What is a fractional CMO for medical device companies?

A fractional chief marketing officer (or FCMO) for medical device companies is an expert in MedTech sales and marketing who joins companies on a part-time basis. Fractional CMOs tend to work for several companies at a time. As they share their hours, companies get to share their cost. It’s a far more affordable solution to tackling a marketing plan from start to finish or for getting additional assistance along the way.

A fractional CMO job description is not always an easy job description to write, as it can get quite long. Basically, when anything happens in the world of marketing that you don’t know how to deal with—or it seems like nothing is happening with your current plan—call an FCMO. 

When you hire a DAP fractional CMO for medical device groups, you gain access to: 

  • Instant insights into your industry: Gain a competitive edge with our fractional CMO’s expertly crafted, data-driven marketing strategies designed for success in the medical device industry.
  • Seasoned medical device marketing leadership: Our fractional CMOs are known for their exceptional expertise in medical device strategies. With years of industry experience, they are familiar with the intricacies of the MedTech and healthcare worlds, bringing growth, revenue, and customer acquisition to your doorstep.
  • Training for improved marketing outcomes: When you partner with DAP, our fractional CMOs work to create unique training recommendations and programs. When your employees are empowered with marketing know-how, they can help propel your business to new heights once the FCMO leaves. It’s just another way that fractional CMOs are a cost-effective way to meet your ROI goals.

Rose Lee is an international marketing, product marketing management, and customer success executive who has delivered growth and profitability for organizations ranging from newer, growing medical device companies to billion-dollar industry leaders.

I've always believed that marketing in the medical device sector, no matter how effective it's looking, must go back to the data. As I drive new business and customer sales, I never stop evaluating critical metrics and reporting. That way, I know what precisely is causing the uptick in sales, profits, and customer acquisition. Clients appreciate my ability to distill complex medical devices into clear and compelling messages for their customers.

I am often called in by medical device companies to serve as their growth architect. Most often, I step in as an interim or fractional Chief Marketing Officer, Chief Customer Officer, and Chief Product Officer. My expertise lies in ROI Marketing & Analysis, Demand/Lead Generation, and Voice of the Customer marketing.

Fractional CMOs for medical device companies: frequently asked questions

What are an FCMO’s responsibilities at a medical device company?

A fractional CMO for a medical device organization is tasked with developing and executing strategic marketing plans for clients. These outsourced chief marketing officers are responsible for understanding market trends, identifying target audiences, and showcasing medical device products. 

Additionally, they work to optimize branding, advertising, and communication efforts. In short, medical device FCMOs strategize to improve a venture’s visibility and reputation to drive sales and boost market share (all while complying with critical regulatory guidelines).

An FCMO for medical device businesses develops strategies across various marketing channels based on current best practices for each avenue. A fractional MedTech consultant might recommend various digital advertising services like SEO, PPC, email, and social media. 

FCMOs in medical device marketing consulting work hard to optimize website content, user experiences, and structure to improve search engine rankings (SEO). They can also manage pay-per-click (PPC) advertising campaigns for targeted exposure and design engaging email marketing initiatives to gather leads and retain previous clients. 

After researching market needs, competitor gaps, and user preferences, fractional CMOs for medical device groups use their research to create a data-driven strategy. FCMOs use a multi-channel approach to their clients’ presence and messaging in order to help drive traffic, conversions, and brand loyalty.

There are many reasons to bring on medical device marketing consultants. Perhaps a company needs an interim CMO until they bring in a full-time role, or maybe they don’t want the extra expense that comes with a full-time hire. 

Here’s what medical device companies appreciate about fractional roles:

  • When a MedTech firm hires a medical device and healthcare FCMO, they get high-level marketing expertise without the commitment (and cost) of a full-time position. 
  • Fractional CMOs have specialized marketing skills and MedTech industry knowledge that help firms navigate complex regulatory environments and competitive landscapes. 
  • Fractional C-suite marketing officers are adept at scaling teams to correspond with current needs and budget constraints.

From guidance to execution, fractional CMOs help usher in unprecedented growth and market success for medical device companies.

Because a fractional CMO is a part-time role by design, working with existing teams is second nature to them. They can also hire new team members based on need and budget who can integrate well into the current company while also bringing something new to the table.

DAP’s fractional CMOs excel at collaborating closely with existing medical device teams to align marketing efforts with overall business objectives. First-rate FCMOs integrate into the team structure, providing direction and counsel, all while working within company culture and protocols. Fractional CMOs for medical device businesses are masters of channels such as SEO, PPC, email, social media, and upstream/downstream marketing. 

Any FCMO worth their salt fosters open communication with current team members while training them to steer the ship for when the FCMO eventually leaves. While broadening a team’s skillset, an FCMO drives growth and garners measurable results. Marketing initiatives should meet product development and sales efforts while staying current on regulatory compliance, and a medical device FMCO can help.

It’s a breeze for medical device companies to get started with a fractional CMO. Simply sign up for a consultation with one of DAP’s exclusive FCMOs, and we’ll get back to you with a time we can chat. You can expect this call to have actual value—none of that empty sales chatter. An FCMO can tell you a summary of what your company is doing well and what specific, actionable steps could bring your medical device business to the next level.

Compared to a full-time chief marketing officer, the fractional CMO rate is a far more attractive option. This part-time CMO typically charges a few hundred dollars per hour, and you only pay for what you need. Typically, a full-time CMO takes in (at minimum) a six-figure salary. A fractional CMO for medical device companies provides the information you need without the overhead you don’t.

Yes, smaller and mid-sized medical device companies are the ones most likely to depend on and benefit from fractional CMO services. In those growth stages, budgeting carefully is essential to help ensure a medical device firm’s longevity and happy stakeholders. A full-time CMO is mostly associated with long-standing, big-budget companies—often those with instantly recognizable names who can afford to shoulder that substantial financial burden.
