Brendan M

SEO Consultant, Content Marketing

Hey, I'm Brendan. I'm a full-time SEO consultant, fractional content director, and freelance writer.

I’ve held a lot of roles over my 13+ year career. SEO specialist, senior copywriter, senior content marketing manager, multimedia creator, journalist and, now, content marketing consultant.

I’ve worked with businesses of all sizes: from multinational, uber-billionaire tech companies like Shopify, Square, and TELUS to local small businesses on Main Street.

My singular goal is to use my experience and expertise in content marketing, SEO, and writing to help other companies (and individuals) get more from their businesses.

The Best Fit

I’m a man of two minds. I love working with big tech, but my heart will always be with local, small businesses. I couldn’t choose, so my content marketing clients are a blend of both.

My ideal clients, however, are those that are looking to grow awareness of their product or services through dedicated SEO or content strategies. I'm at by best when I can partner closely with my clients to craft, create, and scale content and SEO strategies that engage and educate new customer segments.

Brendan is the best of the best when it comes to SEO-driven content marketing.
Lauren Sudworth former Head of Global Content, Shopify
Brendan was one of our longest-running freelancers as a result of his advanced writing and SEO optimization skills. We initially engaged Brendan for regular posting on our blog and he quickly showed us that he could balance high-quality and well-researched writing with content designed for search. On top of that, Brendan is an absolute pleasure to work with and collaborates well with our internal team. If you're looking for someone to help boost your content in search (all while building an article base that actually reads well!), Brendan is your guy!
Former Head of Content, Recruitee
Brendan's a great utility marketer who'd be able to slot easily into any team, in any industry, and hit the ground running. He has a great knowledge base in a number of complimentary areas that are supremely useful in digital: SEO/CDO strategy, content development, video production, and paid SEM. Bonus points: his copywriting is SHARP. You don't run across many creative professionals with strong technical marketing skills who also have a knack for making their words stand out in a rich media environment. This is one of them.
