About C² CMO Services

Built from the trades. Built for the trades.

C² exists because home service companies do not need another person selling them marketing. They need an experienced leader on the owner's side connecting marketing, sales, vendors, CRM, technology and revenue.

The founder story

Contractor roots. Marketing experience. An operator's mindset.

Cory Cullather did not enter home services from a marketing classroom. He grew up working alongside his father as an electrician, later worked as a general contractor, and learned what it means to solve real customer problems where the work has consequences.

That field perspective followed him into more than 15 years of home-services marketing and advertising. The combination shaped a simple belief: contractors do not need another vendor selling isolated tactics. They need experienced leadership connecting marketing, sales, vendors, technology and revenue — and holding the system accountable.

Field experience. Executive growth leadership. C² understands both sides of the table — the contractor trying to run the business and the marketing ecosystem trying to influence it.

Our mission

Build predictable, profitable growth through one accountable revenue system.

C² helps home service contractors connect marketing, sales, technology and leadership so owners gain the visibility and structure to find leaks, hold partners accountable and invest smarter.

We do not exist to replace great employees or great marketing partners. We exist to make the entire system work better together.

Why C² exists
The problem is rarely a lack of activity. It is a lack of ownership across the whole growth system.
Core values

FORGE

A growth system has to be built under pressure, measured in reality and strong enough to scale.

FFacts Over FeelingsDecisions start with what the data and business reality actually support.
OOwnershipEvery important result needs a clear owner and a next action.
RRevenue FirstActivity matters only when it supports profitable business outcomes.
GGrowth Through StructureRepeatable systems create clarity, discipline and scalability.
EEarned TrustTrust is built through truth, transparency, follow-through and independent judgment.
How we think

Five beliefs shape every C² engagement.

More leads are not always the answer.

Before increasing spend, prove the company is converting and following up on the opportunities it already paid to create.

Vendors should be managed to outcomes.

Good vendors become better when expectations, data and priorities are clear. Weak vendors become easier to identify.

The CRM should tell the truth.

If stages, dispositions, source data and closed-lost reasons are unreliable, marketing decisions will be unreliable too.

Attribution is a business system.

The journey may cross search, reviews, AI, referrals, social, direct mail and direct calls. Better decisions matter more than false precision.

Scope protects strategy.

Leadership loses value when it turns into unlimited task execution. C² keeps executive time focused on high-value constraints.

We are not paid to agree.

C² challenges assumptions and recommends what the business needs — even when that is not what a vendor or internal team wants to hear.

For growth-stage contractors

Build a growth system you can actually manage.

C² brings an independent executive perspective to marketing and revenue decisions that are too important to leave fragmented.
