Only freelancers located in the U.S. may apply.U.S. located freelancers only
I'm the founder of an AI-powered, voice-first electronic lab notebook for scientific researchers. I'm a PhD scientist who built the product, and I'm now looking for a fractional CMO to own the commercial and marketing side while I focus on the product and the science. This is an early-stage, pre-revenue startup with a live product, real early users, and growing interest from research institutions. I need a marketing leader who is comfortable building from the ground up, not just executing tasks, but setting the strategy and driving it. What you'll own: Overall go-to-market and marketing strategy for a B2B SaaS product sold to research labs and scientists Positioning and messaging for a technical, scientific audience Building the early demand engine: content, outreach, channels, and early growth experiments Helping shape the story for customers and, eventually, investors You're a strong fit if you have: Experience as a CMO, head of marketing, or senior marketing lead, ideally with early-stage or B2B SaaS startups A track record of building go-to-market from little or nothing, not just optimizing existing funnels Comfort marketing a technical or scientific product (life sciences, biotech, research tools, or deep tech a strong plus) The ability to work independently and think like an owner, since you'll be the commercial half of a small founding team Details: Part-time and fractional to start, ongoing, with room to grow alongside the company Remote Please share your rate or proposal, along with relevant examples of go-to-market or marketing work you've led, especially anything in SaaS, science, or technical products To apply, tell me briefly about a product you took to market and what you did to make it work. I read every proposal.
