The Short Version

What does a fractional CMO do for a French Valley law firm?

A fractional CMO for a law firm in French Valley delivers senior marketing leadership on a fractional basis — taking the strategy, channels, brand, lead gen, and attribution off your plate. Rather than a full-time hire, or an agency marking its own homework, 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 turns up in Google, AI overviews, and assistant answers alike.

  • One accountable owner for strategy, budget, vendors, and results
  • Metrics that track cost-per-case and ROI, not clicks and impressions
  • Visibility across SEO, AEO, and GEO for the new search landscape

Field Note

A representative French Valley-style engagement

Illustrative of what this work tends to produce; details are representative.

Personal Injury · $14M revenue · high spend

Budget was flowing to several agencies with no clear read on which channels produced signed cases.

We unified tracking from first touch to signed case, scored every channel, cut the spend that wasn’t converting, and moved budget to the highest-ROI sources.

Lower cost-per-case and higher qualified volume, at the same time.
