Growth Leadership · Sun Village, CA
The Fractional Chief Growth Officer Sun Village Law Firms Trust to Own Growth End-to-End
Your firm markets hard, runs an intake team, and works its referrals — but each one runs on its own metric and qualified leads slip through the handoffs. A fractional CGO sits above the silos and makes every team pull toward one revenue number.
The Short Version
What does a fractional CGO do for a Sun Village law firm?
A fractional Chief Growth Officer for a law firm in Sun Village is an experienced revenue executive who runs the full path from lead to signed client to repeat business on a fractional schedule. Where a CMO owns marketing and a COO owns operations, the CGO orchestrates across the silos — connecting marketing, intake, sales, and retention into one accountable system instead of each working hard while qualified leads leak between the handoffs.
- Executive growth leadership at roughly 20–40% of a full-time CGO’s cost
- Built for $1M–$100M+ firms where the teams don’t share one number
- Most last 6–18 months before shifting to a lighter advisory rhythm
Above the Silos
Why no one owns the baton
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.
Intake
Every qualified lead answered fast — none left to cool.
Sales & BD
Disciplined follow-up that turns interest into signed clients.
Retention
Happy clients recycle into new pipeline.
Where Revenue Leaks
What changes when one owner runs the number
Same marketing spend, two very different outcomes — depending on whether anyone owns the whole path.
Before a CGO
- Three teams, three dashboards, no shared number
- Good leads slip between teams
- More revenue requires a bigger budget
- Accountability is diffused
Aligned
- A single source of truth across every team
- No qualified lead left to go cold
- More cases without a bigger budget
- One executive owns the number
The Payoff
One number, owned and moved every week
North-star
One growth number the whole firm runs on, with a single owner on the hook for it.
The Mandate
The four legs of the revenue engine
Demand & marketing oversight
Marketing and agencies held to qualified pipeline and cost-per-signed-case — not vanity metrics.
Intake & speed-to-lead
The gap where most firms quietly lose cases, fixed.
Conversion & business development
Structured pursuit that closes.
Retention
Signed clients turned into repeat matters and a referral engine, so growth compounds.
