Where does
it feel stuck?

Choose the closest pattern. Here’s what a first working session could explore.

The positioning question

They understand what you do.
But not why to choose you.

We would look at the gap between your expertise and how it’s understood—then sharpen the message around a real buying need.

What we would explore

  • Buyer and problem clarity
  • Competitive alternatives
  • Message-to-offer alignment
Start with your business

A thoughtful start.
A practical 90 days.

An illustrative engagement for a specialist consultancy ready to look beyond referrals. A sample plan, not a case study or a promise of results.

Focus over noise

Fewer priorities. More depth.

Evidence over theatre

Useful signals. Honest interpretation.

Build with the team

Shared thinking. Lasting ownership.

No false certainty

Clear hypotheses. No guarantees.

About this concept: Maya Rao and her practice are fictional, created to demonstrate the design, positioning, and enquiry experience of an Authority Site Sprint website.

Before
we speak.

What does a fractional CMO actually do?

Provides senior marketing direction around a defined business priority: positioning, planning, decision support, and a working rhythm for the team. The role connects strategy to execution without assuming a full-time executive hire.

Is this strategy, or hands-on support?

Both can be part of a defined engagement. The aim is to reach the calendar through messaging, briefs, priorities, reviews, and selected assets. Execution responsibilities are agreed upfront; this is not an unlimited outsourced marketing department.

When should we expect results?

There are no guaranteed outcomes. Clearer priorities and better ways of working can come before commercial results. Revenue impact depends on the offer, market, starting point, sales follow-through, and time available to learn.

Is Maya Rao a real consultant?

No. This is a fictional portfolio concept for Authority Site Sprint. The identity, practice, and sample engagement demonstrate website quality—not real credentials, client relationships, or results. The form below does not send or store your information.
