Summary

Have you considered working in a fractional role with your clients? 

The most common fractional roles include fractional chief financial officer, chief marketing officer, chief operations officer and chief people officer. 

Some of our clients come to us already offering fractional packages. Or we help them pivot into a fractional role after joining $ix Figures Lab because it elevates their position in the marketplace and reflects the value they are creating for their clients already.

In this episode, Elizabeth Cook, a coach in Six Figures Lab, and I will talk about working in a fractional role, and I’ll share why I hired a CMO this year.

You will learn why your clients might consider hiring you in a fractional role — instead of hiring a full-time employee, what a fractional role might look like, and how to start re-positioning yourself to sell fractional services.
