FAQ
Straight answers about fractional sales leadership, how we work and what it costs.
A fractional head of sales is a senior sales leader who works with your business part time, usually half a day to two days a week. They set sales strategy, build process and lead your team without the cost or commitment of a full-time executive.
A sales consultant usually advises and hands over a report, while a fractional head of sales leads the function and is accountable for results. We do both: an audit gives you the plan, and a retainer means we stay to put it into action alongside your team.
A fractional sales leader makes sense when you need senior sales expertise but aren’t ready for a $250,000+ hire. Common moments include moving beyond founder-led sales, after a funding round, entering a new market, or when a sales team needs direction while you recruit.
Fractional sales leadership in Australia typically costs a fraction of a full-time executive package, with market day rates commonly between $1,250 and $2,000. Our engagements start with a fixed-fee audit, and retainers start from half a day a week. Book a call for a tailored quote.
