Elevate Your Marketing Strategy Without The Executive Salary
Scaling your solution for a more habitable planet requires a sophisticated marketing strategy to attract potential investors, partners, and customers. You need an experienced marketing strategist, but you don’t want to take budget away from research and development. Our factional-CMO services for Series A/B cleantech companies is your bridge to success.
What Your Message Is Missing Without Strategic Marketing
Every day without strategic marketing is a day your climate solution isn’t reaching the audience who can help you scale and delaying deployment for those who will benefit from your technology. As a founder, you don’t have time to devote to important marketing decisions like how to effectively tell your story, how to support that story with social media or what to highlight in your next newsletter.
Missing marketing leadership is costing you:
- Scattered marketing efforts that waste budget without generating qualified leads
- Investor narratives that lack sophistication for later-stage fundraising
- Go-to-market strategies that can't scale beyond founder-led sales
- Internal team spinning on tactical execution without strategic direction

Common Questions
How is this different from hiring a full-time CMO?
You get CMO-level strategic thinking and execution oversight at a fraction of the cost. You don't get 40 hours per week, but most growth-stage companies don't need that. They need focused strategic direction and execution guidance, which we provide.
What stage companies is this best for?
This is ideal for Series A and Series B companies that have product-market fit and are ready to scale marketing but can't justify a full-time CMO hire yet. If you're pre-seed or seed, our Monthly Marketing Support might be a better fit.
Do you replace our existing marketing team?
No. We work alongside your team, providing strategic direction and mentorship. We help your team level up while executing high-impact initiatives together. Many clients transition to a full-time CMO hire once they scale further.
What's the typical engagement length?
Most clients engage for 6-12 months as they scale from Series A to Series B or beyond. Some continue long-term as their fractional CMO. We work month-to-month , so you're not locked into a long-term contract.
How do you handle confidential company information?
We sign comprehensive NDAs and treat all strategic information with complete confidentiality. We've worked with dozens of startups in sensitive growth stages and understand the importance of discretion.
Can you help us build our marketing team?
Absolutely. Part of our role includes advising on team structure, recruiting strategy, and interviewing candidates. We help you build the right team for your growth stage and budget.
