Marketing Consultancy FAQs.
What is a fractional CMO?
A fractional CMO is an experienced chief marketing officer engaged part-time — typically a few days a month. You get senior strategic leadership, team direction and board-level reporting at a fraction of the cost of a full-time executive hire.
How is consultancy different from your marketing delivery services?
Consultancy is advice, diagnosis and planning: what to do and why. Our digital marketing and SEO services are delivery: doing the work. Some clients use only consultancy and brief their own teams or agencies; others use both.
Will you review my current agency?
Yes. We run independent agency and spend reviews, assessing performance, pricing and reporting quality, and we are happy to recommend keeping an incumbent when the work is genuinely good.
What does marketing consultancy actually deliver?
A clear, evidence-based answer to what you should do next and why. Typical deliverables include a market and competitor assessment for your islands, a positioning and messaging framework, a prioritised marketing plan with budget guidance, a measurement framework, and — where useful — agency or team recommendations. It is deliberately practical: something your team can execute on Monday, not a strategy deck that sits in a drawer.
How much does a fractional CMO cost compared with a full-time hire?
A fractional engagement is typically a few days a month, so you pay a fraction of a senior salary with no recruitment fee, benefits, or long-term commitment. For most Caribbean businesses turning over enough to need marketing leadership but not enough to fund an executive team, that is the difference between having senior direction and having none. We scope days and cost after the free consultation and review them quarterly as your needs change.
Is consultancy suitable for a small business?
Yes, and often it is the highest-value first step. A short diagnostic engagement can stop months of wasted spend by identifying the wrong audience, a weak offer or a broken conversion path before you invest in campaigns. Small businesses usually need fewer days than they expect: clarity, a plan and a measurement approach, then delivery either in-house or through us.
What are the benefits of an independent marketing review?
Independence removes the conflict of interest in asking an agency to grade its own work. We assess performance data, spend efficiency, reporting quality, creative and channel mix, and tell you plainly what to keep, fix or stop. Clients frequently keep their incumbent agency after a review with a sharper brief and better reporting — which is a perfectly good outcome and usually pays for the review several times over.
