But in reality even if you rank well and you run a really poor company, that’s not gonna help you in any way.

And then when you’re ready look at SEO to compliment what you have so that you can then fill that lead funnel of your ideal customers that you’ve distinguished over the years. -With SEO, it is a long term strategy.
