I concur, and would say that accountability is perhaps PPC's greatest strength, especially in the eyes of the client. Pitching an SEO campaign can be tricky given that there are simply no guarantees--what client wants to hear that when they're laying down 5 figures? Personally, I've always been a baseball nut, so I love pouring over PPC stats!

Also, the data provided by a PPC campaign can drive an SEO campaign, so in that sense, you can target both PPC marketing and SEO research, but only pay once!
