Speaker Interview
This snippet is taken from Eric Enge’s interview with UnGagged prior to his session at UnGagged Las Vegas 2016:

UnGagged: Tell us a bit about your background and how you got started in SEO.

Eric Enge: Well, I graduated in 1982, so I’ve been working for a few years. Most of my early career was very technical (hardware design, software engineering, managing software dev teams, …) but eventually I drifted into business and marketing, as I was one of those engineering types that could explain things to people.

I’ve been in SEO since 2002. At the time, I was doing business development consulting for people, and it was going quite well. But, a friend of mine took over as the CEO of a DVD De-tailer, and he asked me help him out with some biz dev.

After exploring that for a few weeks, I went to him and suggested that we try to get traffic from search engines. Like a good CEO, he said to me “great idea, you go do that!” So I did. One year later, we were doing about $3M per year in sales from SEO.

So seeing that, I realized how big SEO really was, and decided to shift my career focus in that direction!
