Fractional Chief Sales Officer (CSO)

Your sales team wants to win, but without a clear strategy, defined process, or aligned messaging, even your best reps are flying blind.

It is time for structured leadership if you are hitting plateaus, missing forecasts, or relying too heavily on a few closers.

That is what a Fractional Chief Sales Officer brings to the table. 

A Fractional Chief Marketing Officer is an experienced sales leader who joins your organization part-time to develop, optimize, and lead your sales function without hiring a full-time executive.

Your CSO brings the direction and accountability needed to unlock growth, from strategy to systems to sales team performance.

Your engagement may include:

• Sales Strategy & GTM Planning: Define where growth should come from and how to get there.
• Sales Process Design: Create structured, repeatable systems that move leads through the funnel.
• Pipeline Development & Forecasting: Clean up your pipeline, improve visibility, and forecast with confidence.
• CRM + Sales Tech Optimization: Ensure your tools support and do not hinder performance.
• Sales Team Coaching & Performance Management: Equip managers and reps with the tools and accountability to thrive.
• Sales-Marketing Alignment: Bridge the gap between lead generation and conversion.

• SMBs needing to professionalize and scale sales
• Founders who have grown by hustle and now need structure
• Sales teams with potential but lacking clear leadership
• Companies preparing to expand into new markets or verticals
