yorCMO
yorCMO provides fractional marketing services, allowing businesses to engage shared Chief Marketing Officers (CMOs) to develop and implement marketing strategies, along with other approved services and products. Franchisees operate under three models: Solo (single CMO), Firm (with associate CMOs and recruitment commissions), or Lite. The target market includes businesses offering products and services to other businesses or consumers, competing in the fractional marketing space.
