About
Hi, I’m Howard Huang.
I’m a growth marketer who sets up AI that does real work, for marketers and business owners who aren’t developers.
For 18 years I’ve built growth systems, from a music site that reached 500,000 monthly visitors with no ads to a $0 to $100 million ecommerce launch at Huawei. Now I build AI agents and automations: for my own products first, then for clients.
Growth isn’t magic. It’s systems.
What I do
1:1 Claude Code setup sessions
A 90-minute call on your real work. I set up Claude Code on your machine, we build your first automation live, and you run it yourself before we hang up.
How a session works →AI agents and workflow automation
Agents that take repeat work off your plate: weekly reports, content, research. I build them around your actual tools and files.
Growth marketing and SEO
18 years of SEO, paid media and conversion work across ecommerce, marketplaces and fintech. It's how I pick what to automate first: the work closest to revenue.
What’s different about working with me
I run my own businesses this way
Every system I set up for clients, I built for myself first. AI agents handle content, analytics and reporting across my own products right now.
A marketer, not a developer
I learned this the slow way so you can learn it in one call. If you can install an app, you can run what we build.
Built on your real work
We build on your files and your task, on your machine. You leave with something running.
Growth results with numbers behind them
I led the team that took Huawei Device USA's direct-to-consumer sales from $0 to $100 million in two years. At RumbleOn we cut cost per acquisition by 50%. MadeLoud reached 500,000 monthly visitors with no ad spend.
You work with me, start to finish
No account manager and no handoff. The person on the call is the person who built it.
Who I work with
- Marketers who want AI doing part of their job
- Business owners with one task they'd pay to never do again
- Founders and small teams without a developer on staff
My background
I started MadeLoud in 2007, an online music community that grew to 80,000 members and 500,000 monthly visitors on SEO alone. Since then I’ve led growth and ecommerce at Huawei Device USA, LeEco, Kavout, UP Trade, RumbleOn and Renew Brands.
In 2025 I started Kate & Emmett Company, which contracts and invoices my client work. I live in Dallas–Fort Worth. The full history is on my work page.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to be technical?
No. If you can install an app, you're qualified. I'm not a developer either.
What happens on a session?
In the first 15 minutes we pick the task you hate most. In the next hour I build it with you on your machine. In the last 15 minutes you run it yourself while I watch.
Do you build automations beyond the 1:1 session?
Yes: AI agents, workflow automation and marketing systems. Tell me what you want off your plate on the contact page.
How does payment work?
Booking is free. Kate & Emmett Company, my company, sends the invoice for the session.
Where are you based?
Dallas–Fort Worth, Texas. Sessions run on Google Meet, so where you are doesn't matter.
What I write & talk about
Four topics I keep
coming back to.
AI Agents & Automation
Building AI systems that do real work — content agents, workflow automation, autonomous operations. What’s working in production right now, not what might work someday.
SEO & Organic Growth
18 years of growing businesses through search — programmatic SEO, content systems, AI-powered strategies. How to compound traffic without spending a dollar on ads.
Marketing in the AI Era
How AI is reshaping demand generation, content strategy, and the entire marketing function. What changes, what doesn’t, and where the leverage is.
Shipping Products
Lessons from launching SaaS tools, hardware products, marketplaces, and side projects. What I got right, what I got wrong, and what I’d skip next time.
Let’s build something together.
Whether you need AI agents, automation systems, or growth strategy — I’d love to hear what you’re working on.
