Fractional CGO Services
The Fractional Chief Growth Officer Sierra Vista Southeast Law Firms Trust to Own Growth End-to-End
Your firm markets hard, runs an intake team, and works its referrals — while no single person owns the number they’re all supposed to move. We work above the silos and unifies demand, intake, conversion, and retention under one owner.
The Short Version
What is a fractional Chief Growth Officer for a law firm?
A fractional Chief Growth Officer for a law firm is a senior revenue executive who runs the full path from lead to signed client to repeat business on a part-time, contracted basis. 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.
- 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
- Engagements usually run 6–18 months, then ease into advisory support
The Revenue Relay
The revenue relay a fractional CGO owns
Each team runs hard, but leads cool in the handoffs. A CGO owns the whole relay and the one number it feeds.
Marketing
Measured by cases, not impressions.
Speed-to-lead
Every qualified lead answered fast — none left to cool.
Conversion
Structured pursuit from inquiry to engagement.
Referrals
Signed clients become repeat matters and referrals.
Before & After
