How do I speak to Rand ?

[onlinemediadirect]

Ok that's good to know he does come across as a down to earth guy. I just ordered the batch of videos from Moz Con 2011 and I am going through them all.

He has also inspired me to grow a beard - see image

Excellent thanks for the reply that's excellent

I am just going through all of the Moz Con 2011 videos. I was saying earlier in the thread take a look at my Google plus image I have even started growing a "Rand Fishkin" style beard ...

I will email over a few questions shortly thanks you have made my day.

I was also going to ask would you be fine with me doing a blog post on our blog along the lines of - Why Rand Fishkin is my SEO hero

Thanks

I don't know if I'd particularly recommend my beard style - I do it because I have no jawline

Certainly cool with the blog post, though I might have to do a follow-up on some real SEO heroes and why I'm not sure I belong in that group; have made plenty of mistakes, failed to scale a consulting business in SEO, had years of debt, etc.

[onlinemediadirect]

thats good to know scaling my company and recruitment is also something I am finding difficult.

Ask him the same question on all his social media platforms.  He will appreciate the ability to gain SEO friendly content with unique answers across all platforms.

Shhhh...be vewy, vewy quwiet...someone is hunting for a Rand

[FrontlineMobility]

Next thing you know, SEOMoz will take off like Minecraft since Rand responds to all his fans.

[randfish]

I don't mind that one bit!

Hi Garry,

I can vouch for the fact that Rand even responds to people who email him weird & crazy questions & requests...and when I say responds, I don't mean "thanks very much for your input & have a nice day".

From my own experience I can say that where warranted, it has been more like "Holy response from the whole Company Batman!" 8D

Modest as he is about his own accomplishments, there are a lot of CEO's who would do well to take a few lessons from Rand on dealing with clients.

This is what I like about seomoz, I recently joined and I see that Rand takes time to talk to a lot of people and post a lot of comments, most of CEO of big companies don't do that! You only see pictures of them but not even a word. Seomoz Rules!!!!

[randfish]

Well, to be fair, we're not exactly a "big" company (yet)

But you look like a big company! that's all that matters lol

Big where it counts
