Hi Karsten Madsen here :) Cofounder & CEO at Morningscore $1.5M ARR gamified SEO tool founded in 2018. Also co-founded 40 people digital agency Morningtrain in 2010. Ask me anything!
Hey folks, i'm Karsten Madsen, huge passion for SEO and old school video games. Combining it with Morningscore - gamified SEO tool. All my childhood I thought I was a loser. SEO rescued me by finally offering me something I was just truly good at so I could save my first company from bankruptcy 😅
Built a digital agency and grew sales via SEO + networking to 40 people. And then later an SEO tool that is now at 4000+ clients and $1.5M yearly revenue. Long term goal is to be the no. 1 tool and beat Semrush 😎 Trying to be a good human and stay noble in a pretty screwed up biz world.
Things to ask me that might help you:
- How it is to run and grow an agency vs a SaaS tool
- Anything about SaaS - I can openly share almost all our numbers
- The last 4 tough years for me and how I see the industry moving forward
- All my SEO projects: results + failures - no filter
- SEO + GEO data and my honest opinion about it as a tool maker
- How I see the future of SEO
- Honest biz advice
Personal stuff:
- Born in Soutern Denmark.
- 35 years old.
- Live in Amsterdam since 2022.
- French wife. 2 kids.
- Office and team in Denmark while working remote from here (yes it's weird)
- Love video games. Especially N64 era. But any game with art and soul.
- Hate mobile dopamine crap games that somehow young kids love ;D
- Enjoy sports. Started playing field hockey. Big here in Netherlands.
