I liked this idea

There should be an option NO, I don't think there should be, as this encourages hiring a CMO and leaving him responsible for advertising, micromanagement after a while is really annoying, hiring a CMO for these cases would make us more comfortable decide on larger planning plans for the company.

Could you clarify your comment? I read it to mean that you believe the CMO is an existing option that should be used by all players regardless of their game play strategy and playing style.

It is entirely valid for you to support and defend the CMO option for your style of play. I believe it is much less valid for you to believe that the CMO is the best option for my, and or other players', chosen style of play.
