7,7 Mio+ impressions from Google in one year and still generating 5,000 to 7,000 highly relevant visits every month, although AI is "killing clicks". That's the last project I designed around a strategic SEO approach - a hub site in the renewable energy sector, where the brand authority we established keeps paying off for my client today. On top of that? 330,000+ mentions in ChatGPT alone in just the last 90 days. While the system is still running and growing each month, I'm looking for new brands that want to take SEO and GEO seriously to build a sustainable lead channel rather than just applying quick fixes to face the same problems 3 months down the line. If your website isn't generating consistent, qualified organic traffic yet 👉🏼 we should talk. ___ My intro got you curious? Pleasure to meet you - I'm Richard, SEO & GEO strategist for brands that know sustainable marketing isn't built in a day, even with AI. With a track record of 160+ completed projects over 5 years, I've learned what really moves the needle - and my work has been recognized through expert contributions in OMR, t3n, and OMT, where my SEO approach was awarded "Best SEO Advice." And you know what? It's not more content, it's not reducing your meta title to 600px, and it's not implementing a llms.txt to grow your citations. It's understanding your customers and building a strategic approach around their needs, their goals and their pain points. Doesn't matter if you're operating in e-commerce, as a local player, or as a B2B service company. Building organic growth and converting that into actual sales comes down to understanding your market, building authority and combining it with technical SEO, trustworthy content and smart modern workflows to get ahead and become the most relevant player in your niche. Before a single word is written or a single fix is shipped, I start with a thorough analysis - your niche authority and competitive positioning, your site's technical health, keyword landscapes and clustering, content gaps, and how visible you already are in AI-generated answers across Google, ChatGPT, and Perplexity. No guesswork, no generic playbooks. What you'll get is a strategy tailored exactly to your site and situation to identify your biggest levers. Because writing blog posts and booking backlinks was never the goal. Building a scalable, compounding system that turns organic search into your most reliable growth channel - that is. ___ Ready to build something that lasts? The best first step: book a call and we'll talk through where you are, what you need, and what a realistic path forward looks like. Cheers, Richard ___ Need more input? Keep reading. Who I work with I work best with B2B companies and e-commerce brands that are serious about sustainable organic growth - businesses that understand SEO is a strategic investment, not a quick fix. Whether you're building from zero or ready to break through a plateau, I'll design the approach that fits your exact situation. Industries I've worked across: ▸ E-Commerce (Shopify & others) ▸ B2B Service Companies & SaaS ▸ Technology & Software ▸ Marketing & Sales ▸ Renewable Energy & Sustainability ▸ Healthcare & Medical ▸ Industry & Manufacturing ▸ Local Services What the system looks like My approach is holistic by design, because rankings are never just one thing and the right mix depends entirely on where you are. - Initial Audit & Analysis - technical SEO health, keyword landscape, competitive gaps, GEO visibility, - SEO & GEO Strategy - a clear, prioritized roadmap built around your market, your audience, and where search is heading - Content SEO - keyword-rich, naturally written content structured for traditional rankings and AI citations - Technical SEO - clean architecture, crawlability, site speed, schema markup, E-E-A-T signals - UX & User Guidance - intuitive page structures and information hierarchies that reduce bounce rates, increase dwell time, and send the engagement signals Google actually rewards - Backlink Building & Entity Optimization - authority signals that compound over time - AI-Ready Structures - content and markup optimized for Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity, and the search landscape of tomorrow How I work I combine an established SEO tool stack with modern AI workflows: The Classics: Ahrefs - SEMrush - SISTRIX - Screaming Frog - Google Search Console AI-augmented: Claude Code - DataForSEO - n8n Workflows AI makes my processes faster and more precise. The strategy, the judgment, and the evaluation of results are still made by a human (thats me). Ready to start? Book your call now.

Yeah, I solve problems like the one that brought you here. SaaS and service businesses across the US and Europe bring me in when operations, product execution, or launch preparation have outgrown the structure they have. I work across: 1) building operating systems for teams that have grown past informal coordination; 2) scoping and launching MVPs with the financial and GTM logic behind them; 3) designing manual and AI assisted workflows that reduce manual load in daily operations. Send it over. I’ll make it easier to act on. 🔹 WHEN CLIENTS BRING ME IN ⚙️ [COO-Level Execution Systems] For you if: • Your team has the tools, but execution still depends on memory. • Ownership, handoffs, approvals, follow-ups, or team response times are hard to control. • You need a clearer operating rhythm across projects, clients, vendors, and internal delivery. What I do: Build the operating layer around ownership, workflows, decision points, metrics, SOPs, and the high-level management views leadership needs. I use PMI project control and Lean process mapping as the structural backbone. Track record: Operational system for US property management (900+ units, 50+ person team), maintenance workflow logic, Google Workspace restructuring, Notion operating system for a consulting firm, a 15-person agency workspace overhaul, BPMN workflow mapping, ClickUp setups, and Asana delivery control for CGI campaigns for Sony and Hyundai. 🤖 [AI Operating Playbooks] For you if: • Your team is starting to use Gemini, ChatGPT, or Claude inside daily operations, but the usage is chaotic. • People use AI unevenly, copy outputs too quickly without verification, or avoid the tools completely. • You need AI to systematically support team execution, internal documentation, and knowledge access. What I do: Turn AI into a functional operating layer, crafting custom use cases, structured prompt engineering, Gems, verified source material bases, review protocols, and playbooks tied directly to your workflows. Track record: Gemini operating logic for a US property management company, AI-assisted maintenance communication systems, internal AI use case mapping, process documentation automation, LLM workflow design, AI research frameworks, and operating playbooks for teams built on Google Workspace, Notion, and major CRMs. 🚀 [Product, GTM & Unit Economics] For you if: • Your MVP scope, GTM path, pricing model, or initial customer segment is unclear. • You need a strict financial model before committing capital to a specific revenue path. • Your product roadmap lacks sharp, data-driven business logic. • Market dynamics, cost structures, conversion, retention, or support load are heavily affecting your decisions. What I do: I connect product decisions directly to economics: MVP scope definition, roadmap logic, GTM architecture, pricing models, unit economics, scenario tools, and the immediate execution plan the team can act on. Track record: B2B SaaS pricing models, 36-month SaaS financial forecasting, revenue scenario planning tools, hospitality SaaS MVP-to-GTM decision packs, hotel guest app market sizing, SaaS pricing and competitive intelligence memos, AI healthcare market analysis, startup burn rate dashboards, and multi-channel revenue mapping for creative and service enterprises. ⭐ CLIENT FEEDBACK Upwork feedback on my completed jobs points to clear communication, reliability, detail, quality, accountability, and solution oriented work. That feedback comes from Excel pricing work, startup financial modeling, AI workflow research, Notion systems, and project management tool setup. 📌 HOW I WORK 1. Current material You send the model, market notes, workspace, spreadsheet, project board, documents, or business question you already have. 2. First move I find the first move from what you send. 3. Working structure I bring the model, market analysis, workspace, tracker, or operating system into a form the founder can use with the team. 4. Handover You get the structure, logic, notes, and walkthroughs needed to keep using it after the project. 👉 NEXT STEP Send over what you have now. I’ll show you the first move.
