- I direct them to my library of screencasts, podcasts, articles etc. in the Netconcepts Learning Center. There’s a ton of self-help information there – literally dozens of hours of webinar recordings and podcast interviews and hundreds of articles.
- I refer them on to individual SEO consultants I respect and trust. Who do I refer them to, you ask? One or a combination of the following: David Patterson (Elbrus Consulting), Steve Krull (The Krull Group), Matt Joswick (Momentum), Dave Winget (WingnutSEO). Dave Winget quite recently started his own design and search marketing company, 10kthings.com. If you’re a SEO consultant who likes working with smaller accounts (e.g. $1k to $5k per month) and we know each other personally and you’re not in the aforementioned list, please ping me so I can add you to the list. 🙂 If you’re looking for leads the $10k/month and up ballpark, then I’m sorry but I’m keeping those for Netconcepts! 🙂
I get numerous calls and emails from really nice folks wanting help with SEO but who don’t have the budget to afford Netconcepts. I wish we could help all of them, but we are so full-on with client engagements we just can’t. So I do what I think will help them the most:
SIGN UP FOR EXCLUSIVE WEEKLY CONTENT 
Us too.
We get many requests for referrals for smaller SEO engagements and often aren’t sure where to send them. ((Our focus is PPC and webtesting, both on medium-to-large scale, ie IR100, with a focus on online retail.)
If you’re
(1) credible,
(2) reputable,
(3) high-integrity, AND
(4) come endorsed by Stephan or other folks we already know and trust,
do drop us an email (info@rimmkaufman.com) so we see if there’s a fit for sending SEO work your way.
(Though I’d suspect the folks matching 1,2,3, and 4 above already have more work than they can handle!)
