  1. The State of the Fractional CMO Union - Part 1

    4D AGO

    The State of the Fractional CMO Union - Part 1

    In this State of the Union, Casey explains why 2026 is the moment to go fractional - and why waiting will cost you. March 2020: his agency friends got destroyed by cancellations. His fractional clients pulled him closer. Vendors get cut. Leaders get kept.    Corporate security is dead. That IBM pension your dad had? Gone. Health insurance keeping you stuck? It's $600/month - nothing when you're charging $10K+ per client. Companies fire 15-year veterans in five minutes. Fractional CMOs hit $350/hour serving 3-5 clients at 10 hours per week.    The numbers: fractional roles doubled in two years. By 2030, 30% of the C-suite will be fractional. Agencies are dying to AI and offshore talent. But boring businesses - HVAC, franchises, banks - desperately need marketing leadership. Strategy and leadership. Not implementation.    Member wins: Mandy cleared $40-50K in one month. Sean makes more in half the time. Lisa won one deal that beat 50% of her best corporate year. She said: "I'm never going back."    Stop hiding. Commit to a niche for 90 days. Talk to strangers. Make offers. Win that first $5-15K/month client for strategy only. You'll taste the freedom and never look back. Key Topics Covered: - Vendors get cut. Leaders get kept. (March 2020 lesson)  - 30% of C-suite will be fractional by 2030. We're still early.  - Boring businesses (HVAC, franchises, banks) need fractional CMOs more than sexy startups.  - Project-based work sucks. Long-term engagements are where the money is.  - AI is creating slop everywhere. Your job is to be the signal in the noise.  - Agencies are losing relevance. Can't charge $195/hour for emails anymore.  - You don't need perfect credentials. Business owners want the best person in front of them right now.  - Commit to a niche for 90 days minimum. Can't be notable if you're for everyone.  - Talk to strangers. Build real relationships. That's the only scalable path. 🌟 Take the First Step Toward Growth with CMOx 🌟    Booking a call with our team is super easy, stress-free, and all about YOU.

    Underdogs: If you haven't ever managed someone, listen to this

    In this episode of The Fractional CMO Show, Casey talks directly to the underdog - the marketer who's never held the CMO title. Maybe you got passed over. Maybe you've been grinding in agencies where the title was never in the cards. You're sitting there thinking: how can I be a fractional CMO without the credential?    Casey breaks down why your lack of a fancy title doesn't matter. You understand how marketing fundamentally works - persuasion, pain, desire. You can deploy entire campaigns in your sleep. The gap between where you are and fractional CMO isn't as wide as you think.    Get your confidence from your intention, not your experience. Your first client might not be $15K monthly but you're proving yourself and closing the gap. Win that client. Hire one person on their dime. Now you've managed people. Do it with a second client. Now you've managed teams.    You're not starting from impossibility. You're starting from fundamentals. And that's enough to get moving. Key Topics Covered: -You can become a fractional CMO without ever holding the title  -Understanding marketing fundamentals beats having the credential  -Start with a lower-priced client ($3K) and work more hours to prove yourself  -Get your confidence from intention to serve, not from past experience  -Build management experience by hiring one person per client  -The experience gap closes by doing the work, not thinking about it  -You're not precluded from success just because you're not "the best"  -Position yourself now - fractional C-suite roles are exploding by 2030 🌟 Take the First Step Toward Growth with CMOx 🌟    Booking a call with our team is super easy, stress-free, and all about YOU.

    JAN 20

    When You Say This Phrase, It All Changes

    In this episode of The Fractional CMO Show, Casey shares a line from a boardroom member that stopped him cold: "I'm never going back." This member joined the accelerator in 2025, won their first two clients, and declared they're done with W2 work forever. Casey breaks down why this declaration changes everything.   Casey shares the moment he left his agency thinking they'd miss him - they didn't skip a beat. The agency owner tried scaring him about insurance and taxes. Turns out that "security" was bullshit. Companies fire 15-year employees in five-minute Friday meetings without emotion.    You see how the world actually works when you win that first fractional client. Your value isn't being likeable or having insights - it's identifying and solving big problems. You write your own rules. You're at every appointment that matters. You're not too old, too young, or missing the MBA - those are excuses.    Get that first client paying $3-15K monthly for strategy, not implementation. You'll taste the freedom and say it yourself: I'm never going back.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Key Topics Covered: -"I'm never going back": A boardroom member's declaration after winning their first two fractional clients - and why it hit Casey so hard -You see how the world actually works: Not the fake security of W2 work where companies fire people in five-minute meetings - the real meritocracy where big problems get big rewards -You understand your actual value: Identifying and solving big problems. Nothing else matters - not being likeable, not tenure, not showing up -You control your own time: At every appointment that matters, every family moment - no asking permission or burning vacation days to be present -You write the rules: Too old, too young, no MBA, wrong industry - all b******t excuses keeping you from the game you actually want to play -Freedom tastes different: 3-4 clients at $3-15K monthly for strategy work, not implementation - then you get it and never want to go back​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ 🌟 Take the First Step Toward Growth with CMOx 🌟    Booking a call with our team is super easy, stress-free, and all about YOU.

