The Journey
What started as a solo venture, 7 Eagles has evolved into a team of over 25 visionpreneurs ( They hire people who have entrepreneurial mindset), excelling in SEO & Growth Marketing. In 2023, they achieved a revenue of $400K ARR. But let’s take a step back and look at how it all began. Four years ago, Gomez started 7 Eagles as a side hustle in a small space.
At that time, the market lacked a dedicated agency focusing solely on SEO services. This gap in the market sparked Gomez’s dream to build an agency dedicated to SEO services. Gomez learned SEO on his own, spending countless nights building the website and creating content. Until November 2020, he had no idea about hiring, but he continued doing what he loved – training people in what he had learned.
That’s when his students turned into his team. Today, 7 Eagles provides world-class services in SEO & Growth Marketing. But their journey doesn’t stop here. They have started investing assets into building products and are on a mission to build a community of financially knowledgeable entrepreneurs through their ‘FINtrepreneur’ Newsletter. They are heading towards a day when every youngster breaks the stigma of dependency.
About the Company
7 Eagles started as a bootstrapped marketing agency and grew from scratch to $400K ARR in just four years with a team of over 25 members. Now, they are transitioning into a technology company where they are building products that could solve problems of marketing agencies, Healthcare & hospital, Fintech, D2C, and Real estate sectors.
7 Eagles is a leading Growth Marketing Agency, specializing in SEO services, and Performance Marketing with a Growth Hacking Strategy. They are based in Chennai, Tamil Nadu. They are a team of marketing professionals from different sectors, joined together to provide the best business solutions to their clients.
Their company was founded by Gomez in 2019 as a digital marketing agency. Recognizing that “Riches are in the niches”, they decided to focus on one service – SEO. In just three years, they became one of the leading SEO companies in India, working with 200 clients across 10+ countries. During the initial days, Gomez built the team by training every individual to become a pioneer in SEO through an internship program.
This led to the birth of the 7 Eagles Academy, offering an SEO course at their office. With a vision of expanding, they have started an online SEO course with the goal of creating more SEO freelancers and agency owners.
In the last year, they have been focusing on Growth Marketing and Performance Marketing as their next set of services.
