In Episode 6 of Beyond SEO, Glen Chamisa sits down with Founder Kevin Kapezi and SEO Strategist Sarif Sarker to explore the future of Growthack, from moving beyond a one-man consultancy to building a small, senior “special forces” SEO team.
Together they break down:
1. Why long-term 5-year plans don’t make sense in 2025.
2. The shift from consultant → leader.
3. How a lean expert team can outperform larger agencies.
4. The differences between B2B and eCommerce SEO.
5. What Growthack wants to achieve in the next five years.
6. Why specialist-led client relationships work better than account management layers.
If you’re a CMO, marketing leader or senior SEO looking to understand how small teams scale impact — this is the episode.
