Fractional CGO Services
A Fractional Chief Growth Officer for Wallingford Law Firms — One Owner for the Whole Revenue Engine
Your Wallingford practice invests in marketing, intake, and BD — but each one runs on its own metric and qualified leads slip through the handoffs. A fractional Chief Growth Officer takes the whole engine 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 owns the entire revenue engine on a part-time, contracted basis. Rather than owning one function like marketing or ops, the CGO works above the silos — connecting marketing, intake, sales, and retention into one accountable system instead of each working hard while qualified leads leak between the handoffs.
- Top-tier growth leadership at a fraction — roughly 20–40% — of a full-time CGO
- A fit for $1M–$100M+ firms whose marketing, intake, and sales report separately
- Typically 6–18 months, then a part-time advisory cadence
Above the Silos
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.
Demand
Measured by cases, not impressions.
Speed-to-lead
Every qualified lead answered fast — none left to cool.
Conversion
Disciplined follow-up that turns interest into signed clients.
Retention
Signed clients become repeat matters and referrals.
Where Revenue Leaks
Leaking vs. sealed: where the revenue goes
Same marketing spend, two very different outcomes — depending on whether anyone owns the whole path.
Siloed
- Three teams, three dashboards, no shared number
- Qualified leads cool off in the handoffs
- More revenue requires a bigger budget
- No one owns the revenue number
With a fractional CGO
- A single source of truth across every team
- Speed-to-lead under five minutes, every time
- Revenue grows on the spend you already have
- A single accountable owner
One Number
The growth a fractional CGO is accountable for
