Mini Case Study
How a Series-C workflow SaaS unified GTM leadership and cut blended CAC.
Unify GTM & Cut CAC
Problem
Fragmented positioning and channel sprawl; rising blended CAC; low demo→SQL conversion; no shared KPIs.
Intervention
- 90-day plan & cadence: weekly exec sync, BI dashboard, OKRs; rebuilt lead→demo→SQL definitions with Sales Ops.
- Position & package: clarified ICP tiers; simplified offers and pricing page narrative; refreshed homepage/hero.
- Channel P&L: paused low-return spend; doubled into intent search, partner co-marketing, and BOFU content; launched comparison/alternatives pages.
- Lifecycle: rebuilt nurture (trial, post-webinar, re-engage) and added SDR alerts; tightened hand-off SLAs.
- Team & vendors: interim leadership for demand/content; hired VP Demand and Content Lead; vendor roster rationalized.
Outcome (quarter)
- +41% SQO pipeline from inbound
- –21% blended CAC
- +9pp demo→win rate; forecast accuracy within ±8%
- VP Demand hired in 60 days; vendor costs –18%
This case shows how unifying GTM leadership, KPIs, and channel economics can grow SQO pipeline while cutting CAC, without adding headcount chaos.
Fractional CMO FAQ
Common questions about our fractional chief marketing officer services
A senior marketing leader who sets strategy and leads execution part time and is ideal when you need executive guidance without a full time hire.
Agencies execute. A fractional chief marketing officer sets direction, leads the operating cadence, manages vendors, and ties work to business outcomes.
We lead strategy and key initiatives. Execution can be covered by your team or bundled with services such as search, paid media, content, email, and optimization.
Pipeline and revenue impact first, plus acquisition cost and lifetime value, channel return on investment, conversion rates, and payback period.
We recommend at least three to six months to establish a plan and cadence, and many clients extend beyond that.
Programs typically start at five thousand two hundred fifty dollars. See Packages and Pricing for details.
