Are you a seasoned marketing expert who's interested in becoming a fractional CMO? What does a fractional CMO even do? In this illuminating conversation, Duct Tape Marketing founder John Jantsch makes the concept of fractional CMO leadership approachable. Exploring the nuances of strategic marketing for small to mid-sized businesses, Jantsch reveals how fractional CMOs can provide high-impact leadership without a full-time commitment. He shares insights on developing systematic marketing approaches, managing client relationships, and navigating marketing challenges in an AI-driven world.

John Jantsch is a fractional CMO, speaker, and Wall Street Journal best-selling author of Duct Tape Marketing, The Referral Engine, The Self-Reliant Entrepreneur, and The Ultimate Marketing Engine. He is also the founder of the Duct Tape Marketing Agency Network, which trains and licenses independent consultants and agencies to use the Duct Tape Fractional CMO+ System. His keynotes and training motivate and engage audiences worldwide at industry and trade events.

His recommended book is an oldie but goodie: The One Thing by Jay Papasan and Gary Keller (https://www.amazon.com/ONE-Thing-Surprisingly-Extraordinary-Results/dp/1885167776).

Near his house in Colorado are two great coffee shops: The General Store in Nederland, CO, and Coal Creek Coffee in Golden, CO (https://www.tripadvisor.com/Restaurant_Review-g33447-d4650917-Reviews-Coal_Creek_Coffee-Golden_Colorado.html).
