Key takeaways:
Start with a Clear Niche and Audience
Alex emphasizes the importance of choosing a specific niche when starting out. In his case, he focuses on small businesses and local entrepreneurs. This allows him to tailor his services and marketing efforts to a well-defined audience, making his work more effective and easier to scale.
Leverage Tools and Automation Early

These tools help streamline repetitive tasks, such as keyword research and analytics, enabling him to spend more time on strategy. For anyone starting a similar gig, investing in the right tools can accelerate growth and improve efficiency.
Build Relationships for Long-Term Success

By simplifying SEO concepts and empowering clients to manage some aspects themselves, he ensures satisfaction and earns valuable referrals. This relational approach has been key to his business sustainability.
