Meet Ana, Senior SEO Outreach Specialist at SaaS SEO agency: Skale. Come and say hi!

Want to know more about working as an SEO Outreach Specialist, and what their typical day looks like? Ana spills the beans on all things SEO Outreach at Skale!

Let’s get to know her.

Meet an SEO Outreach Specialist!

Tell us a little bit about you!

Hey! I’m Ana, Senior SEO Outreach Specialist, coming to you all the way from Macedonia. Having worked remotely for almost two years in Skale, my job is enriching our clients’ backlink profiles while crafting new outreach strategies.

Great to meet you, Ana! Tell us about your onboarding process when you first joined the team?

As I was just entering the world of SEO when I joined Skale, the structure of the onboarding process was great to ease me in gently and set me up for success. I also learnt a bunch of tips and tricks that ultimately helped me scale my outreach efforts!

My first week was dedicated to learning the processes in the company, getting to know the team, and reading the articles in our internal knowledge hub prepared by the most experienced outreach professionals in the company. 

During my second week, I started warming up my email, and slowly started to reach out to companies with the support of my manager. 

What do you enjoy most about your role at Skale?

I love that I’m constantly learning! Working with SaaS clients across different industries means learning their product and the challenges they solve. By delving deeper into different niches, our team is able to deliver more successful outreach campaigns.

Have you experienced any main challenges?

I’ve definitely learnt not to take rejection personally. Not everyone will want to work with you, that’s normal and it shouldn’t bring your spirit down. By focusing on building long-term relationships, we can achieve more results. 

Which is your favourite company perk?

Flexibility all the way! Being able to organize your day and take a longer break when you need it is amazing.

I love that you actually have time to cook and prepare a healthy lunch, instead of rushing around, spending money on junk food, and trying to eat it within a set timeframe!

Sometimes life happens, and you need to pop out to run an errand such as going to the bank, or to the dentist – instead of using vacation time, you can do what you need to do and plan your schedule around those appointments.

Last question! Working remotely, do you feel you’ve had good opportunities to collaborate with colleagues and learn from them?

Absolutely! I’ve worked together at some point with every single person in my department and everyone is happy to share ideas and techniques. People are always happy to help and jump on a quick call if needed, too! We can take it upon ourselves to arrange meetings when we want to discuss new approaches and create resources together for our knowledge hub. I really enjoy the working environment here, and find my colleagues very welcoming and helpful.

That’s all folks!

Thanks for taking the time to meet Ana. We hope you found this a great insight into what life is like here at Skale, as well as what it’s like to be an SEO Outreach Specialist!

We’ll let you in on a secret – we’re currently hiring an SEO Outreach Specialist to complement our existing team! If you think Skale may be the right fit for you, check out our careers page.
