Eric Lee, founder of SEOD

Eric Lee, founder. San Mateo, California.

Why us

Experience from both sides of the business.

SEOD wasn’t built only from the agency side. Eric Lee spent 16 years inside operations, responsible for businesses where marketing decisions eventually had to show up somewhere real: in customers, in labor, in margin, and in the P&L.

He has been the person buying this work, and living with the result when it did not land. That is what shapes how SEOD works today.

16

Years running real businesses as an operator, not just marketing for them.

$54M+

In annual P&L managed across BCD Tofu House, Gen Korean Barbecue, Sake2Me Sushi, and Obaba Fresh.

18+

Industries worked in, from restaurants and clinics to trades and nonprofits.
