Discover how a focused cold-calling campaign landed him seventeen clients in his first month. In this episode, youl will also learn the reason he prioritizes culture fit over impressive resumes in his hiring process, why he believes relying on just one lead source is playing a dangerous game, and why he believes that open communication is the key to building trust with clients. Marc Brookland, the owner of SEO Locale, a full-service digital marketing agency specializing in search engine optimization. He shares his journey into the world of SEO and how much things have changed in that field, from focusing on repeating a keyword as much as possible or having more backlinks than the next guy to a complex and sophisticated process to improve your website traffic. He also discusses the challenges he's faced with hiring and ho open communication has shaped a trusting relationship with clients. In this episode, we'll discuss: Building his agency on cold calling success. Hiring for culture fit over skill set.

Taking a Leap of Faith to Become an Entrepreneur When Marc landed his first SEO job, he discovered his true calling and began dreaming of running his own agency. It was there he met his future business partner, and together they started mapping out their entrepreneurial ambitions. Though passionate about SEO, Marc soon felt constrained by the role's narrow focus and yearned to expand his digital marketing expertise. He left that agency to go work in-house, where he finally got to challenge himself being a team of one in charge of social media, website management, and SEO. This was the test that convinced him that he could start his own business. He began taking on agency clients on the side, though still hesitant to fully embrace entrepreneurship, and accepted another in-house position. Fate intervened when his employer's pivot led to staff layoffs, presenting Marc with a choice: stay on as an employee or transition to a contractor role. Recognizing this as his opportunity to finally commit to his agency dreams, Marc chose the entrepreneurial path – and never looked back. Agency Success Built on Cold Calls Although it started as a small operation, Marc spent the first month as an agency owner cold calling businesses and was able to bring seventeen clients with this strategy. This campaign was undoubtedly a huge success thanks to his unwavering determination to connect with potential clients. Where many shy away from direct outreach due to fear of rejection, Marc embraced the challenge. It was also thanks to a methodical approach to identifying potential clients. By utilizing data scraping tools, he was able to target businesses that were likely to benefit from his services. Interestingly, Marc's experience highlights a common misconception about cold calling which is cold calling is an outdated or ineffective strategy in today's digital age. In his opinion, agency owners can't be afraid of sales because there's no way around it if you're starting your business from scratch. Although it's not something he's revisited after the agency took off, cold calling provided him an opportunity for direct interaction, fostering relationships that can lead to long-term partnerships because the ability to engage authentically with potential clients can set a business apart from its competitors. Nowadays, SEO is his agency's number one lead generator, followed by referrals and word of mouth. The skills he honed in those early days—effective communication, resilience in the face of rejection, and the ability to identify and address client needs—remain integral to the agency's operations. Hiring for Culture Over Skillset Hiring is one of the biggest challenges at Marc's agency at this point of their growth. He and his partner are trying to focus on hiring the right people. For them, this means hiring people who fit into the agency's culture. They're much more interested in this than in hiring people with an impressive resume. At the end of the day, skills can be taught, but intrinsic values and work ethic are often more difficult to instill and Marc is much more interested in finding individuals with a genuine drive and a willingness to learn, which is the sort of information you'll probably won't get in a resume. Rather than partnering with recruiting firms, Marc has built a successful hiring pipeline through Indeed, LinkedIn, and his extensive professional network. The majority of applications come through Indeed, where Marc and his team have honed their ability to identify promising candidates. However, with a large volume of applications it can be better to set your standards very early in the application process by only reviewing applications that comply with parameters expressed in the job posting. This way, you'll greatly reduce your workload by eliminating the candidates who not even bother to read the full description. How Open Communication Leads to Stronger Client Relationships To Marc, communication is an active process that involves educating clients about the work being done on their behalf and being consequent with this has shaped his agency's growth is his relationships with clients. The most common complaint raised against agencies is that clients feel in the dark regarding the work being done. This could stem from a fear of sharing too much of their process and then lose clients as they set off to do that work themselves. However, Marc has found that the more agencies communicate and educate clients the more they'll trust you as they feel more involved in the process. This involvement can take many forms, such as regular updates, detailed reports, or even educational sessions that explain the strategies being employed. When clients understand the rationale behind the work, they are more likely to appreciate the efforts being made on their behalf. Furthermore, many clients may not have a background in marketing or digital strategy, leading to confusion about the value of certain actions. By taking the time to explain these concepts in an accessible manner, agencies can empower clients with knowledge, making them feel more invested in the partnership. Don't be afraid to give some “secret sauce” by explaining and demystifying your processes. In the end, everyone's process is pretty much the same. Your real secret sauce is your people and how they treat the client and that's what you should protect. Do You Want to Transform Your Agency from a Liability to an Asset?

Ask your smart speaker to play “Catholic News,” or listen every morning wherever you get podcasts. www.catholicnewsagency.com - Police have arrested and charged the man believed to have vandalized St. Anthony School in Washington, DC, last week. The property destruction led to national outcry and support for a Catholic school celebrating its 100th year this fall. Saint Anthony's principal of 12 years, Michael Thomasian, believes the incident was a hate crime targeted at the school's Catholic witness. The school serves grades Pre-K-8 in the Brookland neighborhood. The incident is being investigated as a potential hate crime, the Washington Metropolitan Police Department said, in which 32-year-old Demitrius Hansford of Northeast Washington vandalized the school's Saint Anthony of Padua statue, stole $1,400 in cash, and trampled areas on the property in two incidents, on August 10 and August 15. https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/252067/man-arrested-for-burglary-property-destruction-at-catholic-school-in-dc Bishop Joseph Brennan of Fresno joined the United Farm Workers last week for a portion of the union's march through California's Central Valley to support a union voting rights bill. The more than 300-mile march from Delano to Sacramento is in support of Assembly Bill 2183, the Agricultural Labor Relations Voting Choice Act. The bill would allow farmworkers to use mail-in ballots for union elections. The march passed through Fresno August 11. Bishop Brennan, along with his predecessor, Bishop Armando Ochoa, joined the march at Saint Anthony Mary Claret Church, and then spoke at a rally at Calwa Recreation & Park District, where Bishop Brennan also gave a blessing to the marchers. https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/252068/fresno-bishop-joins-march-for-farmworkers-union-voting-rights-bill Today, the Church celebrates Saint John Eudes, a French missionary and the founder of the Congregation of Our Lady of Charity, who was also the author of the liturgical worship of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary. In 1641 he founded the Congregation of Our Lady of Charity of the Refuge, to provide a refuge for prostitutes. In 1643 he founded the Society of Jesus and Mary for the education of priests and for missionary work. He wrote the first book ever on the devotion to the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary. https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/saint/st-john-eudes-568