  4. Why Prospects Don't Care About Your Pitch?

    JAN 13

    Why Prospects Don't Care About Your Pitch?

    In this episode of The Fractional CMO Show, Casey tackles the brutal reality every fractional CMO faces: prospects just don't care about what you're offering.    Casey shares a war story about losing a private jet deal the moment he confused "FOB" with "FBO" - instantly revealing himself as an outsider faking expertise. The prospect literally laughed in his face. Most fractional CMOs show up talking about "marketing that isn't working" instead of understanding the CEO whose marriage is crumbling from late nights, or the franchisor terrified about what their FDD will reveal.    The truth? You don't know your audience well enough. Experienced executives don't hire generalists claiming to help "B2B SaaS" or "healthcare." Learn the pains. Speak the language. Become a student of one specific industry instead of pretending you can help everyone. Key Topics Covered: -Know your audience deeply: Become fluent in their language and visceral pains, not surface-level problems  -The FOB vs FBO lesson: One wrong acronym cost Casey a private jet client - proving he was an outsider faking expertise  -Real pains business owners face: Crumbling marriages from late nights, embarrassing FDD reports, losing first-to-market position, burnt out from bad consulting advice  -"B2B SaaS" isn't a niche: Go specific enough that you know when companies get funding, what software they use, and speak the insider language  -Nobody knows who you are: Stop waiting for inbound - go talk to strangers, build real relationships, announce yourself as the specialist  -Business owners spend aggressively: They don't want to save money, they want speed - and they'll pay for the right person  -Bridge the awareness gap: Prospects know something's broken but don't know a fractional CMO exists as the solution 🌟 Take the First Step Toward Growth with CMOx 🌟    Booking a call with our team is super easy, stress-free, and all about YOU.

  5. AI Tools for Fractional CMOs

    JAN 6

    AI Tools for Fractional CMOs

    In this episode of The Fractional CMO Show, Casey tackles the question every fractional CMO is asking: Which AI tools should I be using? But his answer isn't what you'd expect.    Casey admits he spent 14 months considering ditching fractional work entirely to chase the AI gold rush. Instead, he doubled down on something old-fashioned: actually knowing how to do the work. He shares war stories of letting Claude write a client report that turned out mediocre, and the AI-generated voiceover that everyone hated - until his experience proved it doubled results.    The truth? AI won't fix bad fundamentals. If you can't write persuasive copy yourself or don't understand how ads actually work, ChatGPT will just help you produce garbage faster. Learn the craft first, then use AI to speed up what you already know how to do right. Key Topics Covered: -Be a Renaissance man/woman first: Understand copywriting, design fundamentals, how ads actually work before touching AI  -Study the masters: Gary Halbert, John Carlton, Paris Lampropoulos, David Deutsch - learn persuasive copy from the greats  -AI can't replace taste, discernment, and experience: These three things are what clients actually pay you for  -Do it manually first, then use AI to scale: Write the ad yourself, make it work, then prompt AI for 50 variations  -His actual AI stack: ChatGPT and Claude for writing, Eleven Labs for voiceovers, Lovable/Bolt for quick web mockups  -Don't outsource critical thinking: AI note-takers and automation rob you of the skills that make you valuable 🌟 Take the First Step Toward Growth with CMOx 🌟    Booking a call with our team is super easy, stress-free, and all about YOU.

