Highly trained marketing pros
When you purchase a 10Things review, you aren’t getting a cookie-cutter report written by a 1st-year marketer. The 10Things team is personally trained by Ian Lurie, Portent’s CEO. They’re veteran marketers who know their way around a web site.
Who the heck is Ian Lurie?
I know what you’re thinking: Who’s this Ian Lurie guy? Why do I care if he trained the team?
Ian's an internet marketing expert with 14 years' experience. He is the president of Portent Interactive (which he started, 14 years ago). He blogs at Conversation Marketing, wrote a book by the same name, and recently co-authored Web Marketing For Dummies: The All In One Desk Reference.
He's consulted for The Seattle Times, Princess, Brides Magazine, Advertising Age, AutoWeek and Lucky Brand Jeans.
In short, he's been around the block a few times, knows what works and what doesn't, and can provide an honest appraisal of your web site and strategy.
Ian also speaks about internet marketing around the country:



...and his agency, Portent Interactive, is an SEOMOZ recommended company.
But this internet thing has never worked for me...
That's because you've never done it right. For years, you've trusted friends, relatives and stamped-out assembly-line web site firms to turn your web site into a marketing tool.
That's like dressing the cast of A Chorus Line in sweats. You have a great story to tell. But you have to tell it well, and potential clients/customers have to find you.
You haven't missed the boat, though. Internet marketing is a series of things that are simple but not easy. Get the right recommendations and you'll be in good shape.
You need the perspective of someone who's been in internet marketing for more than a decade: Our clear, direct style will blow away the cobwebs around your site and get you on the right track.
Show me some proof!
OK. Here's what other clients have said about working with Ian and Portent:
Doug Buenz, Realtor, 680Homes.
Matthew Montgomery, OneTake Media
Nina Restieri, momAgenda
Tim Nichols, Senior Developer for Travel4Health.com
And, from Hamilton Wallace, marketing consultant:
