Fractional CRO
A Fractional Chief Revenue Officer (CRO) is a high-level revenue strategist who works part-time or on a contract basis to help businesses drive sales, optimize revenue streams, and scale their go-to-market (GTM) strategy without the full-time cost of a traditional CRO.
What Does a Fractional CRO Do?
A fractional CRO focuses on aligning sales, marketing, and customer success to maximize revenue growth. Their responsibilities typically include:
Sales Strategy & Execution: Refining sales processes, pipelines, and forecasting.
GTM Optimization: Improving lead generation, conversion, and customer acquisition.
Revenue Operations: Aligning sales and marketing for predictable revenue growth.
Hiring & Coaching Sales Teams: Training and mentoring sales reps to close bigger deals.
Partnership & Expansion Strategy: Identifying new revenue opportunities (e.g., channel sales, upselling, cross-selling).
Tech Stack & Data-Driven Decisions: Implementing CRM tools and analytics for performance tracking.
Why Hire a Fractional CRO?
For Startups & SMBs: You need CRO expertise but don’t have the budget for a full-time hire.
For Scaling Companies: You need strategic sales leadership before committing to a full-time CRO.
For Turnarounds: Your sales team is underperforming, and you need rapid revenue optimization.
Who Needs a Fractional CRO?
Startups needing faster revenue growth
Companies struggling with scaling sales operations
Businesses looking to improve sales & marketing alignment
A fractional CRO is like a revenue architect: they design, implement, and optimize a company’s entire revenue engine while offering the flexibility of a fractional, high-impact role.
