What is fractional GTM?
Fractional GTM (Go-To-Market) is when a company brings in an experienced senior revenue leader, usually a CRO or CMO, part-time, to design and run its growth strategy.
How much does fractional GTM cost compared to a full-time hire?
Fractional GTM typically costs a fraction of a full-time hire, with no benefits or severance. It's scoped to the work.
When is the right time to hire fractional GTM?
The right time for fractional GTM is when founder-led sales has flattened, you're not yet ready to take on a full-time executive, and the next stage of revenue needs someone senior.
How is fractional GTM different from consulting?
A fractional GTM operator works inside your company with the team, helps make decisions and looks at the revenue number every week. Consulting usually stops at recommendations.
Does fractional GTM work for non-SaaS businesses?
Yes. Fractional GTM works wherever revenue depends on how you sell, market and look after customers. We work with B2B software and tech-enabled services most often, and it applies to other businesses too.
How do I know if fractional is right for my company?
Three signals: (1) you have validated product-market fit, (2) revenue has plateaued at the current motion, and (3) you cannot yet justify a full-time executive hire. If all three are true, fractional is usually the right next step.
