01 · WHAT IS A FRACTIONAL CTO

What a fractional CTO does.

A fractional CTO is the senior technical person in your business without the salary of one. Part time, on your side of the table, accountable for what gets built and what gets bought.

The job is three things: decide what to build, decide what to buy, and be the one who says no. Most of the money that goes wrong in a small company's technology goes wrong at the third one.

The roadmap

What gets built, in what order, and what is deliberately not being built this year. Written down, so a new hire or a new vendor can read the reasoning.

Vendor and tool decisions

Which systems you keep, which you replace, and what each one is actually costing you once the seats and the integrations are counted.

The build

Specifications, scoping and review of the work, whether your developers are in house, contract or mine. Somebody senior reads the code before you pay for it.

The refusal

A written no on the projects that will not pay back. This is the part a full time hire in your first year rarely feels safe giving you.

03 · FRACTIONAL CTO SERVICES

Results from fractional CTO services.

Fourteen years of building and running the technology behind marketing systems in this valley, for practices, agencies and franchises, and the pedigree behind that is on the about page.

The evidence I can hand you before you sign is the work itself. The audit platform, the client reporting system and the published site audits are all things I specified, built and still run, and they are open for you to read.

04 · HOW IT WORKS

How my fractional CTO work runs.

Three steps, and the third one is what you are paying for.

AI does the volume underneath all three: reading the codebase, diffing the vendor contracts, drafting the specifications, taking a second pass over my own work. AI is the engine, never the product, and every judgment call on your account is mine.

What I need from you is an hour a month and a straight answer about what the business is actually trying to do this year.

  1. 01

    Assess

    I read what you have. The code, the hosting, the integrations, the vendor invoices and the seat counts. You get a ranked list of what is fragile, what is overpriced and what is fine, with the evidence attached to each item.

  2. 02

    Architect

    I write the plan. What gets built, what gets bought, what gets turned off, and the order, in language your bookkeeper can follow rather than a diagram only an engineer can read.

  3. 03

    Ship

    The work goes out and I review it. Every decision, every change and every issue carries the date I found it, and a one-pager lands every month saying what shipped, what it produced and what I got wrong.

05 · FRACTIONAL CTO COST

What a fractional CTO costs.

$1,000 a month. A full time technical leader in this market is a six figure salary plus equity, and almost every small company that needs the judgment does not need the forty hours.

Fractional CTO is one service. Two services are $1,799 a month, three are $2,499. No setup fee, no onboarding fee. The first month is priced like every other month.

Three months, because nothing real happens faster. If there is no movement by month three, you leave. Month to month after that.

The guarantee is the work and the record. Every issue gets a date the day I find it, every change is logged, and a one-pager lands every month. That is a promise about what you can see, not about where Google puts you.

You own the code, the repositories, the hosting, the domains and the accounts from the first week, and if you leave you leave with all of it and a full export.

06 · COMMON FRACTIONAL CTO QUESTIONS

Fractional CTO questions.

How much does a fractional CTO cost?
$1,000 a month here. Two services are $1,799, three are $2,499, and there is no setup fee. The wider market runs on hourly and day rates that swing enormously by scope, which is exactly why almost nobody in this category publishes a number and why mine is on the page.
What is fractional CTO?
A senior technical leader working part time inside your business. I own the roadmap, the vendor and build decisions and the review of what ships, at a fraction of the cost of the equivalent salary, and I stay accountable for the calls I make.
Is a CTO higher than a VP?
Usually, yes. A CTO owns the technology direction of the whole company and normally reports to the chief executive, while a VP of engineering owns delivery and the team underneath. In a business your size the two jobs are one job, and the direction half is the half you are missing.
How much does a fractional CTO make?
Market rates are quoted per day or per month and vary by company size and scope, so any single figure is guesswork. What matters to you is what the seat costs on your side of the table, and here that is a published monthly number rather than a rate you have to negotiate.
Who actually does the work?
I do. There is no account coordinator between us, no handoff to a junior after you sign, and the person who reviews your code is the person you talked to.
