Growth, together.

Strategy, marketing and commercial support for owner-led creative agencies and service-based SMEs.

Experience

Growth needs a leader - not another supplier

Here’s something most business owners don’t realise. Their problem isn’t marketing. It isn’t sales. It isn’t even strategy. It’s that nobody is connecting all three.

Growth happens when strategy, marketing and sales work as one – led by a single person who connects them and stays accountable for the outcome.

That person is a Chief Growth Officer and exactly what Natterjack offers.

One senior leader. Specialist support.

Simon Mogford is the North West’s only fractional Chief Growth Officer working exclusively with owner-led creative agencies and B2B service SMEs. One senior leader with capability across strategy, marketing and sales.

You work directly with Simon, who is supported by a trusted network of specialist Associates who provide depth on demand.

Why this beats a single-service supplier

Most fractional support fixes one function. Each does their bit; none owns the whole picture. A Chief Growth Officer owns how the three work together – and can lead just the part you need now, or all three when that’s what it takes.

Your knowledge and experience are the things that got you where you are today. But they can easily be the things preventing you from going anywhere else.

Who we work with

Owner-led creative agencies, consultancies, PR firms and B2B service businesses – typically 3-30 people and £1m–£15m turnover, across Liverpool, Manchester and the North West, and in London.

Usually the founder or MD is driving most of the business development personally, has hit a ceiling and needs a senior commercial leader – not another supplier.

What's the problem?

A full-service growth partner

Clients usually come to us with one problem. Many stay because solving it tends to reveal a bigger opportunity – and they already have the one person who can adapt to your needs.

A clear direction that actually gets executed.

The  positioning and presence your business deserves.

A pipeline you can rely on, not one that runs on you.

Common Questions

What is a fractional Chief Growth Officer?

A senior commercial leader who works inside your business part-time, owning strategy, marketing and sales as one connected function rather than three separate problems. You get the breadth and accountability of a C-level hire without the cost or commitment of a full-time appointment.

A consultant advises and leaves. An agency executes one function. A fractional CGO leads — embedded in the business, accountable for outcomes, and connecting strategy, marketing and sales so each one feeds the next.

From £1,500/month, scaled to what you need. A senior in-house equivalent typically costs £80,000–£120,000+ a year in salary alone.
