7 Lessons Learned Running and SEO Agency

Though this isn’t directly related to PPC, I find the principles and lessons learned through this article are priceless and can be applied to a PPC Agency.  Neil Patel the author of the article has founded several companies and agencies that have made millions every year in revenue.  Starting from the age of 17 he founded a company that was bringing in between 10K – 20K a month.  He goes over challenges and difficulties that he had and tells us how to overcome them by not making the same mistakes he did.

One key take away that I learned from this post is it’s much easier to keep a client then to get a new one.  This past week I considered dumping a client for a new client, after reading this post I decided to keep them.  I called them up, and laid it all on the table.  The call went great and they ended up raising their budget.  When you have nothing to lose and you don’t want a client because they are taking to much time or being a pain, let them know.  People typically don’t think they are being a pain unless you let them know.  If you lose them because of this at least you know you tried.
