Episode 7: Mike King
What happens when you take a performer with a tireless work ethic and teach him SEO?
He pulls rank on the entire industry.
It hasn't taken long for Mike King to become a refreshing voice in the world of SEO, but it took him a while to get there.
SEO wasn't Mike's first job. It wasn't even his 10th job!
Mike has a background in computer programming and music. He was signed as a recording artist and toured the world performing for 8 years.
Then Mike discovered the world of SEO. To get a feel for Mike's flavor of music, watch this video of him freestyle rapping at an SEO conference.
A man of many talents, Mike is also quite busy. So I was honored when he agreed to do an interview for the jumpstart podcast.
We recorded this episode while I was in Dubai, and I am afraid that the audio quality and connection was not as high as previous episodes. But the content? It's golden.

A word from our unofficial sponsor
Today I wanted to give Leadpages a plug. I used their software to provide a lead magnet for a key piece of content and it has started to generate 10 email leads a day! Now I am in the process of using LeadPages to deliver all of my lead magnets, and hope to grow my list by 100 names a day.
The days of putting up a web form and hoping that it will work are over folks! Visit jeffalytics.com/leadpages to fix your acquisition strategy once and for all!

Highlights from my talk with Mike King
It took Mike a while to arrive at his career in SEO. Much like Cyrus Shepard. It just proves that you can still be successful without following a traditional path. In fact, you can be more successful when bringing other experiences to the table. Mike’s performance career translated very well to inspiring a crowd of marketers.
Mike has also created a strong personal brand. We heard Aleyda Solis talk about building a brand in Episode 6, and now Mike is talking about it here. Both realized that their personal brand was very valuable. So valuable that they used it to start their own agencies.
