I’ll wrap here by saying that @Tom Critchlow’s work is brilliant.

Read all of his blog posts.

Then buy all of his courses.

I don’t say this lightly and I think our entire industry would be better if more people did this ❤️

A few personal favorites (some also mentioned above):

💯 -

I've been following Tom's work very closely for the last 3 years or so. Only anyone on my team is confident in their skills as an SEO, I always recommend taking Tom's course.

It helped me a LOT and I can confidently recommend how good it is.

Just look at the experience and thought process that's behind all the content he shared today as links.

What I appreciate is that it has nothing to do with getting “good” at SEO. It’s the honest career/consulting tips that people actually need to know.

I think one of the best tips I ever got from Tom was to make the headline the headline (on a slide).

If all the exec reads is the headline, they get what they need from it.

That day I threw out my slides with tables, multiple seo tool screenshots and all the other cruft I used to jam in there, thinking it helped me make my point.

1 headline
1 image
1 context

That’s it. Less is more.

Yes! Even though I don't create a lot of slides, I use that in all the landing page copy that I write till date.

Helped with sales, client happiness( i.e. more retention, more referrals), and team happiness.
