When you say exposure combined with paid seo tools & exposure quicker, you are almost certainly talking link building tools, rather than tools provided by seomoz which mainly give you access to data & site improvement recommendations, I will tell you this regardless of what a lot of users on seomoz may tell you there are only 2 link building tools i know of that work 100% & do will not affect a sites Google status when used correctly, I say correctly as if they are not used correctly then they also will most likely sandbox a site, these tools are expensive as they combine not only the main software but many other paid software tools combined which makes the main software even more expensive to use, but here lies the key to your question about exposure quicker, NO USING LINK BUILDING TOOLS AND PRODUCING LINKS FOR YOUR SITE QUICKLY WILL DAMAGE IT.
