Fractional marketing

A senior marketing team,by the fraction.

A seasoned lead and the designers, writers and analysts behind them, for the days you need. Across Australia, from Canberra.

Why fractional

You need a CMO's judgement and a team's output. You don't need either full time yet.

Growing B2B companies hit the same wall: marketing is too important to leave to juniors, but a full-time CMO is a big bet. Fractional marketing closes that gap. You get senior leadership and delivery for a monthly fee, and you can scale it as the business changes.

FAQ

Fractional marketing, answered.

What is fractional marketing?

Fractional marketing means hiring a senior marketing lead, or a small marketing team, for part of the week instead of full time. Companies get CMO-level strategy and hands-on delivery for a monthly fee, without a full-time salary or a long agency retainer.

What does a fractional CMO do?

A fractional CMO joins your leadership team part time, usually one or two days a week. They set the marketing strategy, own the plan and budget, report on results and manage the people, internal or external, who deliver the work.

How is fractional marketing different from an agency?

An agency delivers what you brief. A fractional team owns the outcome: it writes the strategy, decides the priorities and then does the work, sitting inside your business rather than beside it.

Who is fractional marketing for?

Growing B2B companies, often in SaaS, technology, professional services and manufacturing, that need senior marketing leadership but are not ready for a full-time CMO.

Do you offer fractional marketing outside Canberra?

Yes. Propellion Labs is based in Canberra and works with companies across Australia, in person in the ACT and remotely in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and elsewhere.
