Most companies will focus a large portion of their SEO strategy purely on the creation of new content. This works well but it often results in neglecting many wins that can be had with existing content. Matthew will be exploring new ways of thinking on restructuring site architecture, making gains through consolidation (not creation), and realigning user experience to increase organic traffic. All of this will be presented with real examples, data, and stories that won't be shared anywhere else.
How to Make Visual Content on a Shoestring BudgetKaizen
In our first year, we made 92 pieces of visual content for SEO campaigns. Despite an internal production budget of £250, we won links off major newspapers and magazines. Here's the exact process we used.
This is all about the (many) time(s) we’ve been fired by search clients. Understand, we get fired less often than we get hired. That’s why Portent still exists. But there are those cases where you fervently believe you did everything right, the client can’t point to any issues, and yet you still get thrown out on your behind.
Frustrating. So I started digging – I asked a lot of uncomfortable questions of my clients. Of former clients. Of clients in the act of becoming former clients.
75% of them – literally, I kept count – said things like “we just felt like we wanted… more.”
That was puzzling, because we’ve delivered within our scope of work, every time. Clearly, something else is going on.
I asked more uncomfortable questions (trust me, they’re not fun) and slowly realized that this isn’t about the work for which we were hired. It’s about the context in which the work took place. It’s about strategy.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.
