FRACTIONAL CMO + MARKETING SYSTEMS

The only thing we don't do is close the sale. That part stays yours.

I can't tell what's working.
"Competitors with worse products rank above us."
"I'm still the one closing every deal."
"We have a CRM. Nobody uses it.
"
None of that is a marketing problem. It's a systems problem. That's the part we fix.
Most agencies sell you a service and send a report nobody reads. We take the director of marketing seat, own the plan, and answer to you.
Strategy, budget, and a calendar you can actually see. We pick the channels worth your money and drop the ones that aren't.
Website, SEO, CRM, pipelines, and follow-up automations on the SIMPLE platform. Our integration team hooks it into what you already run.
Content, email, social, and lead lists for your team. If you're close enough to us, we'll plan the event too.
One plain-English report a month. Where leads came from, what happened to them, and what we're fixing next.
Your salespeople hear what buyers want before anyone else does. So we ask them. Regularly. Then we build the marketing around what they tell us instead of guessing from a conference room.
Fair warning: when this works, your sales team gets busy. We'll tell you early when it's time to hire.
THE ONE THING WE WON'T DO: SELL FOR YOU. We hand your team warm leads and a system to close them. Closing is yours.
Your buyers are already searching for what you sell. Some type it into Google. More of them ask ChatGPT, Gemini, or Perplexity. If your site doesn't answer their question clearly, somebody else's does.
So we build for SEO and AEO (answer engine optimization) from day one. Search traffic is the cheapest lead you'll ever get. Paying for ads while ignoring it never made sense to us.
visits from AI search tools like ChatGPT and Google's AI answers, in three months
contacts on their email list, built over one year
blog posts a month, each one answering a question their buyers actually ask
new salespeople hired to keep up with leads that grow month over month
Great product, deep technical know-how, and a website that offered exactly two ways to reach them: a phone number and a contact form. A LinkedIn page with no posts. Different branding depending on which channel you found. Most of their buyers never knew they existed.
Rebuilt the whole website. Built the SEO and AEO around what food and beverage developers search for. Started publishing 4 to 8 posts a month, put short contact forms right inside the posts that were already ranking, and kept social and a monthly email going out on schedule. Every lead now lands with the right salesperson automatically.
Standing check-ins with their leadership and sales team. The reps send us their trade show schedule, we build the marketing around it, and we hear firsthand which flavors buyers are asking about before it shows up in a report.
One rep suddenly stopped getting lead alerts. Everyone else was fine. We traced it to his email quarantine and got it fixed. Nobody hires a CMO for that. It's still the job.
One post about which flavors pair with peppermint showed up in about 3,800 AI-generated answers. That's 3,800 times a buyer asked a question and got their answer instead of a competitor's.

I've sat in the marketing seat for manufacturers, a downtown office building, a nonprofit accelerator, and my own businesses. The pattern is almost always the same. Good company, decent marketing, and nothing connecting the two. Leads sitting in an inbox. A CRM nobody trusts. The owner closing every deal because there's no system to hand them to.
I run more than one business myself, including a farrier route. Yes, horseshoes. So when I say the owner is the bottleneck, I'm including me.
When I'm not in a client's CRM, I'm leading the Business Readiness Program, sitting on the Downtown Janesville Inc. board, or teaching business owners how to actually use AI at Blackhawk Technical College.

A fractional CMO is a part-time marketing executive. At SIMPLE, that means we own your marketing plan, manage the work, and report results to you, for a monthly fee instead of a full-time salary.
An agency sells you a service. We take the marketing director seat: we set strategy, build the systems, run the work with our team, and report to you. We also set up your CRM and sales follow-up, which most agencies don't touch.
Our fractional CMO engagements start at $3,700 a month. If you'd rather run it yourself, a one-time SIMPLE Setup is $3,500.
Answer engine optimization. It's making your website the source that ChatGPT, Google's AI answers, and similar tools pull from when someone asks a question you can answer. It runs on the same basics as good SEO: clear pages, real answers, clean structure.
No. We're based in Janesville and work with clients across the country. If you're local, we can also plan and run events in person.
No. We find and warm up the leads, build the follow-up, and hand you a clean pipeline. Your team closes.
Twenty minutes. We'll look at what you're running now and tell
you what we'd fix first. No pitch deck.
