A full-time CMO costs £120,000–£180,000 a year in London. A freelance consultant gives you advice without execution. Mode Partner sits between those two options: senior strategic direction, a team that executes against it, and a structure that scales with your growth. One engagement. Everything covered.
Mode Partner from £5,995 / month + VAT · Bespoke scope · 3-month minimum
A full-time CMO is the right answer eventually. At your current stage, you'd be paying £150,000 a year for someone who'll spend half their time building a team and the other half in strategy meetings. You need output, not overhead.
A marketing consultant gives you a strategy document and walks away. You still need someone to execute it. Now you have a strategy, a consultant invoice and the same execution gap you started with.
An agency retainer gives you execution without strategic direction. They do what you brief. If the brief is wrong, the execution is wrong. Nobody is taking responsibility for the overall commercial outcome.
You've tried piecing it together: a VA for social, a freelancer for ads, an agency for SEO. You're spending more time managing the team than running your business. And nobody has visibility into what everyone else is doing.
Mode Partner is a full-service marketing engagement covering brand, web, all paid channels, content, analytics and strategic direction. It's built around your business and running continuously. Scope is agreed upfront. Pricing is fixed to that scope. You're not paying for availability. You're paying for ownership of your marketing function.
Mode Partner clients get a dedicated point of contact who understands the business, quarterly strategic reviews, monthly reporting in plain English and a team that pushes back when something isn't working.
Mode Partner isn't right for every stage. We'll tell you honestly on the first call whether it is or it isn't.
