Douglas has created a business around SEO, Web Design, Marketing and Facebook Advertising Worldwide. Your business’s success needs an upgrade as much as a car needs wheels to get far. 52% of small businesses don’t have a Website. 5.9+ Billion Google searches a day. 68% of searchers click on the top 5. #1 SEO San Diego.

Final Words:

Douglas looks at the reason behind everything that he’s doing. His days could be 4 hour days or 14 hour days. Know Your Why!

Know why you do what you do. It’s completely psychotic to get up at 4 am, every day unless you’ve got a clear why… His biggest WHY is to his family.
