EMBEDDED LEADERSHIP

Fractional CRO / Growth Lead

Embedded, part-time revenue leadership for companies that have outgrown founder-led selling but aren't ready for the cost or hiring risk of a full-time Chief Revenue Officer or VP Sales. I plug directly into the leadership team, owning the revenue number and reporting results the same way I have as CRO and CGO for other companies, typically for 10–20 hours per week.

Who it's for

Companies with $2M–$20M in revenue where sales still runs informally through the founder, forecasts are frequently missed, and no one senior is clearly accountable for the number.

What's included

  • Ownership of the sales pipeline, forecast, and quota structure
  • Hiring, onboarding, and coaching of sales reps as the team grows
  • Weekly or bi-weekly leadership/board reporting on revenue performance
  • Ongoing refinement of ICP, messaging, and sales process
  • Direct involvement in complex or strategic deals when needed

Example deliverables

  • A monthly board/leadership revenue report
  • A documented sales playbook (ICP, qualification, objections, stages)
  • A 90-day revenue plan at engagement start, updated quarterly
  • A compensation and quota plan for the sales team
  • A hiring scorecard for new sales reps
