Looking to get some tips and insights about PR in Asia – episode 91 is for you – let’s do this!Hey guys, so I’m heading down to Philippines this weekend for a week – last minute decision to go down but I’m going in to a partnership with my friend Josh on a SEO business there. He and I almost did this business back in 2010/2011 timeframe when I was down in Philippines, but he went to USA for a few years and just came back, and I moved back to China. So the stars are aligned, and I’m glad to have a reliable partner down in Cebu who I can work with on some web and internet marketing projects. I’ll share some photos when I’m down, I do need a change from China and hope to catch some beach time as well! Sunday July 5 for about a week – just a one way ticket booked so far – and only 90 usd one way via Cebu Pacific, nice! Direct too. I will work out some standard services, but the office will fit about 30 people so if you want some dedicated seats with some talented people in a cool internet marketing company, hit me up!
Got a new 5 star review – makes me day so I’m going to read it out for everyone:
