Fractional CMO for B2B growth businesses

Senior marketing leadership, without the six-figure hire.

Most growing businesses have no senior marketer, so marketing falls to whoever is free that week.

I take it off your plate and run it properly. Strategy, board reporting and delivery, owned by one senior person, with AI doing the heavy lifting so the hours go into decisions rather than admin.

Businesses rarely stall for lack of ideas. They stall because nobody owns the decision.

Can AI replace a marketing hire?

The tools are free. The judgement is not. Here's what marketing roles actually cost, and which ones AI comes closest to replacing.

The problem

Your business has outgrown its marketing.

Most growing B2B businesses reach a point where marketing needs senior ownership, but a full-time CMO is hard to justify. A growing business shouldn't have to choose between a six-figure hire and no marketing leadership at all.

No senior marketer at the table

Marketing decisions fall to the CEO, or to whoever is free that week. Nobody owns the plan.

Activity without direction

Campaigns, content and agencies, but nothing connecting them to pipeline and revenue.

A full-time CMO is a big bet

A £120k+ salary, months to recruit, and real risk if it doesn't work out.

Proof

Two engagements. Two acquisitions.

A packaging manufacturer that was number one in Ireland and invisible everywhere else, taken into the UK and bought by a European distributor. A hosting provider publishing constantly and converting nothing, whose content programme ran across three continents before Aptum acquired them.

Why us

Marketing experience. AI acceleration. Real business growth.

The difference isn't the AI. It's knowing how to use it.

I've spent over 20 years in senior marketing roles across B2B and B2C. I use AI every day to research, draft, analyse and report faster than a traditional team could. What AI can't do is decide what matters. That's the job I'm there to do.

The AI question

Why not just use Claude or ChatGPT?

AI can generate ideas, content and analysis. But it cannot decide what matters most for your business, what to ignore, what order to fix things in, or how marketing activity should connect to commercial growth.

Marketing Converted gives you experienced marketing judgement first, with AI used to accelerate research, planning, content and reporting.

Strategic judgement

We identify the priorities that actually affect your growth.

Commercial experience
