I run shortlist, which is a productized service for SEO and linkbuilding. I have scaled it from nothing to over a million dollars in sales, without any investment whatsoever.
I've been a growth marketer for 10+ years and also worked with and hired many others. I have worked with companies in numerous stages such as small bootstrapped boutiques and large funded enterprises. I've worked with SaaS, Ecommerce, Blogs, etc.
I've recruited probably over 100 people across my organizations over the years including designers developers marketers and copywriters. I've used sites like upwork and also conducted one on one interviews and set up the company infrastructure such as how we communicate and work together as a team

If you have questions on how to build links, I've run dozens of campaigns and tested many different approaches such as guest posting, resource page link building, scholarship link building, infographics, etc.
NinjaOutreach was an outbound marketing tool. I've done hundreds of outreach campaigns to influencers, leads, etc and have spent a lot of time with tools in the outreach space and perfecting the process around outreach. I'm happy to share the tips and tricks I've learned in this space.
I bootstrapped NinjaOutreach to a 20 person company over the course of 4 years. I'm well versed in how to grow a business on a budget, and ways to save money and be more efficient with cash to increase your runway. All of my businesses have always been bootstrapped.

Super friendly and knowledgeable. David helped reaffirm some things we've been kicking around, and offered some actionable takeaways that we're going to try out.
Dave was immensely helpful in providing some clarity and perspective on the current problems that I have. It definitely helps when there's a mentor that knows and has seen some of the issues that seem to be special cases, but aren't! This was immensely helpful and recommend Dave for anyone looking for advice!
Dave was great! He pointed out that I needed to do some groundwork before focusing on the link building. This was very helpful for me, as it allowed me to give focused guidance to the freelancer I have hired. Thanks, Dave!
I'm making a strategic shift in my business, and have three paths that I've heard from the market. Dave helped me work through those approaches in an unbiased way, and immediately understood some of the challenges I'd encounter to determine my path forward. 15 minutes of pure gold - thanks, Dave!

I highly recommend Dave. We had a good session about B2B outbound marketing. He listened to all I had to say about my specific situation and then came up with great ideas and suggestions. Thanks!
David is a fountain of knowledge on the topic of link building. He offered substantive answers to all of my questions and demonstrated his deep expertise on the topic. We talked mainly about high-level link building strategy; measurement, outreach methods, link target selection, quality/quantity tradeoffs in both outreach and link acquisition. The guy's a true link building wizz—worth every cent of the $0.00! ;p
Dave was super friendly and easy to bounce ideas off of. We talked about link building where he laid out some best practices for outreach. He had some great advice on tools he uses to scale the process and chisel off some of the grunt-work. We also talked about applying some adjustments to our blog, leveraging our higher traffic articles to drive lead generation and visits to our product pages. All in all, it was a great call and I definitely recommend reaching out to Dave for help with link building and outreach.
Had a nice talk with Dave about B2B SaaS marketing priorities. Helped me review my approach.

Dave is a seasoned Saas Owner / Marketer and when I chatted with him he was very open with the information he shared. He felt like an open book. He talked out pros and cons on what we're trying. He was realistic about budget concerns on what we should try next. He also went out of his and made some introductions to others he thought could help us. He is really easy to talk with and understood the position we are in now and how to move forward. I highly recommend you taking the time and reaching out to him - I'm honestly blown away on the insight he provided. Thank you Dave!
