Description

She cut her teeth in direct-response media. From 2007 her team built ~60 channels for a restricted client and turned them into hundreds of millions in sales—many still active. Two years ago she and Matthew Pierce launched TurboRank.co to do the same focused work for e-commerce and brand clients.

What’s dead in 2026: random uploads and no strategy. What works: deep diagnostics, content calendars built on winnable searches, weekly consistency, proper optimisation and off-page signals (especially Reddit). These push ranking, feed AI citations and unlock YouTube Shop—high-margin, first-party sales with zero platform fees for Shopify brands.
