Outsourced CTO
Outsourced CTO services, sized to what your business needs
Hiring a full-time CTO means a six-month search. It means a $300,000 to $500,000 price tag. And it means betting that one person fits a job your company may only need ten hours a week for. An outsourced CTO gives you the same leadership. Sized to the work you actually have.
This fits real businesses already making money: manufacturers, distributors, and service companies. Somebody needs to own the website and the systems. Somebody also needs to own the tech companies you pay, and the plan. For most of these companies, that job takes ten hours a week.
One thing worth knowing: most outsourced CTO firms are staffing agencies. They offer an offshore team and a fancy title. I'm one person who makes the calls and does the hard builds myself.
What you're outsourcing to me
Your real tech bill
Every subscription, license, and hosting bill checked. Most clients pay for this with what we cut.
One person owns your systems
Your website, your customer list, your email, and your data. Owned start to finish, by one person.
Watching tech companies for you
Quotes checked. Contracts negotiated. Work checked by someone who knows what it should cost.
A plan, built by hand
A quarterly tech plan tied to money coming in, and I build it myself.
Proof, not promises
For one American manufacturer with no one running tech, I own the website end to end. It's credited with $23 million in sales leads. No cold calls.
Frequently asked questions
How is this different from hiring an MSP? +
An MSP keeps your laptops running. An outsourced CTO decides where your tech money goes. I own the systems that bring in sales, like your website and customer list. I manage the MSP too.
What does an outsourced CTO cost? +
A set monthly fee. Usually a small slice of the $25,000 or more a month a full-time CTO costs. Most clients start under 20% of that. The first vendor check usually finds savings right away.
We already have an IT person. Do we still need this? +
Often, yes. IT staff keep things running. They rarely set the plan, negotiate deals, or build systems that bring in sales. I work above and alongside the IT help you already have.
