What changed that allowed Leveling Up to finally turn the corner?

The big shift was our SEO starting to kick in. We ranked number one in the U.S. for “digital marketing agency” for a couple of years. We had huge brands like Uber and Amazon reaching out. Because we were down to basically one employee, we referred a lot of work to other agencies and collected commissions. That cash flow gave Leveling Up the runway to hire and slowly rebuild.
