I don't just advise — I've built it.
For 15+ years I founded, operated, and scaled my own businesses: ecommerce brands, Amazon & MercadoLibre stores, a SaaS, and digital products — across Mexico, the US, and Canada. Peak revenue: $20M+ MXN/year. I've run paid media with my own money, optimized funnels that were bleeding cash, and made the pivot decisions that kept businesses alive.
That operator experience is what I bring to every engagement.
What I do:
I help ecommerce, DTC, and startup founders find the real growth lever — then build the system around it. Not a strategy deck. An actual diagnosis, a prioritized experiment roadmap, and execution that moves revenue.
Recent results:
→ TripPenguin (Travel Tech SaaS) — Built full growth infrastructure from zero. CPL 28% below industry benchmark. Identified 74% funnel drop-off — solutions in testing.
→ Sprout (Legal & Tax, US Hispanic market) — Repositioned entire paid media strategy. Qualified leads at $22 USD against $3,000 USD deals. 100x+ ROI potential on acquisition cost.
→ Gama Shoes (DTC Ecommerce) — Scaled email from under 10% to 30% of total revenue. $5.6M MXN peak annual revenue.
→ INDIMU (Multicategory Ecommerce) — Built $20M MXN/year operation across 7 marketplaces in 3 countries.

In a Nutshell: I build AI-powered systems that slash costs, save time, and scale businesses rapidly. Expert in converting complex workflows into streamlined automations. 👋
I built a complete recruitment automation system for one of Mexico's largest real estate agencies (with offices in Texas), which streamlined how they onboard new agents and saved the team 100+ hours every single week.
I automate processes like this—both administrative and sales-related—for companies of all sizes.

Are you tired of guessing what actually works in search today, or feeling like you're just another ticket number at a large agency? If you're looking for a seasoned partner to cut through the noise and build a search strategy that actually drives revenue, let's talk.
Hi, I’m Simon. I’ve been in the SEO trenches for over 15 years. I’m Scottish by birth, but I’ve called Guadalajara, Mexico, my home for the last 18 years.
My journey in search isn't just technical - it’s leadership-driven. I previously founded and ran a 17-person agency, managing complex campaigns for clients across the US and UK.
Today, I’ve traded the agency-owner hat for what I truly love - working directly with business owners and marketing teams to scale their visibility. I understand the real-world challenges you face - wearing multiple hats, managing scattered systems, and trying to grow while adapting to a rapidly changing digital landscape.
How I Help You Win
I don't just do SEO; I build digital systems that drive high-intent leads and revenue for your business. Whether you are a local service provider, a growing SaaS company, or a national eCommerce brand, I design bespoke strategies that connect search performance to real business results.
My expertise spans the full spectrum of search:
• Local SEO & The 90-Day Sprint: If local visibility is your lifeblood, I execute a high-impact, 90-day sprint focused on Google Business Profile mastery, hyper-local content, and review systems to get your phone ringing fast.
• Comprehensive SEO Strategy: For eCommerce, SaaS, and national brands, I build your authority through entity SEO, technical optimization, and high E-E-A-T content.
• Future-Proofing for AI: Search is evolving. I integrate Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) and Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) to ensure your brand is recommended by AI models like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews.
A Different Kind of Partnership
Partnering with me means more than hiring a freelancer. It means gaining a strategic growth partner who has been in the trenches and knows what it takes to scale. I take a "no-hand-holding" approach to communication; you’ll never wonder what I’m doing with your budget. I work directly with you, offering the quality and strategy of a top-tier agency without the layers or account managers.
Whether you need a fractional leader to guide your in-house team, a comprehensive audit, or a fast-paced 90-day local sprint to dominate your market, I'm here to help you navigate the complexities of modern search.
Ultimately, it’s just me. I don’t outsource your work to others, so I’m limited to the number of clients I can take on at any one time.
Send me a message today to schedule a strategy call. We'll discuss where you are and where you want to be and map out a clear, no-fluff plan to capture the revenue you deserve.
