The biggest challenge for SEO professionals is not knowing what to do, it’s knowing how to get it done

Recognize any of these?

• Difficulty getting buy-in and budget from executives
• Challenges demonstrating the value of SEO
• Lacking confidence presenting SEO to the C-suite
• Not getting the resources you need to get things done

The #1 challenge for SEO professionals is not technical know-how, but knowing how to get buy-in and budget. Industry surveys consistently rate it as the biggest challenge:

“The top 5 challenges are all SEO resource and execution challenges”

“The average SEO at a big company has been waiting over six months for their highest priority technical change and doesn’t anticipate seeing it deployed for at least another six months”

“43% of people cite lack of buy-in or resources as the biggest risk to SEO success.”

SEO fundamentally requires other teams to invest their resources in our projects, whether it’s the product, marketing or editorial team.

This course isn’t about technical audits or keyword research. This course focuses on the business, leadership and consulting skills that you need to be more effective in your job and operate at more senior levels of business.

“If you want to learn exactly how to present ideas and get executive buy-in for SEO projects, SEO MBA is easily the most important and unique course you can invest your time in. Unlike any other SEO training or course, SEO MBA teaches you how to build a presentation and strategy to get executive buy-in upfront.Tom’s one simple tip on how to write a slide headline (and exactly what not to do) has radically transformed our client presentation and pitch decks. The course ended last week and it has already helped our entire agency communicate better and close 2 high quality six-figure deals. “	“8 years into my career as a professional SEO, Tom’s SEO MBA has helped me discover new ways to pitch projects, present forecasts and slide decks, drive change in large organizations and think more strategically.There are a lot of SEO courses that will tell you how to write a title tag or conduct keyword research. This is not one of them. Tom operates on another level, and you should consider yourself lucky if you ever get the chance to pick his brain about any SEO- and strategy related topic. “	“The course was enlightening and I have already found actionable ways to improve my executive communication skills, optimize reporting, and “think bigger” with SEO strategy.I now have the knowledge and tools to format more compelling requests for resources and support.My team and direct manager have noted the positive change (and my boost in confidence) over the past few weeks, and I will continue to apply these learnings to take my performance to new heights. “

Hi, I’m Tom Critchlow and I’ve worn many hats in my career

I’ve spent the last 15 years working in agencies, in-house and now as an independent consultant for companies you’ve heard of like The New York Times, Google, Dotdash, Etsy and Gartner.

In my consulting work, I’ve helped companies structure large scale SEO investments and led hiring for senior SEO roles. What I’ve seen is that there’s a big skills gap in the market for technically competent SEOs to gain crucial business skills in order to operate at the most senior levels of business.

This course is a distillation of my entire career and brings to bear all of the skills and advice I wish I’d had in my career along the way.

“Tom brings a unique mix of SEO, business strategy and executive presence. Working together we have successfully secured investment to build modern SEO programs, driven valuable revenue growth and transformed SEO into a strategic business lever with executive leadership at various enterprises.”	“Tom is a ‘CEO Whisperer’. He is truly a world-class listener and mentor who knows how to knock down walls inside companies to get strategic projects delivered.”
Robert Bellovin VP Product, Angi	Jeremy Cabral Co-founder & COO, Finder

“The SEO MBA course is very good. I got more than my money’s worth (a lot more) from yesterday’s session on opportunity modeling, It’s already changing how I work with customers. Money well spent.”
