Your Team is Good. Sometimes You Need a Specialist.
Your marketing and dev teams are capable. But when you're scaling internationally, rethinking your organic strategy, or dealing with technical complexity at enterprise scale, you need someone who's solved these specific problems before. Not a consultant who takes over. A strategic advisor who works with your team, provides depth where you need it, and ensures you don't make expensive mistakes.
When You Need This
You're in a situation where:
- You're scaling internationally and need to get the SEO strategy right from the start
- Your organic growth has plateaued and you need a fresh perspective
- You have SEO challenges at enterprise scale but don't need a full-time hire
- Your team makes decisions that impact SEO, and they need expert guidance
- You're dealing with complex technical and strategic challenges (multi-market, large-scale content, platform decisions)
- You need someone who can speak to both your dev team and executives
What you're looking for:
- Strategic SEO guidance without hiring a full-time specialist
- Someone who can review decisions before they ship
- Expertise when you need it, not constant hand-holding
- A partner who understands enterprise constraints and stakeholder management
- Direct access to someone who's actually solved these problems at scale
The value: Avoid expensive SEO mistakes. Ship confidently knowing decisions are sound. Access expertise without full-time hiring costs.

Common Questions
How is this different from hiring a full-time SEO?
You get specialist-level expertise without full-time costs, recruitment, or management overhead. More flexible. Scale up or down as needed. You're getting someone who's solved these problems across multiple enterprise companies, not just one.
Do you do the actual work?
No. This is strategic advisory. Your team implements. I provide guidance, review work, ensure decisions are sound. Think of it as having a specialist on call when you need depth.
How much time commitment is this?
Typically 10-20 hours per month depending on engagement level. Regular strategy calls, async communication, reviews as needed. Flexible based on your needs. Some months more, some less.
Can we start with a shorter engagement to test it out?
Minimum 6 months. Strategic advisory takes time to deliver value. If you're unsure, start with an audit or specific project first, then move to ongoing advisory if it makes sense.
