Fractional CGO Services
Fractional CGO Services for Bartow Law Firms: Put Marketing, Intake & Sales on One Team
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 aligns the entire engine behind one scoreboard.
The Short Version
What does a fractional CGO do for a Bartow 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. Where a CMO owns marketing and a COO owns operations, the CGO works 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
- Built for $1M–$100M+ firms where the teams don’t share one number
- Typically 6–18 months, then a part-time advisory cadence

The handoff problem no single leader owns
Each team runs its own race; the baton gets dropped between them.

CMO vs COO vs CGO
Why a Chief Growth Officer sits above the silos
CMO
Owns marketing
Drives leads and brand — but hands off at the edge of marketing.
COO
Owns operations
Runs systems and delivery — not the path from lead to signed client.
CGO
Above the silos
Owns the full path — marketing, intake, sales, and retention — pulling every team to one number.

Outcomes
Outcomes Bartow firms see
Proof
Representative growth engagements
Representative of what one accountable owner can change.
A scaling PI firm had strong demand and stalled conversion; we unified the funnel, drove fast response, and installed a weekly revenue review.
At a $5M employment firm, demand was strong but follow-up was hit-or-miss and every team reported its own numbers. We stood up a unified scoreboard and a BD cadence on one conversion target.
Roughly 35% and 25% lifts, respectively, with no added budget.
Reviews

“Marketing, intake, and our closers finally pull the same direction. Someone owns the whole number now — not just their slice.”
“The growth came from fixing the handoffs, not a bigger budget; we finally convert the leads we were losing.”
