My name is Mason Blake. I'm an engineer and serial entrepreneur. I've founded 2 venture backed startups (amongst several other bootstrapped companies), raised tens of millions in venture capital, exited one business to LinkedIn. But the startup game led to burnout. Working too much for too long took it's toll on me mentally and physically. So I've left the world of VC startups and I'm now passionate about putting myself, my health, happiness, and family first while building and buying cash flowing businesses. In many of my businesses, one thing I often lead is SEO. I learned in the early days as a lead web engineer making sure the site could at least tick the boxes for on-site technical SEO. That led to doing more and more SEO over time. I don't run an SEO agency but I've sure thought about it before. I'm preparing my 1st Skool community to teach others about startups, running online businesses and all that goes with this wild and wonderful journey.
