Fractional CMO for Growing Teams
Embedded senior leadership without the full time cost
As you grow, you need senior-level marketing direction to align your team, strengthen your funnel and meet your revenue goals. But hiring a full-time CMO might not make sense yet.
I’m Vanessa Sammut, a Melbourne-based fractional CMO and board advisor working alongside founders and in-house teams across Australia to bring the structure and momentum.
Are you pivoting to respond to market shifts, or growing your reach in Australia or overseas? I work with you as an embedded strategic lead giving you the direction you need.
Whether you have an established team, or are still building your in-house marketing capabilities, I develop strategy and a marketing plan fit for implementation with your available resources, ensuring you achieve the consistency and repeatability you require to scale.
Work with me, a senior strategist who leads the charge and helps you deliver, without the overhead of a full-time exec hire.
