Does your company need an SEO company or an SEO consultant?
Business DevelopmentApril 16, 2020Written by jhon274 views
Many companies ask this question because they want an SEO or online marketing solution, but don't know where to start. How much can an SEO consultant handle and when should they use a large company? As an SEO consultant (I know it may seem biased), some small companies ask me this question, so I'd like to answer, "I can handle any campaign." The truth is, as a consultant, I act as a general contractor similar to a home building contractor. I am practical and handle all the important tasks for my clients. I have partners who help me where and when I need it to be able to expand or reduce, depending on the demands of the project and the amount of tasks I have. I also have a home office that makes my overhead for my business very low. That savings is passed on to clients because large SEO companies need to pay rent for their large, cozy offices, high salaries for their management, and that cost is passed on to the client for higher fees for services. I operate efficiently with technology doing many of my business tasks while focusing on my clients and making them successful. https://mediaonemarketing.com.sg/
Large companies often only have an SEO expert (some have none) and a group of low-paid SEO associates who have limited experience in online marketing and general business. They often work from templates and guidelines that the SEO company gives them. This business model for large companies is necessary, but it does not allow for much customization, competitive strategy, and fresh new ideas that can reap great rewards. Am I saying that the strategies of large SEO companies do not work? No, I am not saying that at all, I am saying that they are not as economically and operationally efficient as an SEO expert working with their own team because you may be assigned to a team with an SEO expert and may not you do it. What if you get the equipment without one, which is very likely? You are not receiving any value by putting the stewardess in the cabin to fly the plane instead of the pilot. Have you ever been a client of a big SEO company and called and asked about SEO and talked to three different people with three different answers?
