2. Search Engine Optimization (SEO)

Search engine optimization is probably one of the more important ways in which you can market your website and business. The yellow pages is dead and more than 80% of people will do their research on search engines such as Google and Yahoo rather than the yellow pages.

The majority of searches performed each day on Google is for local products and services. For instance.. People will type into Google something like "dentist + city name" , "Indian food + zip code" , auto mechanic + city" and so forth. It is easy to see that if your business is not on the search engines today then you are losing out on a big chunk of new business.

Here at Sloconsultants.com we specialize in SEO and we also do it at a price any one can afford. The process works like this.
We will do keyword research and determine which keywords has high search volume each month with low competition and we will then optimize your website for those keywords. This is called on page optimization and our fee is $100 per page.

The second part of SEO is called off page optimization and this is where we will have to build back links to your site among other things to make sure the search engines sees your site as an authority site and as a result your site will get higher rankings.

In order to keep your business on top of the search results off page optimization needs to be done on a continuous basis and our fees starts at $200.00 per month depending on how many pages you have and also how strong your competition is. I will personally go over this with you and we can come up with a plan of action together.

 

3. Email Marketing ($500 Setup + $197 per month)

Email marketing is probably the best and most cost effective marketing medium for most businesses. Most businesses focus only on aquiring new customers which is the hardest and most expensive way to grow a business. They overlook the fact that they can get their current customer base to buy from them more often and make a huge impact on their bottom line. For instance, if you can get the customers that buy from you once a month to buy twice a month and the ones that buys once a week to buy twice a week you can essentially double your business.

Here's an example of how we can implement email marketing in your business. Each business is different and requires a unique approach and that's why I offer a free consultation which you can book here. Ok, let's get back to the example. Let's say you have a restaurant or a nursery. We can give away something for free like a dessert in the resaurant's case or a free report with some gardening tips in the nursery's case. We give away this free gift in exchange for contact details which will then go on a database.

Once we have these people on the database we can start building a relationship with them and also carefully market to them for years to come. Let me ask you this question. Let's use the resaurant example again. If you have a special runing on Friday night where you will be giving away a Ribeye steak for 50% off or whatever. How do you let people know about this special?

Do you spend $300 or $400 on a newspaper ad or radio ad? What if you can send one email with a carefully crafted message to your entire customer base telling them about your special on Friday?
I can tell you from experience that you'll be amazed at how effective this method is.

You can use these emails to build relationships with your customers, educate them about your business and products, recommend products from time to time and a whole lot more. You can even start doing joint ventures with other business owners with email lists.

To see this in action just look at your own or your partner's email inbox. We'll take my wife as an example on this one. She always knows when Macy's has a sale and what is on sale, she also always knows everythng about shoes and when certain shoes comes on sale. How does she know this?

Most of the big corporation are making a killing with email marketing. Macy's and Madden shoes sends promotional emails about their specials etc on a weekly basis. My wife and I'm sure thousands of other woman love getting these emails and you know Macy's is making an absolute killing with this method.

With email marketing we can track everything. You will know exactly how much money you are making from our email marketing efforts and I guarantee it'll be way more than the measly $200 a month we charge to run this for you.

Imagine what will happen if you build a list of 2000 or even
10 000 over the next few years and then send them a promotional email? Do you think you'll make more than $200?

There is alot more to it and I don't have the space on this web page to explain it all so give me a call or send me an email and let's discuss how we can implement email marketing in your business.

 

3. Video Marketing ($300)

Video Marketing is really hot right now because more and more people prefer to watch video than reading a boring article or web page. Video sharing sites like Youtube, Yahoo Video and Viddler receives millions of visitors each day and people ae not only going there to look for funny videos. They are starting to look for videos about their community and more specificaly they are looking for what your business has to offer. Think of video marketing as a television commercial that gets distributed all over the internet.

The trick here is to keep the videos short and to the point. People have very short attention spans on the internet and videos must not be longer than 2 minutes. 30 Seconds to 1 minute is perfect.

Google owns Youtube and therefore videos rank very high on the search engines. We can make a video commercial of your business either with you talking yourself or we can just use images of your business and some music to create a video. I will then upload and distribute your video to all the video sharing sites on the internet. Your video will also be search engine optimized.

If for example someone searches on Google for a Nursery in San Luis Obispo then your video has a very good chance of showing up in the search results. Do you think people will click on your video or on some boring web page?