    Bonus Coaching with Casey - Part 2

    In this bonus episode of The Fractional CMO Show, Casey opens up a raw coaching call with people who aren't fractional CMOs yet—but want to be. These are agency owners tired of the hamster wheel, strategists stuck doing execution, and full-time employees wondering if this fractional thing is actually real.   John is worried about getting pulled into grunt work. Laura thinks she needs a bigger title before she's "qualified enough." Beth is stuck in small-town Iowa wondering how to build a sales funnel. Angela keeps getting asked for small projects when she wants to sell the big vision. Casey coaches through each scenario in real-time, cutting through the mental blocks that keep people from winning their first client.   The truth? You're already qualified. Geography doesn't matter. One client at $5K/month will completely shift how you see what's possible. Key Topics Covered: -First month delivers strategy ($10K-$12K), then transition to $10K/month engaged or $4K/month advisor ongoing -Tell clients immediately you work with marketing talent (20-40 hrs/week), not as the talent -Stop waiting for permission, another title, or more experience—you have enough today -Geography is irrelevant: Cold email, LinkedIn content, becoming the online expert—that's how you win -Ask curious questions, don't pitch: "Where are you? Where do you want to be? What's working?" Let them chase you -Fixed pricing only: Monthly retainer, no projects. When they ask for project pricing: "That's not for me. I do fixed fees." -Own the 2-year vision: Zoom out from small projects to the destination, then chunk it into campaigns they can't execute without you​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ 🌟 Take the First Step Toward Growth with CMOx 🌟    Booking a call with our team is super easy, stress-free, and all about YOU.

    Bonus Coaching with Casey - Part 1

    In this episode of The Fractional CMO Show, Casey opens up a raw coaching call with people who aren't fractional CMOs yet—but want to be. These are agency owners tired of the hamster wheel, strategists stuck doing execution, and full-time employees wondering if this fractional thing is actually real.    Casey coaches through real deals happening this week: Eric transitioning from agency to targeting private equity exits, Roxy discovering clients keep telling her she's a "really strong strategist" but she's drowning in execution, Paul pitching a $30M company, and Ernesto trying to find IVF clinic owners who want marketing leadership instead of just need it. The conversation cuts through the noise—stop pitching, stop discounting, start having curious conversations that make fractional CMO services the obvious solution. Key Topics Covered: -The 3-5 client rule: Three is ideal—more clients means mixing up names like dating multiple people at once  -Financial structure: Client pays your fee directly (~$9,700 of $10K), then separately pays for the team you build  -Luxury pricing: They should say "that makes sense" not "can you discount?"  -Warm outreach: Share your shift, ask "who should I meet?" not "will you hire me?"  -The exit conversation: Surface if they're selling in 2 years—they won't tell their team but they'll tell you  -Never pitch, discover: Ask questions until fractional CMO is obvious, then "what questions do you have?"  -Agency owners can transition without shutting down—fractional work is separate  -Discounting kills relationships: Clients who negotiate once nickel-and-dime forever  -Find people who want to grow: Show them you're the bridge—they don't need to know fractional CMO exists yet 🌟 Take the First Step Toward Growth with CMOx 🌟    Booking a call with our team is super easy, stress-free, and all about YOU.

    A Roundtable of Women, Succeeding as Fractional CMOs: Part 2

    In this episode of The Fractional CMO Show, Casey continues the conversation with a dozen successful women from the CMOx accelerator boardroom. This is part two of a webinar series where these fractional CMOs get real about building six-figure practices on their own terms.   These aren't beginners. These are women commanding $10K+ monthly retainers, managing teams of 30+ people across multiple clients, and turning down full-time job offers even when they didn't have paying clients yet. They come from automotive, financial services, SaaS, climate tech, life sciences, and consumer brands.   The conversation digs into pricing psychology, imposter syndrome, getting ghosted by prospects, why portfolio obsession is a waste of time, and the counterintuitive truth that higher-paying clients are actually less demanding. Casey laser coaches through some tough questions about what's really holding people back from charging what they're worth and claiming the expert position they've already earned. Key Topics Covered: -Why higher-paying clients are less demanding and require less "keyboard time" while creating bigger impact -Stop competing on price—establish your rate and find clients who pay it, not clients you have to convince -Corporate conditioning taught you the finish line always moves—fractional work means you set the standards -You're not competing with other fractionals—your success lives in relationships with 20-50 people over your lifetime -Getting ghosted isn't personal until they explicitly say no—keep following up with creative persistence -Pitch decks are overrated—sell the bespoke solution, not a menu of services -Some deals close in a day, others take a year of showing up consistently in someone's world -Who's a good fit: committed, coachable, vulnerable people willing to do the work and hear no​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ 🌟 Take the First Step Toward Growth with CMOx 🌟    Booking a call with our team is super easy, stress-free, and all about YOU.
