Quick Answer

What does a fractional CMO do for a law firm?

A fractional CMO for a law firm in San Anselmo delivers senior marketing leadership on a fractional basis — owning strategy, channel mix, brand, lead generation, and the measurement that ties spend to signed cases. Instead of a full-time CMO — or letting an agency grade its own work, 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: classic SEO alongside AEO (answer engine optimization) and GEO (generative engine optimization) so the firm turns up in Google, AI overviews, and assistant answers alike.

  • One accountable owner for strategy, budget, vendors, and results
  • Measurement built on cost-per-case and return, not vanity numbers
  • Visibility across SEO, AEO, and GEO for the new search landscape