I will make a short video about your business and distribute it all over the internet plus optimize it for the search engines for $300.00. After that we can do 2 videos a month for $200.00 per month. Each video will target a different keyword phrase. This way we will literally dominate your niche over time.

 

4. Pay Per Click (PPC)

Pay per click is where you place an ad on the search engines and every time a user clicks on your ad you pay a fee. The fee you pay is determined by how competitive your niche is. For example, if you are selling muffins you might pay between 7 and 15 cents per click but if you are in the mortgage or weight loss niche you can easily pay $5 per click.

Unlike all the other techniques with PPC you can see results immediately. It does take constant work and some time to really dial in your campaign to where you will show a healthy profit.
Pricing this service is hard because it all depends on how many products you sell and how competitive your niche is.

The beauty of PPC is that you can target your ads to only show when people from your town or state searches the internet for your product or service. If you sell nationally or internationally your campaign can be set to show ads to people in all countries and territories.

Contact me for a free consultation and let's dtermine if PPC is a good fit for your business.

 

5. Article Marketing ($20 each.)

Article marketingworks almost the same way as video marketing does. It is a very effective marketing tool. Here's an example of how article marketing can be used in a business. I am going to use a Nursery again. Let's say you sell quite a bit of a certain type of fertilizer because it is really effective to help tomatoes grow in your area.

My team of experienced writers will then write an article about growing tomatoes in this area and also mention that this certain type of fertilizer is proven to increase the chances of successfully growing tomatoes in this area. Then at the end of the article we will end it with something like this "For more information about this type of fertilizer and where to get it at the best price click here"

The user will then be pre sold on the fertilizer and click through to your website. By doing it this way we've accomplished 2 things.

1. You established yourself and your business as the expert in your niche because you have all these articles published all over the internet.

2. You pre sold the prospect on the fertilizer and when he or she clicks on to your website chances are good that he or she will end up buying the fertilizer.

Each article will be written by a professional writer and will also be optimized for the search engines. One article a week works best and what's great about articles just like videos is that it will bring you traffic to your website for years to come for work done only once.

 

6. Online Press Release ($400.00)

 In the offline world you can submit press releases to the different media outlets whenever you have something going on in your business that is media worthy. The same thing can be done online and if done properly can result in massive traffic to your website. My team will write a professional press release on a topic of your choice. We will then distribute your press release to all the major online media outlets. We also guarantee page one ranking on Google news.

Press releases has the potential to go viral real quick and this is good for your business. Google also loves anything that is news worthy and your press release can show up on the serach engines for many different search terms and bring you traffic for years to come.

Our fee is $400.00 per press release.

 

7. Facebook ($200)

Facebook is huge. I am sure you already know that. Facebook can also be a very effective marketing medium if you know how to use it effectively. Facebook is a social network and it is important to remember that. You don't want to go on there and just start shoving your business or product down everybody's throats. This won't make you any sales and if anything it can damage your business.

We will set your business up with it's own custom Facebook fan page and we will either show you how to market on Facebook yourself or we can do it for you. The potential here is big.

We charge $200 to set you up with a custom Facebook  fan page and if you want us to do the marketing for you it will cost $150.00 per month.

 

8. Twitter

I'm sure you've heard the buzz around twitter. Just like Facebook it is a social community and should be treated as such. Some types of businesses do better on twitter than others but overall twitter can be a very effective marketing medium for your business. If you have for example 3000 followers and you tweet a promotion you are running this weekend you are sure to make some sales from the twitter community.

We will set you up with a custom designed twitter account with everything you'll need for $150.00 and if you want us to market your business on twitter for you it will cost an extra $100 per month.

 

Conclusion

The above marketing techniques are all very effective, and most regular brick and mortar businesses does not take advantage of any of these techniques. The playing field wide is wide open right now for smart business owners who realizes that they need to act right now because there is not that much competition on a local level. This may not be the case for much longer as more and more businesses move towards the internet. If you act now and get your business on the internet you will be well established online, and other businesses won't be able to easily take your market share.

Not all of these techniques will work well with all business types. That's why I offer a free "no strings attached" consultation where we can discuss your specific business needs and create a marketing system that will suit your business best.

I also offer discounts if you want to order more than one marketing package. Contact me for more details.
