What Is a Fractional Sales Manager?

Executive Sales Leadership — Without the Full-Time Price Tag

A fractional sales manager is an experienced sales leader who works part-time or on a contract basis, providing high-level strategy, team coaching, and process building for a fraction of the cost of a full-time executive. This model is ideal for small-to-medium businesses that need professional sales infrastructure but cannot justify or afford a full-time salary.

Senior sales leadership for 10–20 hours/week instead of a $200K+ full-time hire

Is This Right For You?

Built for Growing Businesses That Need Sales Leadership

A fractional sales manager is the perfect solution for companies that have outgrown founder-led sales but aren't ready to commit to a full-time VP. If any of these sound like you, it's worth a conversation.

Small-to-medium businesses ($1M–$25M revenue) that need sales leadership but can't justify a full-time VP
Founders and CEOs currently managing sales themselves who want to hand it off to a pro
Companies with 2–15 sales reps that have outgrown the founder-led sales model
Businesses that have a product-market fit but lack a repeatable sales process
Organizations preparing to scale their sales team and need infrastructure first
Companies that have tried hiring a full-time sales manager and it didn't work out

The Fractional Advantage

You get the same strategic sales leadership that large companies pay $200K+ for — but scaled to your actual needs. No bloated salary, no benefits, no equity dilution. Just focused, senior sales leadership delivered week in and week out.
