Meet Rachel, your Small Business SEO Coach
Hi! I’m Rachel.
Your small business SEO coach.
I consider myself a word nerd. That’s a nerd who loves words, writing, and thinking about writing but isn’t technical.
I’ve been in marketing for nearly 20 years, and I’ve got the credentials & experience you’d expect. It started with a BA in broadcast journalism and a dream (and a realistic father, but we won’t go there yet).
Meet Rachel, your Small Business SEO Coach
Hi! I’m Rachel.
Your small business SEO coach.
I consider myself a word nerd. That’s a nerd who loves words, writing, and thinking about writing but isn’t technical.
I’ve been in marketing for nearly 20 years, and I’ve got the credentials & experience you’d expect. It started with a BA in broadcast journalism and a dream (and a realistic father, but we won’t go there yet).
How can a small business SEO coach help you?
I can help you create the best small business SEO & content strategy for your website so you make sure you’ve got what your customers want to read, and it’s easy for Google, or AI search engines to find and share, but you don’t want to ask me to build the actual website. That would be a disaster. 🤣 Full disclaimer: I didn’t build this site you’re reading. I did determine what content you’re reading, and optimize everything for Google and the answer engines, but someone else did all of the programming. You’re welcome.
I was going to be a reporter, heck, I was going to host the Today Show. Dream big, girl. Right? But then I graduated, and reality set in when the best job offer I got was $8 an hour in Nebraska. I turned it down and decided to stay in AZ, where my family was. I was offered almost double that for an entry-level marketing role soon after.
How my SEO and marketing experience can help your small business grow
After about 10 years in the industry, I returned for an MBA focusing on Marketing, and here we are. Dang, it. My dad was right. When I was studying journalism, he required me to take marketing & public relations courses because “you’ll never support yourself as a reporter” and “you, my dear, are a born marketer.”
Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to work for many different organizations and in multiple roles. My favorite is working with smart but non-techy people who want to learn how to grow their business. But the agency life wasn’t the best fit after I had my family. I wanted to trade my frequent flyer status, hotel points, and first-class upgrades for the chance to be more present in my son’s life. I’ve been working for myself since 2017, when I founded Etched Marketing Academy.
