Derrick Tulali | Acute SEO Founder

Derrick Tulali always knew that his place in the world was in helping businesses. Before he founded Acute SEO, he provided merchant services and founded ShopCard AppSolutions. There were many hard lessons learned during that time and it’s still a venture that is alive today. Saving business owner’s 2-4% in transaction fees didn’t fulfill his need to help businesses succeed. The desire to propel his clients to success is what directed his focus on search engine optimization.

He founded Acute SEO in 2017 as a small boutique SEO agency in Reno, Nevada, with client results as its primary focus. He was determined to change the industry stigma of gimmicks, black hat tactics and wasting people’s hard-earned money. Since then, Acute SEO now offers a full digital marketing line-up that includes: SEO, PPC and Web Design.

As Acute SEO has grown, so has the team. Starting with his wife, Jazzi, her influence is undisputed throughout the inner workings of Acute SEO. Two cousins, Gerard and Justine, sister-in-law Carissa, and PPC expert Leo. They all share the same determination to transform the digital marketing industry to interlock with honesty, transparency, skill and the sincere desire to help businesses succeed. No broken promises, inflated dreams, and no strings attached. They are focused on the clients, in-tune with their needs, and what will bring them one step closer to their overall goal. They want to build real relationships out of clients, where they have a unique opportunity to be part of your success story.

When Derrick is not glued to his desk, he’s enjoys spending time with his wife Jazzi and their sweet, precocious dog Murphy. They enjoy four-wheeling in their Jeep, trips to the lake, naps, karaoke, binge watching TV shows, BBQ’s, and Golf.

There's nothing I can say that hasn't already been said about these guys! Having the initial conversation with Derrick was a blast and what a wealth of information! If the rest of the reviews haven't convinced you yet, set up a consultation -- best decision you can make for your business -- hands down.

I used Derrick and his team at Acute SEO for both of my companies and am beyond thrilled with the results in just a few months. His rates are reasonable, he and his team are the consummate professionals and (the best yet?) he UNDER promises. That's right - he under promised and OVER achieved. So grateful - I hope we work with him for a long time.

Derrick has been an immense help in discovering the difference between the type of SEO strategy and tactics that actually make a difference. SEO can be very confusing, and I could tell an immediate difference from other companies with how Derrick operates. The entire conversation was focused on what we could do specifically for our business, and not on choosing a "blanket SEO package" that will do XYZ first. He was happy to offer advice on SEO that has taken years for him to master at no charge. I would highly recommend!

Diane, thanks again for contacting me with Derrick. He is a wealth of information! I can say with my former experience of being owner/developer of a very successful web-based business once upon a time, he knows his stuff. If I hadn't had that prior experience, it would be nearly impossible to know what he's talking about. His level of abilities and communication are so high, it would be Greek to almost everyone. In this case one would just have to trust and wait to measure results. As you know SEO is not one of those tasks that happen immediately. It takes planning, focus, persistence, up-to-date skill application, organic growth, testing and most of all time. I'm excited to see how his advice will work for me which ultimately will result in revenue for Chase.

For years we have struggled with our website and the people that are suppose to be managing it. Derrick created a great new website for us, and has successfully been managing our SEO for the last 6 months. Well worth the money!

Derrick took our website from a level 1 on ranking and domain authority and quickly bumped those numbers up, causing us to rank on the first page of google for many of our desired search phrases. He’s always quick to respond to my emails and gives me monthly updates on performance.

I engaged Acute SEO to increase my business presence on the internet. They immediately exceeded all of my expectations and continue to to so in what has become one of the most important business relationships of my law practice. I can't recommend Acute SEO highly enough.

In one phone call consultation I got more value thrown at me than I’ve ever gotten before. I strongly urge you to at the very least schedule a phone consultation with Acute. Your website deserves it!

Derrick and the Acute SEO team are professional, hardworking, and good at what they do! Two days after signing our contract our company (who was not ranking at all on Google) began ranking number 1 in multiple caterogies and locations. Derrick is accessible and spends time to learn your business and answer questions. He is intelligent, honest, and kind. Having talked to multiple SEO companies, Derrick was the most responsive and authentic. Highly recommend Acute SEO for your SEO and online presence needs. Best digital marketing company around!

AcuteSEO works hard and thinks outside of the SEO box to generate results that few others can do. In today's world where everyone is throwing money down a hole, AcuteSEO works smarter so your dollars matter.

Working with Acute SEO has been one of the greatest things I have done in my entrepreneurial life! Derrick has helped my so much in my web design, and SEO rankings, I can not wait to start a facebook and instagram campaign in the upcoming months to see what kind of positive result we get in the upcoming year! 10/10 would highly recommend.

Acute SEO has been a tremendous help in growing my business. Our online presence was next to nothing prior to working with Acute. Now I am happy to say we are getting more calls, more visits to our web page, and more business.

I didn't know where to start when marketing my business. I spoke to Derrick a few months ago and he helped get my business to the top of the google with a new website. I've had calls everyday and new customers daily with what he did. Best decision I ever made. You get what you pay for. 5/5!
