Best fractional CMOs for $1M to $5M companies
8 firms and practitioners offer fractional CMO work and say they serve $1M to $5M companies. Listings that do not state a revenue band are left off, so the role page is longer. First on the list are CMOx, Foxtown Marketing and Fractional CMO. 7 publish a monthly fee, from $2,000 to $10,000 a month. The other one quotes.
The usual trigger is a company between $2M and $20M whose growth has outrun founder-led sales and whose marketing is spread across agencies with no one in charge. Fractional CMO retainers run about $4,000 to $15,000 a month, with $6,000 to $10,000 common for a $2M to $20M company; ad spend and agency fees sit on top.

How this list is built. Every firm and practitioner here offers fractional CMO work on its own site and says it serves $1M to $5M companies. Order is editor's pick, then listings that name the revenue band, then a published fee, then name. Nobody pays to appear or to move up. Full methodology.
