Fractional Marketing Leadership

Marketing that
builds
not just advises.

Senior marketing leadership for construction tech and proptech startups. We get in the room, do the work, and leave your team ready to run.

Why MarketLoft

Built different,
on purpose.

01
Small by design.

We cap our roster to 10 active clients to protect service quality. Existing clients have the right to approve any new clients that might overlap in product areas. That means we're invested in your success, not chasing the next dollar.

02
Construction tech expertise.

15+ years combined experience in construction technology across Autodesk, Pype, and ConCntric. We know the buyers, the sales cycles, the trade shows, and the competitive dynamics before day one.

03
Day 1 your team is ready.

We build the strategy, systems, and documentation so your first full-time marketer walks in on day one knowing exactly what to do. That's not consulting — that's an investment in your team.

Common Questions

What you need to know.

What is a fractional CMO?

A fractional CMO is a senior marketing executive who works with a company on a part-time or contract basis. They provide the same strategic leadership as a full-time CMO — go-to-market strategy, team direction, demand generation, positioning — at a fraction of the cost. Ideal for startups and scale-ups that need senior expertise without a full-time headcount.

How is MarketLoft different from other fractional CMO services?

MarketLoft brings rare depth in construction technology marketing with 15+ years combined experience. We cap our roster to 10 active clients to protect quality. Every engagement ends with documented processes your next hire can use from day one — that's an investment in your team, not just a consulting engagement.

What industries does MarketLoft specialize in?

MarketLoft specializes in construction technology and proptech — including preconstruction software, construction management platforms, and construction tech SaaS. We also serve early-stage B2B SaaS companies. Our construction tech expertise spans 15+ years across Autodesk, Pype, and ConCntric.

How much does a fractional CMO cost?

MarketLoft offers three retainer tiers: Steady ($3,000–$5,000/month, 10–15 hours), Momentum ($6,000–$10,000/month, 20–30 hours), and Full Send (custom pricing, 40+ hours — includes the full fractional team). Fixed-price packages and standalone deliverables are also available. A full-time CMO typically costs $250,000–$400,000 annually including benefits.

What does a fractional CMO engagement look like day-to-day?

Depending on the tier, engagements include strategy calls, standup attendance, direct ownership of deliverables, vendor and agency direction, and executive alignment. We operate as a genuine member of your leadership team — not an outside consultant who shows up monthly with a report.

Do you work with companies outside of construction tech?

Yes. While construction tech and proptech are our primary verticals, we work with early-stage B2B SaaS startups and scale-ups across industries. Our go-to-market frameworks, ICP development, ABM programs, and content strategy capabilities apply broadly to B2B companies at the seed through Series B stage.

How It Works

From first call to full speed.

We keep the process simple. No lengthy RFP cycles, no back-and-forth for weeks. Here's what working with us looks like from day one.

Step 01
Discovery Call

Free, no-pressure 30-minute conversation. We learn about your company, goals, and challenges. You learn how we work. No commitment required.

Step 02
Proposal

Within 48 hours, you'll receive a clear proposal — recommended package or retainer tier, scope of work, timeline, and pricing. No fluff, no surprise line items.

Step 03
Contract & Kickoff

We sign a straightforward contract, set up your Slack channel and shared workspace, and schedule your kickoff call. Everything is async-friendly from day one.

Step 04
We Get to Work

No ramp time, no learning curve. We move fast, communicate clearly, and start delivering value in week one. Your future team will thank you.

A note on communication: We work via async Slack — it's how we stay in sync without meetings eating everyone's day. We're responsive and communicative, but we're not on-call 24/7. Expect thoughtful replies, not instant ones.

Work with us

We're selective.
That's the point.

We cap our client roster to protect service quality. When we're at capacity, qualified companies go on our waitlist. Tell us about your situation — we'll let you know where you stand.
