My story
Hi — I’m Howard.
For 18 years, I’ve been finding the leverage point — the system, the automation, the process — that makes everything else easier. And then building it.
My first company was a music community I grew to half a million monthly visitors with no funding and no ads. Just SEO and stubbornness. That taught me something I still believe:
Growth isn’t magic. It’s systems.
That belief took me from a bootstrapped startup in Texas to leading growth at Fortune 500 telecom brands, public e-commerce companies, and VC-backed startups. Different industries, different scales — but always the same question: what’s the system that makes this grow?
Sometimes it was programmatic SEO generating millions of pages. Sometimes it was a performance marketing engine that cut acquisition costs in half. Sometimes it was an ecommerce platform built from scratch. The answer changed. The question never did.
Now the answer is AI.
The systems that build themselves.
Now I build AI agents and automations for businesses. Not chatbots. Not prototypes. Production systems — the kind that publish content, manage workflows, and generate reports while you sleep.
I also build my own products. I have AI agents running across multiple businesses right now — handling daily content, social media, analytics, and video production without human intervention. Everything I advise clients to do, I’ve already built for myself.
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.
