01The model
One expert. Several companies. One practice you own.
A fractional CRO leads revenue for each client a few days a month — building the process, hiring the team, and owning the number. Each pays a monthly retainer. Many add equity, because you're building the thing that drives their valuation.
Hypothetical illustration. Not a typical result or a guarantee of earnings.
02A letter to sales leaders
You already know how to build a revenue engine. The only question is who gets to own what it produces.
You've hired the reps. You've written the playbook, built the pipeline, fixed the forecast, and coached people who were about to quit into people who carried the team. You know what most founders will spend years and millions learning the hard way.
For all of that, you're paid a salary set by a band, a bonus set by a committee, and — if you're lucky — a sliver of equity that vests long after you've built the thing that made it valuable.
Now look at the other side of the table. Thousands of companies doing a few million a year are stuck in the same place: the founder is still the best salesperson in the building, and the team has no process, no forecast and no coach. They desperately need a revenue leader — and can't justify a full-time executive salary to get one.
That gap — between what these companies need and what they can afford — is the opportunity. A fractional CRO fills it.
It isn't a new idea. Fractional CFOs have worked this way for decades. What's new is that remote work made it normal for a company to have an executive who isn't in the building — and founders now look for revenue leaders the same way.
But knowing the opportunity exists and landing your first three clients are two very different things. That's what our program is for.
03The work
The work you're already great at. For several companies.
Build the sales process

Hire and coach the team

Install pipeline and forecasting
Give the founder a forecast they can take to the board — and believe.
Own the revenue strategy
Pricing, packaging, channels and targets — the decisions that move valuation. And when your clients need reps, RemoteRep's network of remote sales talent is behind you.

05Who it's for
This is not for everyone. Please read before you apply.
This is for you if…
- You've hired, managed and coached a sales team — not just been on one
- You've owned a number bigger than your personal quota
- You want to be paid for outcomes and ownership, not hours
- You'll put in focused work to land your first clients
This is not for you if…
- You've never managed people — start with our remote rep roles instead
- You want a guaranteed paycheck with no ramp-up
- You're looking for a get-rich-quick scheme. This is a real business.
- You won't talk to founders about their numbers
06Questions
Fair questions.
Do I have to quit my job to apply?+
No. Applying and taking the call commits you to nothing. On the call we'll talk honestly about timing and how people make the transition.
What does the program cost?+
We cover the investment on the call — after we know whether your experience is a fit. We'd rather not quote a price to someone the program can't help.
Is equity realistic, or just a nice idea?+
Equity is common in fractional executive work because you're building what drives the company's value. The program covers how to structure it properly so it's worth something.
Do I need to have been a CRO or VP before?+
No. You need real experience leading a sales team and owning a number. Titles vary; results and leadership matter more.
You built revenue for someone else. Now build it for yourself.
Four quick questions, then pick a time for your strategy call.
