How to Transition to Fractional Executive Roles After 50
from Late-Career Conversations with Fexingo: 50+ Professionals, Encore Careers, and Pre-Retirement · host Fexingo
Fractional executive roles—part-time C-suite positions—are booming in 2026. In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore why companies hire fractional CFOs, CMOs, and CTOs, and how experienced professionals over 50 can package their expertise into six-figure fractional engagements. Lucas breaks down the economics: a typical fractional CFO earns $5,000 to $15,000 per month per client, with many holding 2-4 clients. The hosts discuss a real case: a former VP of marketing at a mid-sized retail chain who transitioned into a fractional CMO role for three startups, increasing her total compensation by 20% while reducing her hours by 30%. They also cover how to build a pipeline, set pricing, and avoid common pitfalls like scope creep. If you're 50+ and want to keep working on your own terms, this episode gives you the blueprint. #FractionalExecutive #EncoreCareer #LateCareerTransition #PreRetirement #CFO #CMO #CTO #Consulting #SideHustle #WorkLifeBalance #CareerPivot #PartTimeExecutive #FreelanceEconomy #Leadership #BabyBoomer #Careers #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
