Our Crew

Your Journey Starts Here

Paul Staten

CEO / Founder

Paul Staten is an Inc. 500 CEO and a serial entrepreneur. He has been in the trenches of business creation and cultivation. He has a wonderful wife and four kids at home including his adorable identical twin girls. You might be able to hear the story of how his twins came so quickly he was able to deliver them at home before any paramedics showed up. While he doesn't pass well for an OBGYN, that venture was a complete success!

He spends as much time as possible with his family after work but when he is not found at home, he is often out serving. It's not uncommon to find this CEO shoveling snow from driveways, helping neighbors move or serving with his local scout troop as a scoutmaster - and finding joy in the service. He is a religious person and believes his talents and successes come from blessings from a loving God. Religion gives him a moral compass that translates into all of his businesses and helps direct them for good. SEO Werkz was featured in the Inc 500 list of 2016 at #246. The first business he created is a computer repair service that still serves clients today, 10 years after it's inception.

He knows absolutely nothing about any sports teams, loves EDM and can sing pretty well - although American Idol rejected him. At least it didn't hurt his ego too much and he was able to get back to running his businesses.

Andrew Call

Client Strategy Team Lead

Andrew first learned about digital marketing while studying journalism at BYU. Alongside his love of writing, he also loved the strategy and challenge that digital marketing offered. So soon after graduating and working his first writing gig, he realized he belonged in an agency! He now feels right at home as a Client Success Manager at SEO Werkz.

Outside of the office, Andrew loves listening to music, watching chick flicks with his wife, playing ultimate frisbee, and running. He's also a die-hard Utah Jazz fan - it's probably best to not bring up last season when you're around him.

Angie Tolman

Director of Administration

Being a business owner myself in the past, I know what it takes to get the job done and have fun doing it. I have a passion for everything I do or I don't do it at all!

When I'm not at work, you will find me taking in new sights, and enjoying the California beaches with my wonderful husband, 2 precious bonus kiddos and beautiful daughter.

I love to serve and make others smile. I chose the digital marketing world because I love the fast pace of it. I also love being a part of helping businesses take off and do the "impossible."

SEO Werkz has (by far) been the most incredible company to work for. Not only do they know what they are doing, they have a strong foundation built on integrity! (It is hard to find all of that in one place)

Our customers don't just feel like they are just another number. They feel like a friend.

Jana Gonzales

Sr. PPC Manager

I have a degree in B.S. in Architecture but it seems the universe has a different plan for me. From making architectural plans, designing structures, supervising building constructions, you’ll wonder why I ended up as a full-time PPC manager.

I have been working as a PPC manager for more than six years now and I have been with SEO Werkz for most of those years. PPC management doesn’t start and end with just building the account and getting traffic. Every account is unique, every client has their own goal so you have to optimize and design strategies for each and every account.

I think this is the reason why I fell in love with the craft. Being able to give these businesses sales or new clients is like knowing that you have contributed not just to the growth of our own company but to the businesses of the clients as well.

During my days off I usually spend it with my family going to the mall, watching movies, playing bingo, eating and traveling.

Jaline Gonzales

PPC Manager

My career in Online Advertising can still be considered fresh since I’ve only started a couple of years ago. I know I have a long way to go and so many things to learn but knowing how dedicated I am and the amount of hard work I give each client per se can expect the job done more than what they expected me to deliver.

I’m a career-driven woman that just started making a mark at SEO Werkz, who’s very grateful to be part of the team ever since. I draw strength from my family and loved ones to be able to hit my goals and be who I am destined to be.

Why are we great for each other?

Have you worked with an internet marketing company whose customer service skills were lacking?  What has happened to the concept of servicing the customer?  Our industry seems to pride itself on providing unimaginative service.

Call us old-fashioned, but we believe in a balance between taking care of our team and taking care of the customer.  We believe in philosophies perpetuated in books like “Raving Fans” and “Good to Great”, for these books are the cornerstones of successful companies who believe in doing right by the customer.

We believe that we can provide a better experience for our clients.  Every business we work with has unique distinctions requiring a unique approach.  We realized that working hand in hand with our clients is more rewarding than turning a quick buck.  We learned that why we do something is more important than what we do, and we learned that lasting relationships ultimately drive our customer’s success.

All too often do people in our industry hide behind laptop screens and ignore the human interaction that is ultimately necessary to build lasting relationships.  It’s not surprising that customers jump from company to company trying to find one that actually cares and delivers. It’s not uncommon to hear new potential clients rejoice with surprise that we actually respond to their needs. Many have left reviews stating this, in which you can read here.

We have a sign in our office which states: “We don’t just build links, we build relationships.”  That is a philosophy we have internalized in our company.  We aren’t just a marketing company.  We believe in being the marketing department of your company.  You look to us for advice and we strive hard to deliver on your needs.

We believe that we serve a bigger purpose.  We believe we can make a difference in your company and we approach every client from that point of view.  That is what drives us every day, especially when we help businesses with their SEO.

SEO Werkz is a full-service Internet marketing and Search Engine Optimization (SEO) services company offering results-driven services and exceptional customer support. Our web marketing services include Social Media, Link Building, Local Search, PPC, Content Creation, Web Design, and Retargeting.
