SEO companies are they worth it? Or should I do it myself?

I have been talking to a search engine optimization (SEO) company about having them work on increasing my company's Google results. It needs to be done. We are on the top of the second page of Google on two very important keyword phrases. I wonder if it is worth $2,500 a month or if I should take a stab at it instead. I know how to do it and I know where to find SEO resources.  I just don't know if I have time to do it. However, I would rather not spend the money if I don't have too. 

Do you have any thoughts? 

Crowd Sourcing My MBA

Find value in the crowd.  

The world of an entrepreneur is wonderfully fulfilling place. It is where you get to control your destiny and take on roles you probably wouldn't experience otherwise - CEO, sales, marketing, business development, etc. Because of this many entrepreneurs question whether an MBA is helpful for their career path. Does it increase the likelihood of success or it unnecessary and just takes up time and money? 

The purpose of this blog is to be my Entrepreneurial MBA. It is designed to crowd source my MBA and bring people who have experience, wisdom, ambition, and curiosity together to develop ideas about managing small companies who want to grow. This blog is a win-win for everyone who reads and comments on posts. When everyone contributes, everyone learns and receives value. 

I warmly invite each person who visits this blog to share their experiences about each topic and contribute to this entrepreneurial MBA. And remember the networking effect (the more people who use something the more valuable it is) and invite your friends to contribute as well.

Discover crowd sourcing.
