What Event Hosts and Audiences Say

Here is some of the feedback from conference organisers, platform partners, and marketing leaders who have seen Charlie speak.

I saw Charlie speak at MozCon London in August this year and still feel the impact. Great, knowledgeable speaker with relation to the audience as a practitioner who can guide us through uncertainty with credible case studies, proven tactics, and engaging storytelling that keeps the audience invested throughout.

Kanaar Bell

Moz

Charlie is great at making SEO less scary! It’s one of the topics I most often hear marketers aren’t confident in, but Charlie’s explanations of it during Spotler webinars have been very well received by our audience.

Charlie was also the first person I turned to when Google’s AI Mode arrived. She was kind enough to immediately do an interview about how marketers should get started tackling the changes, which became one of our most popular resources.

Richard Wall

Spotler

Charlie was absolutely brilliant at our roundtable, presenting about GEO. Such a clear, engaging speaker, and we had fantastic feedback from everyone who joined us. I actually discovered her through ChatGPT, which probably says everything you need to know about how strong her GEO skills are. Would love to work with her again

Georgia Wells

Vamoos

Charlie is an outstanding speaker and one of my all time faves for sure!

Chima Mmeje

Moz

Charlie was a recent guest on my podcast. Her expert knowledge on SEO and AI search was fantastic, and she was great at making everything relatable to business owners – no overwhelming jargon. She was a fantastic guest and we will definitely work together again in the future.
