and cost-per-signed-case, not clicks.
Speed-to-lead
No good lead left to go cold.
Sales & BD
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
- Good leads slip between teams
- Growth means buying more ad spend
- Accountability is diffused
With a fractional CGO
- One unified growth scoreboard for the whole firm
- Speed-to-lead under five minutes, every time
- More cases without a bigger budget
- One executive owns the number
