What can I bring to your company?
I find myself in a privileged position through hosting my SEO meetups, where I have access to a wealth of data alongside my fellow members.

My team and I take it upon ourselves to meticulously gather and arrange this data, ensuring that every participant can reap the benefits from a broad pool of knowledge.

Who is Ross Kernez?
First and foremost I am curious. I am curious to understand what makes a search engine place one website above another.
What makes these vastly complex and nebulus algorithms tick? Some of my friends & colleagues will tell you I have an unbalanced curiosity/obsession.
I like to quote an unknown source in response: “Don’t judge people for the choices they make when you don’t know the options they had to choose from.”
When others ‘stamp out at’ 5pm and head to the bar. I head home to dig deeper.
I have been experimenting and learning with SEO for the past 15 years. In that time I have worked with numerous large businesses pushing them up the SERP’s and driving more traffic, conversions and most importantly gathering data to empower future improvements.
Mentor at ‘Starta Venture Capital’
Mentoring startups has put me in front of some incredible talent, it has allowed me to test my skills to the limit across a diverse marketplace. Founders are highly motivated and bright individuals mentoring them has been both an honor and an ongoing challenge. It perfectly compliments my other activities as it constantly tests and sharpened my skills set. Not to mention building my network.

We had the pleasure of working with Ross as our CMO, and it’s hard to overstate the impact he made on our company. From the outset, Ross brought a level of strategic thinking and marketing expertise that we desperately needed. He didn’t just dive into tactics; he took the time to understand our business, our market, and our long-term goals. This holistic approach allowed him to craft a marketing strategy that was perfectly aligned with our vision.
Vanessa A.
Hiring Ross as our CMO was one of the best decisions we’ve made. We were at a point where our marketing efforts were scattered, and we lacked a clear strategy. Ross came in and quickly got us on track. He conducted a thorough analysis of our current efforts and identified key areas for improvement. What I appreciated most was his ability to translate complex marketing strategies into actionable plans that our team could execute efficiently.
Mody S.
Working with Ross as our CMO has been an outstanding experience. From day one, Ross brought a level of professionalism and expertise that immediately put us at ease.

Topics that I can cover:
Just SEO?
Absolutely not, although i started in SEO, when I am a full stack marketer i realized that a good SEO strategy without a holistic understanding of marketing. Is like a funnel with holes in it. No matter how much traffic you drive through the funnel you will be leaking leads and wasting your resources.
I have garnered a solid understanding of digital marketing and how to juggle the many disciplines and allow them to fit and work together. I also have managed teams of freelancers and employees in the double digits. I love to help people manage their teams more efficiently.
