Fractional CMO: GTM Strategy, RevOps Design & AI Growth Stack
𝐔𝐩𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤 𝐄𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐭-𝐕𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐝 | #𝟑 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐓𝐞𝐜𝐡 𝐈𝐧𝐟𝐥𝐮𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐫 | 𝐅𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐂𝐌𝐎 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐆𝐓𝐌, 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐎𝐩𝐬 & 𝐀𝐈 𝐆𝐫𝐨𝐰𝐭𝐡 I help founders and revenue leaders turn ambitious targets into repeatable results. As a Fractional CMO, I design and direct go-to-market motions across Product-Led, Sales-Led, Partner-Led, and Account-Based plays. Every engagement is grounded in signal-based ICP targeting, a revenue model built before the first campaign runs, and the right motion for your product, buyer, and ACV. I then architect the RevOps and AI systems that scale them. Strategy and direction live with me; build and configuration sit with your team or the vendors I scope. I work across B2B and B2C, from startup to Fortune 100, with deepest experience in SaaS, financial services, and insurance. 𝐒𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐖𝐢𝐧𝐬 - Built a $3M pipeline in 5 months for an emerging SaaS platform with a custom GTM Blueprint and outbound engine - Activated Prudential's Fortune 1000 relocation market through a thought leadership-led demand strategy, generating $10M in new ARR over 24 months - Transformed Liberty Mutual's broker network from a passive database into an active revenue channel, driving $21.1M in written premiums over 18 months - Raised $14M at a $50M valuation and scaled ARR to $15M as CEO/Co-founder of OnDialog 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐉𝐨𝐞𝐌𝐤𝐭𝐠 𝐆𝐫𝐨𝐰𝐭𝐡 𝐅𝐥𝐲𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐞𝐥 My methodology is a self-reinforcing four-stage revenue system. RevOps Foundation builds the data infrastructure and operational layer that makes every other phase measurable and scalable. AI-driven Insight Generation surfaces high-impact growth opportunities from behavioral data, market signals, and pipeline patterns. Discovery and Validation tests and scales what works before a dollar is committed. GTM Strategy and Motion Design puts the validated plays into market and loops back into RevOps refinement with each rotation. Every action compounds rather than just adds up. Each rotation moves faster than the last. 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐈 𝐃𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫 **Fractional CMO Leadership:** I own your GTM motion while you focus on product and customers.
