Do I Even Want To Be A Fractional CMO? | Live Coaching Call

So many people start Fractional work then find themselves burnt out, and questioning if this model is even a fit for them. I sat down with one of my Fractional CMO School students, for a live coaching call. Lisa came to me feeling disillusioned with the fractional model after a few client experiences, and wondering what to do next. I helped her see that didn't hate the model, she just wasn’t operating inside the right structure. She had been making the same mistakes I see others make all the time, so I asked her to come on the podcast because I KNEW her experience would be so helpful for many others. In this episode, we break down: * The biggest mistake I see CMO’s make when building out strategies (that actually overwhelms your clients too) * The most common places where Fractionals end up overdelivering in their role * A simple filter you can use to make sure you stay in your lane and only do CMO-level work * The driving analogy that helped me step into leadership and totally changed how my clients saw me (you can steal it!)

How to Sell Fractional CMO Services: Sales Secrets From a 7-Figure CMO

Sales is the one skill nobody teaches you as a fractional CMO — and it's the one that determines whether your business actually grows. Most of us got into this because we're good at marketing. Not because we love selling. For a long time, I hated it. I wasn't comfortable doing it, I didn't feel like I was good at it, and the idea of getting on a call where someone might say no felt awful. Four years and millions in client revenue later — sales is one of my strongest skills. In this episode, I'm breaking down every lesson that got me there: * The mindset shift that made selling stop feeling gross * The one thing you can do to make people feel understood before you've pitched anything, * Why I turn people away — and how it's built my business * How to lead a sales call so you're never getting interviewed * How to say your high-ticket prices without flinching. * And what you can do to get better at sales. If sales still feels uncomfortable, or it’s something you want to get better at, this episode is for you. Ready to take the next step?

How to Shift From Doing Marketing to Leading Marketing as a Fractional CMO

What you spend your time on determines everything — how visible you are to your client, how much authority you actually have, how much they'll pay you, and whether you burn out. If you've ever felt like you're executing all the marketing while your client sees you as someone who takes direction instead of sets it, this episode will help you understand why. In this episode, I break down: * The four things a CMO actually owns (and where execution lives) * The daily filter you use to know if you're staying in the right scope * Why staying in execution keeps you invisible — and what that costs you * What happens when you start setting these boundaries This shift isn't about confidence or willpower. It's about clarity on your role. And once you have that, everything changes — how your client sees you, what you charge, how much control you have over your time. Because stepping into the CMO role isn't about doing more. It's about operating at a different level. Ready to take the next step?
