Fractional Chief Revenue Officer
We are actively seeking a new Fractional CRO to act as a fractional Revenue Leader to one or more clients at a time. The Fractional CRO oversees all revenue functions for each client engagement. For more context, here is a little more about the work we do.
We are fractional Revenue, Sales, & Marketing Leaders, who work directly for a company (typically between $5M - $20M) to profitably (re)build their revenue departments: marketing, sales, customer success, and RevOps. Every client engagement is custom-built, based on the needs of the company, with a focus on driving holistic revenue growth. We bring forth a holistic revenue strategy, not a silo-focused approach. First, we audit their existing environment, provide a gap analysis, and scope deliverables for marketing (brand, design, digital, top of funnel automation, sales enablement), sales (roles, comp-models, process, playbook), revenue operations (CRM, automation, tech stack), and customer success (new client implementation, account management, up-sell, and renewals), to take place over the next several months.
Additionally, we create a talent-development strategy and future recruiting roadmap for the client. If they elect to use our recruiting services, we help them find the best talent, using our recruiters to source candidates.
Each House of Revenue® FCRO leads their revenue scaling effort for the client, including developing strategies and processes, executing the tactical plan, developing internal talent, and reporting on our progress and results.
Each FCRO is supported by House of Revenue’s leadership team and peer community and is responsible for providing regular updates on their client work.
