Fractional CMO in Social Media for Dental Practices

What fractional cmo means inside Social Media for Dental Practices

A fractional CMO sets the marketing strategy, defines positioning and the ICP, builds the channel plan, and leads or coaches the execution team. They give a growing company senior judgment without the cost or commitment of a full-time hire.
