You Shouldn’t Have to Choose Between Running Your Business and Marketing It.
You’re wearing fifteen hats. Sales. Operations. HR. Finance. And somewhere between all of that, you’re supposed to figure out SEO, social media, Google Ads, content strategy, email campaigns, and why your website isn’t converting.
You’ve tried freelancers who disappeared. Agencies that charged a fortune and sent you reports you didn’t understand. Maybe you hired someone in-house and realized one person can’t do everything.
The marketing never stops needing attention. But you’ve run out of hours.
What you need isn’t another vendor — it’s fractional CMO services that give you senior marketing leadership and a full execution team without the $200K salary.

The Problem Isn’t Your Business. It’s the Gap Between What You Need and What You Can Afford.
Most growing businesses hit the same wall. The marketing that got you here — word of mouth, a basic website, a few social posts — stops working. Growth stalls. Competitors with bigger budgets start showing up where you used to.
You know you need a real marketing strategy. But a full-time CMO costs $200K+. A traditional agency wants $10K–$20K/month and a 12-month contract. And the freelancers who fit your budget can’t see the big picture.
You don’t need more tactics. You need fractional CMO services — a marketing department that shows up every day, executes a strategy built for your business, and proves what it’s producing. Without the enterprise overhead.
A Full Marketing Department.
Without the Full-Time Cost.
Made Simpler gives you a strategist who stays through the execution. Not a consultant who hands you a plan and walks away. Not an agency that assigns you a junior account manager. A dedicated marketing team — content, design, SEO, paid media, email, social, analytics — managed by a CMO-level strategist who knows your business.
Three Steps. No 90-Day Onboarding. No Mystery.

We Choose Who We Work With. Not Just the Other Way Around.
Most agencies take any client with a budget. We don’t. Made Simpler was founded on a decision to walk away from a lucrative engagement because the client was treating people badly. That decision became Be The Better — the operating philosophy that governs every client relationship, every hire, and every interaction.
We build. We never extract. We treat our global team as colleagues, not cost centers. We tell clients the truth, even when it’s uncomfortable. And we look for clients who share the belief that business should make things better, not just bigger.

How much does it cost to work with Made Simpler?
Entry-level services start at $497/month. Full marketing programs are custom-quoted based on your needs, industry, and goals — typically ranging from $3,500 to $15,000/month. We’ll never recommend more than what your business actually needs.
How is this different from hiring a marketing agency?
Most agencies assign you a junior account manager, execute a set of tasks, and send you a report. Made Simpler embeds a CMO-level strategist who stays through the execution. You get strategy AND the team to execute it — without hiring either separately.
How long does it take to see results?
Technical fixes show impact in 2–8 weeks. Content and SEO programs typically show meaningful movement in 3–6 months. Paid media campaigns can produce results within days. We set realistic timelines before we start so you know exactly what to expect and when.
Do you work with businesses outside of Utah?
Yes. We serve businesses nationally. Our team is distributed across multiple time zones, and our systems are built for remote collaboration. Utah businesses get the added benefit of local market expertise.
What if I’ve been burned by agencies before?
You’re not alone — most of the business owners we work with have. That’s why we lead with transparency: monthly reporting tied to revenue metrics, no long-term contracts required, and a strategist you can actually talk to. We’d rather earn your trust month by month than lock you into something.
What’s the “3 Things” assessment?
It’s a focused analysis of your current marketing that identifies the three biggest things holding your business back. No fluff, no 23-page report — one clear insight and one clear next step. It takes about 15 minutes to complete and we deliver results within 48 hours.
What are fractional CMO services?
Fractional CMO services give your business senior marketing leadership — strategy, campaign architecture, team coordination, and market positioning — on a part-time or contract basis, without the $200K+ salary of a full-time Chief Marketing Officer. At Made Simpler, fractional CMO services include the full execution team, not just the strategic advice.
How much do fractional CMO services cost?
Traditional fractional CMO services run $3,000–$15,000/month depending on scope. Made Simpler’s programs start at $497/month for entry-level services and scale to full fractional CMO engagements from $3,500/month — which includes both the strategic leadership and a production team that executes.
