“Market Growth Consulting helped us transition marketing from our outgoing CMO to a new leader and newly built marketing organization. Their fractional CMO carried us through the transition and set the foundation for our continued success.”

Results

  • Strategic marketing leadership during extended transition period
  • Smooth Planning and Execution of MassChallenge’s Flagship Event
  • Strengthening the Marketing organization by building a content engine and repository

 

The Challenge

When MassChallenge faced a Chief Marketing Officer transition, the organization needed both strategic continuity and strong leadership to steer its marketing through a pivotal year. Market Growth Consulting (MGC) partnered with MassChallenge to deliver exactly that a strategic marketing assessment and a fractional CMO engagement.

 

The Solution

Following a strategic messaging and programs assessment, MGC appointed Jenn Jones as fractional CMO to lead the marketing function. Within her first month, Jennifer successfully took charge of MassChallenge’s flagship event, ensuring its smooth execution and maintaining brand momentum during a critical time.

Following that success, Jenn turned her focus to rebuilding the marketing organization, mentoring team members, strengthening processes, and hiring a new long-term marketing leader. Once that leader was in place, Jenn transitioned responsibilities seamlessly, as planned from the outset.

 

Outcomes

This engagement was not about replacing leadership but bridging a transition with purpose and precision. MassChallenge emerged from the collaboration with a revitalized marketing team, a clear strategic direction, and a confident new leader ready to carry the torch forward.
