Marketing Leadership for Boulder Law Firms, Tied to Cost-Per-Case
Most firms spend on marketing and cross their fingers. We put in place the plan, mix, and tracking that tie every dollar to a signed case — and keep every vendor accountable to real outcomes.
The Short Version
What does a fractional CMO do for a Boulder law firm?
A fractional CMO for a law firm in Boulder delivers senior marketing leadership on a fractional basis — owning strategy, channel mix, brand, lead generation, and the measurement that ties spend to signed cases. In place of a costly full-time CMO or a self-scoring vendor, the firm gets one executive who sets the plan, runs the vendors and budget, and answers for cost-per-case and ROI. And we get the firm found as search shifts to AI: traditional SEO plus AEO and GEO so the firm shows up wherever clients now look.
- A single owner on the hook for strategy, spend, vendors, and outcomes
- Measurement built on cost-per-case and return, not vanity numbers
- Coverage across SEO, AEO, and GEO as search goes AI-first
