In this episode, we’re diving into a bold, untapped idea: the Fractional Experiential Officer. While Fractional CMOs and CFOs are gaining traction in today’s business world, Breakthrough Productions is pioneering a new kind of strategic leadership—one focused entirely on the physical experience of your brand. If your company relies on live events, pop-ups, trade shows, or physical activations to connect with customers, this episode will open your eyes to a smarter, leaner way to elevate those touchpoints without hiring an expensive agency or full-time employee.
We break down what an FxO actually does and why it’s a game-changer for medium-sized businesses. From creative ideation and experience strategy to visuals and vendor connections, this role is your go-to for shaping how your brand feels in real life. It’s not about fluff—it’s about results: deeper engagement, longer customer retention, and standing out in a crowded market. And the best part? You get the brains of an 18-year experiential powerhouse… without the bloated retainers.
You’ll also hear how Breakthrough’s proven process, team expertise, and real-world execution experience are now accessible in a totally new way. This is for companies who want the strategy without the strings—those who value story-driven, sensory-rich, and ROI-backed engagement, but aren’t ready to go all-in with an agency. We walk through signs you're ready, how this fits into your marketing mix, and how to leverage this role for long-term brand growth.
Whether you’re a marketing director, brand manager, or business owner who knows there’s more power in the physical experience than you’re currently tapping into—this episode will give you a whole new perspective on what’s possible when you start thinking experientially.
