Maine-based

A FRACTIONAL CMO WHO LIVES HERE.

I'm based in Southern Maine and work with growing companies from Portland to York County and across the New Hampshire Seacoast. You get senior marketing leadership from someone who can be in your conference room, not just on your screen.

THE MAINE PROBLEM

GREAT COMPANIES. THIN MARKETING BENCHES.

Maine has a lot of well-run companies that have outgrown founder-led marketing. What it doesn't have is a deep pool of senior marketing executives looking for full-time roles. Recruiting a CMO here can take months, and the salary rarely fits a $3M to $30M business.

A fractional CMO closes that gap. I lead your marketing part-time: strategy, team direction, agency management, and reporting, at a fraction of what a full-time executive costs.

Because I'm local, strategy sessions, team workshops, and leadership meetings can happen in person when it matters.

FAQ

COMMON QUESTIONS

Is there a fractional CMO in Portland, Maine?

Yes. I'm a fractional CMO based in Southern Maine and I work with companies in Portland and across the state. Engagements run remotely with in-person sessions as needed.

How is this different from hiring a Maine marketing agency?

An agency executes campaigns. A fractional CMO owns the strategy and the results, and directs agencies and staff. Many Maine businesses use both. For websites and local SEO, my agency 207 Marketing handles the build.

What size Maine business is a good fit?

Most clients are between $2M and $30M in revenue, with a product or service that sells well but marketing that depends on the owner or on referrals.

Do you work outside Maine?

Yes. I work with companies nationwide. Maine and New Hampshire clients just get the option of meeting in person.
