NEW: Blogging & Tweeting Special!

If you aren’t sure how to get targeted traffic to your blog and the thought of using Twitter makes your palms sweat, then this special is for you. Twitter, when used correctly, can help you get clients for your business, can raise your company’s visibility and can get hundreds of visitors to your website. You may think it’s just for kids but Twitter is a serious marketing tool for businesses in all sectors.

For a limited time, I’m offering a special Twitter package. Here’s what you get:

Sending Tweets:

  • At least 8 Tweets daily Monday through Friday.

Each Tweet is personally written with the purpose of building relationships and developing your company’s personality. (Some other professional Twitter services use ‘bots but that defeats the purpose of building relationships.)

  • Up to two self-serving links Tweeted each day.

In order to avoid being viewed as a spamming Twitter account, the majority of Tweets will be personal Tweets, questions to followers, retweets, and responses to the Tweets of others. Your account will have up to three links Tweeted that direct back to your website. Links will be sent out as bit.ly links so that we can track how many people click the link.

  • Tweets will most often be done in 2 groups—morning and late afternoon.

However, if I notice any trends I might shift the Tweeting to take advantage of those trends.

  • In order to attract new followers I will use Google Trends and trending topics on Twitter as the basis for the content of some Tweets. This will also help the Tweets to come up in Google searches, resulting in even more visibility for your business.

Getting Followers:

  • Each day, I will search for and follow at least 7 Twitter users who are in your target market.

This has to be done gradually so you don’t exceed Twitter’s maximums and get your follow capabilities locked.

  • On Fridays, I will do a Follow Friday Tweet with all the followers who we interacted with. These often get retweeted which attracts new followers to your account.

Weekly Reporting:

  • Each week (or month if you would prefer) a report will be provided to you with the results of our Twitter progress. This report will include:

-The number of new followers. -The website address of new followers so that you can work on any targeted marketing. -The number of click-throughs on the bit.ly links we send.

  • Every few months I will come up with an adjusted game plan (if necessary) to work on any aspect of our plan that is falling short of our expectations.

This contract is week-to-week, so you can purchase just one week’s worth of work if you just want temporary help building your follower list and learning how to utilize Twitter to your advantage.

1 week, Twitter only: $200

1 month, Twitter only: $720

1 week, Twitter and three 350 word blog posts: $380

1 month, Twitter and three 350 word blog posts: $1,360

Further discounts may be given when Twitter is included in a package.

Corporate or Other Blogging

Blogs are a great way to develop a personal relationship with clients and visitors you might not meet in person. Adding a blog to your website or updating an existing blog can help increase your website traffic and sales as you add value to your services through the resource your blog offers. Blogs also give you an easy way to address current news and events without changing your entire website.

  • Interviews with relevant experts can be conducted.
  • When ghost blogging, a complete interview is done so that I can write your thoughts more effectively.
  • I can create the topic if needed or you can provide one.

  • Finance and insurance content will include source information when necessary. Relevant tax code, oversight policy, agency, broker/ dealer and insurance company policies will be discussed in an easy-to-understand manner. Complex finance, insurance, tax and estate planning strategies and terminology will be broken down to create transparency, trust and converting content.
  • Non finance/ insurance-related content will include any relevant studies, instructions, details and a breakdown of complex theories and information. All study sources will be mentioned in the article.
  • SEO keyword research and natural placement of keywords when requested.
  • Up to 2 edits of the content- either at time of submission or in the future.
