How To Present SEO Results To Customer?

I am not always the most tactful person and I need to present current results of my SEO efforts to a customer but want to do so in a way that does not come off as bragging or superior. I simply want him to see that he is getting good value and good results.

As a bit of background, he is a small used car dealership and had a site that just didn't sow up at all in SERP top 100 listings on any search engine other than Live.com. He was using a web development company that had him locked in to their hosting and had no control over making changes to the site.

I developed a totally new site for his dealership, got him independent hosting that he has total control over as well. Now, the site has much better SERP on Google, Live.com, AltaVista, and Yahoo. Several of his preferred search phrases place his site at position 1 and most show his site on the first page of results.

The new site has been live only a month and most searc engines still have a lot of junk indexed from the old site. Google is catching up slowly but surely to the new content.

So, anyway, how should I present this? I was thinkig of simply emailing a couple of ranking reports to compare the old site to the new site but would that be sufficient?

Logo for Review

I have never been a good designer, but today I started to play with logo design. I'm definitely not an expert but I dont think my efforts are too shabby.

Content Being Copied Repeatedly

I have a blog, the URL to which can be seen in the signature.

I have submitted that in Google Blog Search, Google Blog Search

A few days back I did the phrase match search for the keyword "the seo blog" and to my utter surprise I saw my blog's content in the other websites listing.

Further more, that site has copied not only 1 or 2 posts from my blog, infact many posts.

Need Non-FrontPage FP Form Handling App

Since FrontPage no longer has support because it has been discontinued, and many webhosting sites no longer offer FP server extensions, I need to find a replacement for the FrontPage form handler that our company has been using quite frequently to gather data from website users.

I need a simple to implement and use form handler that mimics how the FrontPage form handler operates:

Ranking Sinking For Own Name

I have a client site, quorumassociates.com that is doing fine for the company name, but when I search for the Managing Director's name (Francis Goldwyn) is doesn't come up at all. A couple of months ago it did, but now he's nowhere to be seen.

The results refer back to him via a bunch of older sites/links, but don't reference his current site. We've got his name on the pages via relevant content as well as the meta tags. We add articles, one or two a month which reference him as the author and again in the meta tags.

What am I missing?
