Why pick HireCMO?

VS
Hirecmo vs. in-house marketers :
Does not nag you for any of that and goes straight to work from Day 1
Steps in to save the day (doesn’t take any days off for some reason)
Rapid access to senior experts around the clock for any industry, channel or niche
Objectively suggests what’s best for your revenue growth without the management/political overhead
Scale your CMO's hours up or down based on your current budget (transparent pricing too!)
Hirecmo vs. freelance marketers :
Curated CMOs with 20+ years experience in all industries
Quick and honest replacements if you’re unsatisfied with your CMO
One-stop-shop for all payments so your time isn't wasted with paperwork
Manual check-in every 2 weeks from the HireCMO team with you for quality assurance
Hirecmo vs. marketing agencies :
Handpick specialized CMOs who excel at marketing on all channels
Gain more control by speaking directly with your matched CMO
Ability to hire for short-term projects or monthly goals as desired
Individual focus on your startup’s specific needs
the others
your in-house marketers :
Spend 5-figures a year on their dental benefits and insurance
May go on spontaneous OOO trips leaving a vacuum in your team
They may not have the right depth or type of expertise needed to grow your revenue today
They may be politically inclined to say and do things that protect their job and keep you (as CEO) happy
You may not always need them full-time but you can't reduce their hours as they are paid for 40 hours a week
Freelancer marketers :
1-2 weeks needed to find qualified freelancers fit for your role
Finding replacements by yourself can be time-consuming
Dealing with multiple contracts and payment schedules for different freelancers takes too much time
Individual freelancers may lack structured accountability leaving you to manage them and waste time
marketing agencies :
Rely on a single team’s narrow expertise on one channel
Communication filtered through agency bureaucracy
Contracts are often artificially long to meet their agency pipeline goals
Attention divided among several clients, might forget your name
Why not meet our founding team over a low-stakes coffee chat? :)
