For 10+ years I ran a digital marketing agency that specialized in SEO. Then came the idea for MySiteAuditor. It took off way faster than I expected and before long, it was all I could think about. A SaaS with a fast growing MRR, little to no overheard, and zero customer acquisition costs looked so appealing compared to a team of employees, office politics, clients, and endless sales meetings.

What I’m about to tell you is a true story. Years ago, a potential SEO client flew from Washington DC to Chicago so I could pitch him and his team our SEO services. Think about that for a minute. They flew all that way and spent all that money just to see my team. The sale was practically closed before they showed up, right?

He was sitting in his chair, mouth wide open, and his head was leaned all the way back as if it was partially detached from his body.
Many of you who know me know that I ran a pretty popular digital marketing agency in Chicago before it was successfully acquired by a much bigger agency in 2014. One of the things that really made my agency so attractive for acquisition was our extremely high SEO client retention rate, that led to a super high MRR.
