Quotes of the Episode:

"...If you work in anything other than in-house, then you're going to end up coming across some clients where you feel like you've won the lottery. They understand the impact of SEO, they are very forgiving of the time that it does take to action things or for things to start picking up." - Matt

"...I really think that it's not a case of ah, everything's on fire. You know, the world is going to end for us SEOs. You know, it's going to be, hey, let's adapt. And how do we adapt? And it's only those people who are capable of adapting that are going to make it through." - Matt
