Sherpa! Founder Felfoldi featured in Business to Business Magazine

Business to Business Magazine recently interviewed Sherpa! Web Studios founder David Felfoldi for its Lunch with a VIP series. The original digital version can be found online.

The lunch took place at BuckheadLife Restaurant Group's Buckhead Diner, one of Felfoldi's favorite Atlanta fine dining restaurants. (Tip: for the best culinary experience, get the home made potato chips with warm maytag blue cheese, share a blue plate special, save room for the white chocolate banana cream pie, and have an ambulance on call just in case).

Naming his company after the Himalayan mountaineering guides – Sherpas – who form strong bonds with their rock-climbing charges, Felföldi’s organization recently won top search engine marketing honors from the Atlanta Interactive Marketing Association for its work with Spanx.

“Search engine optimization (SEO) is all about building an online brand,” says Felföldi, who did quite a lot of rock climbing in his younger days.

“It’s all about finding that balance between a good online experience and enabling you to engage in a digital online marketing campaign.”

Felföldi founded his own company, Vascent, with a business partner when he was 18. In 2006, he branched out on his own again with Sherpa! Web Studios, an interactive marketing and SEO/design company.

“We’re very selective about who we take as a client,” he says. “In fact, we’ve actually fired some clients for one reason or another. And no client has left us.”

Felföldi actively is involved with the community through publication in trade journals and various non-profits.
