Nobody is handling marketing in your early-stage startup.
You run marketing campaigns sporadically, not entirely happy with the results, and don't quite know which of your efforts are effective.
You are planning to scale your business and need to structure the marketing function and start taking decisions based on data.
You have a marketing department and would like to have a second unbiased opinion on the marketing strategies you pursue.

Previous Experience
Why hire an outsourced CMO if you can hire a full-time head of marketing?
X4 times cheaper. In 2020, the average yearly salary of a tech startup CMO was $143K. Outsourced CMO does not receive a salary. We charge per completion of a sprint. Every project is unique, though in general, it takes 12 sprints to build a marketing system for a B2B SaaS from ground zero. One sprint costs $2,8K.
12 X $2,8K = $33,6K. That’s x4 times less expensive than hiring an in-house CMO! Moreover, you don’t spend on insurance, office utensils, profit sharing, and more. You get the flexibility to choose the number of sprints per month, quarter, or year.
No HR hassle. Forget probation periods, recruitment cost, the pain of contract termination. There are no retainer contracts or long-term commitments from your end. We document the completion of every sprint. Should you wish to terminate the contract at any stage – you are free to do it and get a transparent and detailed handover.
Why hire an outsourced CMO if you can hire freelancers?
A tech startup would need a copywriter, web developer, data analyst, SMM manager, PPC manager, designer. Congratulations! You are now a full-time people manager of a marketing team.
You may find outstanding marketing professionals in freelance marketplaces. Each of them will be a top-notch narrow-field expert and advocate for the use of their marketing channel. In the end, you will have your marketing channels fighting against each other instead of working like a well-oiled machine.
You will have people accountable for making designs, writing texts, posting on social media, etc. No-one will be responsible for your market share, customer experience, and revenue.
Why hire an outsourced CMO if you can do everything yourself?
It’s an option if you know how to build an efficient marketing system and have enough time to do it. In this case, you may consider changing your position on LinkedIn to CMO. Whichever approach you take: experimentation or careful planning – doing it right may become your part-time or even full-time job.
