Growth Leadership for Larkspur Law Firms, Sitting Above the Silos
Your Larkspur practice invests in marketing, intake, and BD — but each one runs on its own metric and qualified leads slip through the handoffs. We work above the silos and unifies demand, intake, conversion, and retention under one owner.
In Short
What does a fractional CGO do for a Larkspur law firm?
A fractional CGO is a seasoned growth leader who takes ownership of the firm’s whole growth engine a few days a week rather than full-time. Unlike a CMO who owns marketing or a COO who owns operations, the CGO sits above the silos — making demand, intake, conversion, and retention move the same scoreboard 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
The Revenue Relay
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.
Marketing
Pointed at qualified pipeline and cost-per-signed-case, not clicks.
Speed-to-lead
No good lead left to go cold.
Conversion
Structured pursuit from inquiry to engagement.
Retention
Signed clients become repeat matters and referrals.

- No one owns the revenue number
Aligned

- More cases without a bigger budget
