The short answer

Is there an alternative to a fractional CMO?

Yes. A team that ships every day from $199 a month, not a day a week from $5,000.

Questions we get

Your questions, answered.

When you need a senior leader to manage people, agencies and a large budget. Many teams use both: the leader sets direction and Founder Layer does the daily work.

Yes. Your CMO sets the rules and approves the work in the Brand Wiki and the gate. The team executes every day.

No. Plans are monthly. Leave anytime with your Brand Wiki and your content history.

On day one. Share your website and your first batch arrives the same day for your approval.

Starter is $199 a month, Growth $699 and Agency from $2,500. Starter and Growth start with a 3-day free trial and no card.
