"It depends..."
Ah, the default of every SEO to walk the face of the planet, especially when someone asks the burning question:
“How long does SEO take to work?”
“It depends.”
God, it kills me to even write those words, because I know that it does depend, but it’s not as long as you think.
I’ll be straight with you — if you launched your brand yesterday, it’ll probably take 3-4 months for you generate revenue from SEO, maybe longer depending on the industry.
BUT if you’ve been operating your brand for a few years, the truth is that more revenue is less than 60 days away.
Don’t believe me? I get it, I’m just some guy who emails you a few times a week.
And since you don’t believe me, I have to prove it to you.
Fine, I love a challenge.
Exhibit A: I moved over 124 money page keywords into the #1 spot in the first 40 days of working with a new brand, which directly resulted in an increase of $12k+ in organic search revenue in the first 40 days.

Exhibit B: I’ve been working with this client for 33 days as of now, organic search revenue is already up 69%. Why so much? Because we moved some big money keywords from the #3 spot to the #1 spot, and their AOV is $600+.

Exhibit C: I increased a brand’s organic search revenue by 39% in the first 30 days. How? Two things: I optimized their top 10 collection pages & remapped their internal links.
Their previous SEO agency sucked, this one was a layup. I could’ve done this in my sleep.

These are brands that were already established — they’d existed for a few years before we started working together. The pure fact that they already had some rapport with Google made this possible — nonetheless, I added thousands of dollars in revenue in the first 30-40 days.
I earned my keep immediately — that’s why they pay me the big bucks.
On Friday, I’m going to show you how I speedrun new brands to page 1.
See you then.
