What's The Appropriate Title For A Local SEO Business Card?

I'm starting a local SEO company with my friend and was wondering what the correct title to put on the business card is.

Since we're not incorporated, President or CEO doesn't seem right.

We're not an llc yet, either, although that might happen further down the road.

Since it's a marketing and consulting company, we're thinking about just putting "Consultant" on the cards.

For those of you that have done local seo, what did you do regarding this?

All the other titles I've been thinking of just don't seem right.

Here's some fuel for the fire, bitches.

what was your question again?




i'd say put 'business specialist' or 'internet marketer' since i know from my experience in selling web design and seo services that 90% of my customers are idiots and just need reassurance that they are dealing with someone who does what they want.

Regardless of whether I'm the CEO I always put a lesser position on my business cards for a few reasons.

If I don't have an answer to their question, or I need time to think about something I can say "Let me get with XXX on that and get back to you" so I don't look stupid standing there without an answer.

On the flip side If someone is trying to pressure me into buying something, or using hard selling tactics I always have the out "Well I'm not the final decision maker, let me talk with XXX and get back to you. Do you have a card?"

I don't know what sort of image you're trying to portray but something like "SERP Consultant" or "SEO Expert" might work.

not to thread hijack You Jeff but where is the best place to purchase business cards in bulk for cheap? I am also in a similar situation as you and need to buy some in bulk but don't want to loose my shirt.

where are you getting yours made?

I go by SEO consultant or Internet Marketing Consultant. (depending on the client, the site they found me with, or the referral ;) )

but I guess it just depends on what exactly you're doing. The smaller you are the better going as a "consultant" is imo.

edit: lol at the tag
 
Senior {marketing|advertising|getting shit done} {consultant|manager|executive}.

Seriously though, drop the internet/online shit, and make sure you include the senior bit.
 
Director of Marketing, VP of Marketing, etc.

Same reason listed above - high enough position to garner attention, but gives you an "out" if you need it. When I see President or CEO on a card I automatically question that person's self-esteem.
