Frequently Asked Questions
What is fractional strategic‑communications support?
A flexible retainer (sometimes as low as 10 hours a month) that plugs senior‑level strategists and designers into your team without full‑time salaries or bloated AOR fees. Hours scale up for launches, then ratchet down during quieter quarters, protecting cash while keeping momentum.
How does fractional support integrate with existing staff?
We assign a lead strategist as your “virtual CCO desk”; they join weekly stand‑ups, route content through IR/Legal, and pull in designers or PR specialists only when needed, eliminating friction and shadow agencies.
What metrics prove ROI in a fractional model?
Same as full service: share of voice, sentiment lift, executive reach, inbound media and an added cost‑per‑result dashboard showing dollar efficiency versus prior AOR spend.
How fast can fractional support start?
We onboard in five business days: discovery call, shared Slack channel, and a 30‑day roadmap locked before week two – ideal for companies mid‑reorg or post‑layoff.
Which industries benefit most from fractional comms?
Firms facing cyclical budgets (tech scale‑ups, higher ed, healthcare, climate and mission‑driven nonprofit) where strategic bursts matter more than year‑round heavy retainers.
