In this episode, Casey breaks down one of the most transformative mindset shifts for any fractional CMO: going from seller to buyer. Instead of pitching your services with desperation, what if you could select the clients and problems that genuinely excite you? Casey shares how stepping into this new role changes the energy of your sales conversations, attracts higher-quality opportunities, and leads to longer, more fulfilling engagements. Through real-life stories—including walking away from a signed contract—he illustrates how financial stability and confidence let you stop chasing clients and start choosing them. If you're ready to lead with authority and build a practice on your terms, this one’s for you.
