Ehsan's Growth Commentary

After working with 60+ FinTech companies, the pattern is clear: SEO & Organic Search at the Series B stage requires systematic processes. The teams that win start smaller than they think they should and iterate 3x faster than their competitors.

With 30-80 people and $1.5-5M budget, focus SEO & Organic Search efforts on the single highest-ROI activity. Do not spread thin across multiple sub-channels. Validate one approach before adding another.
