RAY BLAKNEY
Your Pitch
thought you might be interested in interviewing Ray Blakney, CEO and co-founder of the renowned online language school, Live Lingua. An award-winning Filipino-American entrepreneur, speaker, and podcaster, Ray also builds and helps others build 6- and 7-figure businesses on a bootstrap budget using SEO.
 
Live Lingua offers a unique and immersive approach to mastering a new language, as it pairs users with their own hand-picked, certified, native-speaking tutor for online teaching sessions via video chat.
 
Ray and his wife launched Live Lingua in 2009 in Mexico out of complete necessity, because the Mexican swine flu crisis dealt a major blow to their previous brick-and-mortar language immersion school in Mexico. Now, over a decade later, Live Lingua has been continuously growing and dominating the online language learning scene.
 
He would be happy to chat about why being a guest on podcasts is an excellent way to market a business, SEO mishaps that a lot of new business owners unknowingly commit, and the biggest lessons he learned from surviving and thriving through two pandemics (both the Mexican Swine Flu crisis of 2009 and COVID-19).
