Words Matter

Seminole County, FL – July 21, 2021 – Problem:  Great words make a difference.

On your website, in your emails, in ads, in social media posts … you get the idea.

Good copywriting is essential to a business.

But good copywriters are expensive.

They charge by the hour, which means that you have to pay them for all their time even if they don’t produce anything useful.

And if you’re like most entrepreneurs and small business owners, your marketing budget is tight.

You can’t afford to spend thousands of dollars on a copywriter who doesn’t deliver results.

Solution:  If you are tired of overpriced copywriting services that waste your time and money with unproductive meetings and ineffective work product, The Countess Group can help.

We’ll show you how you can consistently create amazing marketing copy.

And best of all, if you like what you see, you just pay a flat rate of $29/month for the basic package – and you get 10,000 bonus words free. The unlimited package is just $119/month, so you can create as much copy as you want, as often as you want.

Both packages include over 30 different templates you can customize any way you like – for Facebook ads, website copy, blogs, emails – just about anything you can think of.

There’s a 5-day free trial and a 7-day money back guarantee so there’s no risk.

5 Email Marketing Strategies for 2021

Seminole County, FL – June 18, 2021 – Many people think that email marketing is a thing of the past.

They are 100% wrong!

In fact, email marketing, which has a 42:1 ROI, continues to be one of the best ways to reach your target audience and can be used in combination with other channels.

Use these 5 email marketing strategies to keep your customers engaged and buying from you:

• Strategy #1:  stay focused on who you are speaking to – don’t try to be all things to all people
• Strategy #2:  be creative with the content – try to provide an “a-ha” moment rather than offer the same content in each email
• Strategy #3:  use images and graphics throughout your emails – they engage readers
• Strategy #4:  personalize messages by adding customer data/information – personalization (like adding first name, business name, etc.) makes the reader feel as if the email was being written especially for them – even though the personalization is happening due to a process similar to “mail merge” technology
• Strategy #5:  be responsive when customers have questions – when a customer takes the time to ask a question in reply to an email, this is a “hot lead” and should be responded to as soon as possible

Ken Countess, managing director of The Countess Group’s marketing division, said: “Even though it has been around for over 20 years, email marketing continues to lead the way when it comes to marketing return on investment. As Constant Contact’s Top Partner/Trainer, I can help you get better results from your campaigns.”

“If you’re using another service, Constant Contact is worth a new look,” Countess continued.  “The platform has been completely refreshed and is better than ever,” Countess continued. “We’ll train you how to use it when you open up a free account at http://www.CompletelyFreeTrial.com or by calling us at 407-242-4200.”

Jarvis to the Rescue

This tool will make you a genius

Seminole County, FL – June 9, 2021 – Did you ever wonder, “I can’t afford a copywriter. How can I write better marketing copy for my business?”

Using artificial intelligence (AI) software, it’s easier than ever.

Ken Countess, managing director of The Countess Group’s marketing division, asked: “What if I told you I used an AI named Jarvis to write my last email, my last LinkedIn post, and one of my recent Facebook posts? And that those pieces of content have been in over 10,000 feeds or inboxes this week alone?”

Yep, it’s true.

“All I did was tell Jarvis to write some posts for me using certain keywords,” Countess continued. “And what it created was pretty remarkable.”

“I’m not saying AI is going to replace copywriters,” he said. “But wow, this is something special. Jarvis can help you write blog articles, social media posts, sales letters, and even books.”

Through The Countess Group, you can try Jarvis completely free by using this special link:  https://conversion.ai?fpr=ken77

Facebook ads generate more visibility for new client

Business owner benefits from greater visibility at lower cost

Seminole County, Fla. — June 3, 2020 – Facebook is well known for its ability to reach new prospects for businesses. But like anything else, you have to know what you’re doing – otherwise it’s like flushing money down the toilet.

Ken Countess, managing director of The Countess Group, was recently contacted by an attendee of one of his recent webinars.  The business owner, who has been in business for 10 years and has a big store on Amazon, was looking to expand his reach using Facebook.

He launched a campaign on his own in April, and spent $50 to test out the campaign. With 64 clicks on his ad, that worked out to about 78 cents per click.

That’s when he contacted Ken.

He asked, “Can you help me get better results?”

Once they had a conversation to explore the prospect’s goals, Ken went to work and created several Facebook test ad campaigns for the business.  The first campaign generated 33 clicks for $9.78, or 30 cents per click.  The cost per click was less than half what the client was able to do on his own.

The most recent campaign generated 300 clicks at an average of 20 cents per click. The ad spend was just $60.10.  That’s nearly 5 times more clicks at one fourth the cost per click the client was able to achieve.

Plus, his ad generated over 10,000 impressions, meaning the number of times they showed up on someone’s screen. That’s less than one penny per impression – or great exposure at a very low cost.

While similarly great results cannot be guaranteed for all clients, Ken and his team have the expertise to help clients get more exposure to improve their marketing results.

“We’re delighted that our client is thrilled with the results,” said Countess. “We have other case studies demonstrating how we’ve helped other clients and a Facebook Secrets webinar on our website at http://www.TheCountessGroup.com/facebook-marketing – and they’re all free to view.”

“We’re happy to provide a free consultation for prospective clients to see if there’s a fit for us to help them,” Countess said.
