I’ve Been In Your Shoes

Hey, I’m Nathan Gotch, founder of Gotch SEO. I’m the guy that multi-million dollar companies come to when they want real results from search engine optimization.
Believe it or not, companies that claim to do SEO themselves come to me when they’re struggling to get consistent results for their clients.
Why am I telling you this?
Because it didn’t used to be this way…

Not Too Long Ago…
I was a clueless, information-overloaded, and dirt poor SEO wannabe. All I had was an embarrassing baseball blog and a dream. After struggling for months trying to get traffic to this pathetic blog, I discovered SEO. Like many other aspiring SEOs, I immersed myself in search engine optimization and learned everything I possibly could.
This left me more confused than I was before.
I would read strategies from one blog and then read another blog that said something entirely different. I would read forums where “SEOs” debated on “what works” and “what doesn’t work”.
I was more puzzled than ever and had no clue what actually works in SEO.
That is… until I had my big discovery.
I Realized I Had To Change My Mindset
What I did was simple:
1. I stopped reading SEO blogs and forums
2. I started doing my own testing and figured out what actually works
That was the turning point for me when I started having success with SEO.
Remember that pathetic baseball blog I mentioned earlier?
It went from being an embarrassment to becoming one of the highest trafficked baseball pitching blogs online.
That was achieved through testing and taking massive action.
But This Was Only the Beginning
After I had my first taste of SEO success, I was absolutely hooked.
I started creating niche site after niche site to continue testing. Oddly enough, I didn’t even care about making money at the time. I just wanted to become the best SEO I could possibly be.
After about a year, I was able to confidently say that I could improve the rankings of websites in Google and drive traffic to them.
The part I didn’t tell you was that I was improving my SEO skills while I was working a full time job I absolutely HATED.

They Laughed At Me…
…when I told them I wanted to start my own SEO agency.
I’ll never forget that day.
At the time, I was working as a Loss Prevention Manager at a store called Hermes in Beverly Hills.
Here’s how my normal day went:
Woke up at 4:30 AM.
Left my house at 5 AM to get to Beverly Hills by 6 AM.
Every single morning, I would go into Starbucks and work on my SEO until 10 AM.
At 10 AM, I began work at my day job that I despised.
Around 2 PM, I would go on what some people might call a lunch break. It was never a lunch break for me because I took my laptop back to the same Starbucks and got another hour of work in.
After my one hour lunch, I walked back to my day job and was there until 6:30 PM.
As crazy as it seems, I would then get a quick dinner and go BACK to Starbucks for another night SEO session from 7 PM – 9 PM. I stayed in Beverly Hills until 9 PM to avoid the horrible traffic.
I would get home around 10 or 10:30 PM and I would wake up the next day and do it all over again.
I did this for a year STRAIGHT.

I Was “Just Dreaming”…
When you take action and have big dreams, there are always going to be people who want to tear you down…
When I said “they laughed at me”, I was referring to the employees I worked with at my day job.
They asked me: “why do I always see you working in Starbucks?” and “what you doing on your laptop all the time”?
I told them this:
“I am going to create my own SEO agency and offer my services to businesses that need my help”.
Immediately following that statement, one of the employees I worked with said something that I’ll never forget:
“I remember when I was a 20-year old and had big dreams” (sarcastically)
What she didn’t realize was that her sarcastic comment fueled my fire.

That’s When I Packed Up
About a month later, I found myself packing my things into my car, getting into my car, and driving from California to St. Louis.
I had $0 to my name.
$21,000 of student loans.
A $17,000 car loan.
No clients.
And no job on the horizon.
But I did have one thing…
My SEO knowledge.
I truly believed I could help businesses with the skills I acquired.
Within one month of being in St. Louis, I got three clients and my agency become a reality.

From $0 to Over Six Figures (In Less Than a Year)
My SEO agency went from making nothing to generating $201,425.88 of revenue in 2014. The growth of my company allowed me to hire two employees. My agency is on pace to crush 2014’s numbers. I’m not telling you this to brag. I’m telling you this because I want you to see that I’m no different than you are. I want you to see that knowledge really is power.

What Businesses Are Saying About My SEO Strategies:

“You have changed the way I look at SEO. Everything that I’ve learned from you I tested them out with my team, and they’ve been working beautifully.” – Alice from Golden Hippo Media

“Your blog and your ebook on SEO are so awesome! Best one i’ve ever read” – Daria

“Like many business owners, I was skeptical of hiring someone to do SEO and had been burned by “gurus” in the past. But let me tell you… working directly with Nathan and Gotch SEO not only exceeded my expectations, but it ACTUALLY got my clients serious results in some very competitive niches.” – Tom, AptoHQ

“Nathan. You are the best! You took my law firm website out of the Stone Ages and now it is doing great!” – John, Medler Law Firm, LLC

“Nathan delivered more than he promised! What outstanding results we achieved by teaming with Nathan and GotchSEO. I absolutely would recommend him for any size company looking for top-line results.” – Tom, Rafco Properties, LLC

SEO Knowledge = Your Biggest Asset
As you saw in my story, my SEO knowledge was the single biggest reason why I was able to leave the job I hated and finally live the life that other people thought was a “dream”.
The truth is:
If your SEO knowledge isn’t improving, then you are actually putting yourself at risk…

You Will Watch Your Money Evaporate
Since starting my SEO agency, I have spent over $100,000 testing strategies.
It makes me sick to my stomach knowing I’ve spent that much.
It would kill me to see you do the same.
That brings me to an important question:
Would you be willing to invest in something that saved you hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars?
Imagine stepping into a time capsule and coming out with the SEO knowledge that is used to grow multi-milion dollar companies.
Wouldn’t that be nice?
Before I explain what that solution is, I need to explain a few more reasons why you can’t afford to fail at SEO.

Your Boss Will Fire You
Are you already working as an in-house SEO?
That’s great!
But there is one ugly truth:
Simply getting hired does not guarantee your job security.
There is only one thing that guarantees your job security:
Your ability to drive results from SEO.
I’ve personally watched companies fire their in-house SEO and replace him or her with an agency like mine.
If you can’t consistently drive results, then your job is at risk.

Your Clients Will Fire You
Are you someone who already has clients paying you to do SEO?
That’s amazing, but I hate to be the bearer of bad news..
Your client retention is based on one thing:
The results.
If a company hires your agency and they aren’t seeing any improvements within six months, there is a very good chance they’ll fire you.
Did you know that it costs 4 to 5 times MORE to acquire a new customer than it is to keep one?
Retention is critical to the health of your business.
And the only way to have high retention is to have a system for driving SEO results on a consistent basis.
