Your trusted business adviser
Hi, I’m Robert Jones.
I’ve spent more than 20 years working alongside some of North America’s largest ad agencies and data analytics firms, and just as many years deep in system engineering. That mix is rare, and it’s the reason 410 exists.
Most businesses don’t struggle to write a plan. They struggle to carry it out. I close that gap by pairing rigorous research and honest auditing with the technical infrastructure it takes to scale, so your strategy shows up in your numbers.

The model
What is a Fractional CMO?
A fractional CMO is a senior marketing executive who works with your company part-time or by the project. You get the judgment and leadership of a seasoned CMO, without the salary, benefits, and long-term commitment.
At 410, the role goes further than campaigns. I lead operational and business strategy, audit what’s working (and what isn’t), and run deep market research for businesses in Ooltewah and Collegedale. Whether I’m alongside a large agency or building a back-end system from scratch, I step in to lead and execute like a member of your team.
The short version: executive-level marketing and operations leadership, sized to the business you actually have.
What to expect on day one
Six ways I put your business in motion.
From the first week, work centers on the levers that move revenue and the operational friction that slows it down.
Brand & Media Development
Messaging frameworks and creative assets built to stay with your ideal customer long after they scroll past.
Business Leadership
A senior partner who mentors your internal team and keeps day-to-day execution lined up with your goals.
KPI Optimization
Custom real-time dashboards show exactly what’s working, so we can double down on it and cut what isn’t.
Growth Strategy
Bold, data-backed roadmaps for product launches, new markets, and the pivots that keep a business ahead.
Process Engineering
We remove internal friction and build technical systems that keep pace as your lead volume grows.
Where the impact is biggest
Is a fractional CMO the right fit for your business?
The businesses I help most are usually at the same turning point. If a few of these sound like you, we should talk.
See if we’re the right fit- You’ve outgrown freelancers and “lead gen” tactics, and you need one cohesive strategy.
- You’re scaling quickly and need leadership to bring order to the chaos.
- Your CAC keeps climbing, and it’s time to reset how you acquire customers.
- You want senior expertise without a $250K+ full-time executive salary.
- Your operations or tech stack have become the bottleneck and need an honest professional audit.

Senior-level direction without the overhead of a full-time hire.

Straight answers
Fractional CMO questions, answered.
The things Ooltewah and Collegedale business owners ask most before we talk.
What is a fractional CMO?
A fractional CMO is a senior-level marketing leader who works with your business part-time or on a project basis. You get executive-level strategy, leadership and accountability for results without the cost of a full-time hire.
How much does a fractional CMO cost compared with a full-time hire?
A full-time senior marketing executive can run $250,000 or more per year in salary alone. A fractional engagement is scoped to your roadmap, so you pay for the leadership you need and can scale it up or down. Because pricing depends on scope, the quickest way to get a number is a short conversation with Robert.
Who is a fractional CMO best for?
Mid-sized businesses that have outgrown freelancers and need one cohesive strategy, are scaling fast and need leadership to manage the chaos, are watching customer acquisition costs climb, or have operations and technology that have become a bottleneck to growth.
Do you work with businesses in Ooltewah and Collegedale?
Yes. 410 Marketing & Consulting serves businesses in Ooltewah and Collegedale, Tennessee, providing fractional CMO services on a part-time or project basis.
What is the difference between a fractional CMO and a marketing agency?
An agency executes campaigns. A fractional CMO sets the strategy, owns the results and directs the people who execute, including your internal team, agencies and freelancers. 410 also audits operations and technical systems, so growth is not held back by the back end.
What happens in the first days of working together?
We start with market intelligence and a hard look at your KPIs, brand and operations, then build a data-backed roadmap. From there the work covers brand and media development, leadership for your team, real-time KPI dashboards, growth strategy and process engineering.
