How I Structure My Contracts as a Fractional CMO (And Why I Make It Easy for Clients to Leave)

Contracts are probably one of the least exciting things we could possibly talk about, BUT I get so many questions from marketers making the leap into Fractional CMO work and feeling completely overwhelmed by the contract side of things. OR not thinking about it at all… until something happens and they've got serious regrets.

If your immediate thought is "cool cool cool, can I just copy yours?" 😂 — you absolutely can. I share exactly where you can grab all of my behind-the-scenes business systems in the episode!

In this episode, I break down:

How I structure my contracts after 5+ years of testing long-term, short-term, and month-to-month (steal the setup!)Why I DON'T lock clients into long-term contracts — and what I do insteadThe scope language that keeps you from ever being "in default" of your own contractThe tool I use to get a new contract out to a client in under 2 minutesThe sneaky little feature that gives me a heads up when a client might be about to give their notice

And at under 10 minutes, it's probably the quickest (and least painful) way you'll ever learn about contracts.
