The systems I install for clients are the ones that run my own agency.

I'm an SEO strategist, WordPress developer, AI systems builder and business consultant, and the founder of The Search Sherpa. I work where search, entities, local markets, operations and conversion meet.

This site is where I develop and explain the methodology. The Search Sherpa is where it gets applied for clients.
