“I think from an agency perspective, it’s always a positive to be able to have empathy for your clients and work through that.
Now at the same time, when you do run a digital agency, you have mouths to feed.
So it’s not as easy as signing contracts, doing the work, and getting checks coming in. You have a lot of more responsibilities than you do when you’re a consultant.
When you’re a consultant, you have yourself and your own family.
We have 30+ on staff. It’s a lot of dinners. It’s lot of kids. It’s a lot of trying to figure out how people live and how it affects them.
So luckily, going through this, we were able to bring on some new work as well, and some new clients as well.
Some of them were surprises and some of them were companies that actually did quite well through this pandemic and are still doing so. So that was really good to see.
I think we’re blessed from that perspective.”
Today marks the 200th episode of The Search Engine Journal Show and what better way to celebrate this milestone than having Loren Baker, the Founder of Search Engine Journal, as a guest.
