Marcos is brilliant in a maverick way which is what you'd expect in an innovator! I've had the pleasure of working with him on Zen, the Google content gap analysis tool he developed. We worked closely together putting insight and strategy together. It was a delight to work with him, he's a real character in and out of work. His ideas are always cutting edge.

Paul Shepherd

Marcos is flat out an expert at SEO strategy and implementation, particularly Local SEO. During our time co-pitching on deals Marcos was pivotal in assisting iLLUSTRiS to win business with Multi Location brands. Marcos is a pleasure to deal with and always exceeds expectations. I would certainly recommend his business acumen and digital marketing expertise to any brand that wants to be come a market leader online. Definitely a thought leader and someone who will over deliver.
