Due to the popularity of my Fractional CMO services, I have now consolidated all of my social media and digital marketing consulting, PDCA Social marketing agency work, as well as influencer marketing services into this offering.A Fractional CMO is a unique type of marketing consultant that works for you, on your time, as if they were your employee.Known also as an Outsourced CMO, a Fractional CMO has the expertise of a marketing leader that joins your company team, but in a part-time fashion. What makes it different from a part-time CMO is the fact that a Fractional CMO will share their time among several enterprises, benefitting each company with the wealth of varying experiences and expertise that a Fractional CMO acquires over time.Some of the experiences I have as a Fractional CMO include:・Strategic Marketing Assistance for Multiple New Brand Launches for a B2B Company・Strategic Marketing Consultancy for CEOs of Multiple Online Brands・Digital Marketing Transformation For Ecommerce Companies・Social Media Marketing Strategy Creation and Revision for Global B2B Enterprises・Strategic Leadership for Implementation of Employee Influencer Programs for B2C Enterprises・Redesign for the Digital Content Strategy for Ecommerce Businesses・Creating Strategy and Implementing Executive Online Branding・Replacement of Reliance on PPC Ads with Inbound Content Marketing Strategy Creation and Execution・Launch of Overseas Sales Territories for B2B Brands Using Only Digital and Social Media Marketing・Management of B2C Brands Influencer Marketing ProgramContact me for more information or go to https://nealschaffer.com/fractional-cmo-services-by-neal-schaffer/

I am the lead faculty for this program with responsibility for content selection, faculty development, and program development. This is the first executive education program on social selling launched from a university which I am proud to be a member of. Other faculty instructors include social selling thought leaders Tim Hughes, Brynne Tillman, Sandra Long, and Spencer Smith.Recent studies have shown that a majority of buyers are "significantly influenced" by what they find on social networks. It's not a mystery, then, that utilizing social media as part of the sales process has become a trait of top selling salespeople, 90% of whom are leveraging social selling according to LinkedIn. These same salespeople who leverage social selling also tend to hit their quotas more often and outperform their peers.Bringing together leaders and influencers who have trained dozens of companies from a variety of industries internationally in social selling, this program goes beyond simple "I already knew that" LinkedIn training and provides participants a global perspective on leveraging social media that is applicable to both B2B and B2C salespeople.The objective of this innovative program is to train salespeople to not only master the tactical functionality that is possible with social media in order to help engage with the digital buyer at every stage of the sales cycle, but also to build internal leaders and change agents who will truly impact an organization's sales and internal digital literacy after taking the program.More specifically, this course will cover professional branding, aligning one's own brand with that of the corporation, social selling across multiple social networks (including LinkedIn), the importance of getting people onboard and minimizing internal resistance, breaking down internal barriers to social selling, better aligning social selling efforts with marketing and employee advocacy programs, and calculating the ROI of social selling efforts.
