When to hire a Fractional Acquisition Marketing Manager
Hire an Acquisition Marketing Manager when new customer growth stalls or gets more expensive and nobody on your team owns the numbers end to end.
CAC keeps climbing
Your cost per acquisition has risen for several quarters and no one can say which channel, audience, or landing page is driving it.
Ad spend with no clear return
You are spending on Google, Meta, or LinkedIn but cannot tie that budget to qualified leads, trials, or revenue.
One channel carries everything
Most new customers come from a single source, and a platform policy change or rising bid prices would stall your pipeline.
Attribution you do not trust
GA4, your CRM, and ad platforms all report different numbers, so budget decisions are made on gut feel.
Growth targets after a raise
You just raised or set aggressive new-customer goals, and your current team lacks someone who has scaled acquisition spend profitably before.
The benefits of hiring a Fractional Acquisition Marketing Manager
You get a senior acquisition operator running your channels and reporting against CAC, payback, and pipeline, without carrying a full-time marketing salary while you figure out which channels scale.
Own your CAC targets at part-time cost
A senior operator manages spend across Google Ads, Meta, LinkedIn, and organic for a monthly retainer instead of a full-time salary, bonus, and benefits.
