Frequently asked questions

Q: Which service is right for my organization?

A: It depends on your current situation and goals:

Choose Fractional Marketing Partnership if: You need ongoing strategic leadership but can’t justify a full-time CMO. You want someone embedded in your team providing direction, execution, and capacity building.

Choose Mission-to-Movement Brand Strategy if: You’re launching, rebranding, or your current brand doesn’t reflect the quality of your work. You need complete transformation—positioning, messaging, visual identity, and digital presence.

Choose Campaign Strategy & Execution if: You have a specific campaign need (fundraising, awareness, program launch) with a defined timeline and clear objectives.

Choose Marketing Capacity Building if: Your team needs to build internal marketing capabilities so you can sustain momentum independently and reduce reliance on external partners.

Choose Partnership Marketing & Revenue Enablement if: You have corporate partnerships worth $500K+ annually where activation is inconsistent, partners are asking about value, or renewals are getting harder.

Choose Organizational Marketing Infrastructure if: Your team is overwhelmed, experiencing scope creep, or marketing feels like constant firefighting. You need systems, not just strategy.

Q: Can we combine services?

A: Absolutely. Many clients combine services—for example:

  • Fractional Marketing Partnership + Partnership Marketing (embedded leadership focused on partnership revenue)
  • Mission-to-Movement Brand Strategy + Campaign Strategy (rebrand followed by launch campaign)
  • Fractional Marketing Partnership + Capacity Building (strategic leadership while building internal team capabilities)

We customize our approach based on what you actually need, not what fits our package structure.

Q: What is "fractional" and how does it work?

A: Fractional means part-time, ongoing engagement—typically 1-3 days per week over 6-12+ months. How it works:

  • We embed ourselves as part of your team (not external consultants)
  • Regular strategic planning sessions and ongoing execution
  • Attend key meetings, collaborate with your team, interface with stakeholders
  • Provide senior-level strategic thinking without full-time cost
  • Flexible—scales up or down based on your needs and growth

Q: Do you offer one-off projects or hourly consulting?

A: Generally no. We focus on partnerships where we can embed deeply enough to create meaningful impact. One-off projects and hourly work don’t allow for the depth we believe produces the best results.

Minimum engagement is typically 2-3 months for project-based work, 6 months for fractional partnerships. Exception: If you’re a past client and need specific short-term support, we can be flexible.
