— Marketing Strategist
I build marketing systems that turn search engines into lead machines — combining paid ads, organic SEO, and local search to deliver predictable, measurable growth.
About Matt
I’m Matt Tarsikes — founder of Photon SEO and a marketing strategist obsessed with one thing: results that actually show up in your revenue, not just your reports.
I founded Photon SEO because I was tired of watching talented business owners struggle with inconsistent lead flow while agencies collected checks for vanity metrics. My approach is different: I build complete growth systems that combine paid search, organic SEO, and local visibility into a single, compounding engine.
No fluff. No gimmicks. Just proven, data-driven strategies that put your business in front of people actively searching for what you offer — and turn them into paying customers.
