How it works
A partner who does the work
Step 01
Strategy
CF sets the direction
We define your marketing roadmap, prioritize channels, and plan campaigns — delivered async via Loom and shared docs after an initial kickoff call.
Step 02
Execution
Magister does the work
Content, emails, landing pages, ad copy — Magister handles the production work based on our strategic direction. No waiting on freelancers or agencies.
Step 03
Review
You approve and ship
Everything goes through you before it goes live. Review on your schedule, leave feedback async, and we iterate fast.
Powered by Magister
Your AI marketing agent
Magister is an autonomous AI marketing agent that actually does the work — not just drafts and suggestions. It connects to your tools and ships real marketing assets.
What Magister ships
What's included
Everything you'd want from a marketing cofounder — strategy, execution, and the AI infrastructure to move fast.
Marketing Strategy
Quarterly planning, go-to-market strategy, and channel prioritization based on your stage and goals.
Magister Execution
Magister handles the work — content, emails, landing pages, ads — while you focus on running your business.
Performance Tracking
Monthly reporting on what's working, what's not, and what to double down on next.
Campaign Planning
Launch strategies, content calendars, and promotion plans tailored to your audience and budget.
Positioning & Messaging
Clarify who you're for, what makes you different, and how to communicate it consistently.
Async Collaboration
Slack, Loom, and shared docs — no standing meetings. Review and approve on your schedule.
Built for early-stage teams
Founders who want a strategic partner in their corner — not just another consultant to manage.
Early-stage startups
No dedicated marketing hire yet, need strategic direction to grow
Solo founders
Doing marketing yourself and stretched too thin to do it well
Teams needing direction
Have people who can execute but lack strategic leadership
Budget-conscious companies
Can't justify a $200k+ CMO salary but need senior guidance
AI-forward teams
Want AI-powered output without building the infrastructure yourself
Ideas vs. execution
Most fractional CMOs hand you ideas and leave. A cofounder rolls up their sleeves and ships.
| Typical Fractional CMO | CF + Magister | |
|---|---|---|
| What you get | Strategy and ideas | Strategy + execution |
| Who does the work | You or your team | Magister AI agent |
| Output per month | A plan and some advice | Dozens of assets shipped |
| Time to results | Months (if you execute) | Shipping in week one |
| Ongoing meetings | Weekly syncs, status calls | Fully async after kickoff |
| Monthly cost | $5,000–$15,000 | $3,000 + AI tokens |
