He talks about the move away from being purely SEO based and shifting into the marketing and sales industries, adding value further along in the pipeline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Numbers are difficult to remember because they have little semantic meaning on their own. Rand uses bold colours and graphics to help readers contextualise these numbers. He chooses a few data points, such as the audience slide, and explains them in context.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The presentation is clearly laid out and easy to read, with humour added to give the impression Moz is a fun place to work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Our favourite quotes:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>&#8220;Moz&#8217;s mission is to help people do better marketing&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>&#8220;Strategy is as much about what you are not going to do as what you are going to do&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-slideshare wp-block-embed-slideshare\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Moz: A New Beginning\" src=\"https:\/\/www.slideshare.net\/slideshow\/embed_code\/key\/1ZEHZGVRFQgVpW\" width=\"427\" height=\"356\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" style=\"border:1px solid #CCC; border-width:1px; margin-bottom:5px; max-width: 100%;\" allowfullscreen> <\/iframe> <div style=\"margin-bottom:5px\"> <strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.slideshare.net\/randfish\/moz-a-new-beginning\" title=\"Moz: A New Beginning\" target=\"_blank\">Moz: A New Beginning<\/a> <\/strong> from <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.slideshare.net\/randfish\" target=\"_blank\">Rand Fishkin<\/a><\/strong> <\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Netflix culture code<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\">REED HASTINGS<\/h6>\n\n\n\n<p>At over 100 slides, this is one of the largest public culture code presentations and one of the most famous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Reed talks about the 7 aspects of their culture, from values to salaries &#8211; this deck is an honest insight into the Netflix culture and how it runs as a company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This presentation encourages conversation and is now one of the most shared ever.
