Just about 2 years ago our agency decided to completely change our service. We tore up our 12 month contracts and moved to a short term, focused, productized service. No more custom work. No more monthly deliverables. No more client meetings.

Just the SEO work they needed, nothing more.

We went from scrambling to collect $25k/mo to consistently hitting $150k+ months. We're on pace to do over $2.5M in revenue this year.

How have we been able to make more, while doing less?

Simple - we focused on solving the client's problem and stripped away the rest of the BS.

Not only is our revenue higher, but our client's rankings are through the roof.

We call this new process the SEO Sprint Methodology, and I'd love to you behind the scenes and show you how it works.

No, I'm not going to ask you to opt in to a webinar. I posted it FREE on our YouTube Channel.

While you're up there, I will ask you to Subscribe to our Channel. I'm posting a ton of helpful content for agencies up there, I promise you're going to love it.Drop me some comments / questions on the video, I'll be answering them all today!

When NFTs first popped onto my radar in late 2019, my initial reaction was...

I didn't "get" them, so I didn't think much about them.

In early 2021,  we partnered with a client to create a strategy to launch an NFT project.

The client project forced me to dive deep into the world of NFTs are understand them.

I came to the realization that NFTs are something we all have to pay attention to.

Especially as marketers and business owners - NFTs have already impacting our industry.

NFTs can be a little scary because of how unnatural they feel...Both the technology and why people are paying so much money for a JPEG.

The truth is once you can wrap your head around NFTs, they're not overly complicated. In fact, they're incredibly simple.

To make things easier for you, we put together a video walking you through why NFTs are so important right now, and 6 use cases of NFTs being used in marketing right now.

I promise, if you listen to this episode you'll not only feel better about NFTs, you're going to be excited about them.
