How to Know If You’re Ready to Be a Fractional CMO (Even If You Don’t Feel Like You Are)
Description
You don’t need to know everything to be ready for the Fractional CMO role, but you do need to shift how you see yourself and show up.
In this episode, we’re unpacking the real reason so many experienced marketers hesitate to claim the title of Fractional CMO — and it’s not a lack of skills. It’s the belief that they have to be someone else first: more data-driven, more strategic, more “official.”
Here’s what we get into:
- What being “ready” actually looks like
- How to lead confidently, regardless of your background or experience level
- The 3 core traits that matter most in the Fractional CMO role
- What to do when imposter syndrome kicks in
- How to identify your blind spots (and fill them without trying to “fix” yourself)
- The shift from task-doer to strategic partner, and how to start making it today
If you’ve been waiting for someone to tell you you’re ready, this episode is the permission you’ve been looking for.
