Frequently Asked Questions About: Christian Internet Marketingand The Creative Christian Copywriter
You may be asking yourself, “What is a copywriter?” The quick answer: “The best kept secret in both, the modern and post-modern business world.” But if you’d like a quick definition, a Direct-Response Copywriter is someone who can write a Sales Letter, Email, Mailer, etc., in such a way that increases the “Direct Response” Rate from those receiving the Email, Fundraising Mailer, etc.
In short, a Direct Response Copywriter will help you to Increase Sells, and can Drastically Increase Your Lead Generation. You can find statistical proof in the FAQ tabs below.
A few examples of Copywriting Services include, but are not limited to:
Email Marketing:
- Long or Short Copy Marketing Email
- Automated Email or Email (drip) Series
Website Landing Pages:
- Product and/or Lead Generating Landing Pages
- Long-Form and Short-Form Website Pages
- Content and SEO Content Landing Pages
Sales Letters/Mailers:
- Fundraising
- Non-Profit
- Product and Lead Generation Letters/Mailers
As a man of God, and follower of my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, I can say with all sincerity and truth:
“An actual Expert Direct Response Christian Copywriter… is the absolute best-kept secret in the Christian Internet Marketing arena today.”
Furthermore, I’d be doing a horrible disservice by not advising every business owner I come into contact with that: “If you don’t have someone who truly understands the process of generating leads through your website (whether by forms or phone calls), then don’t bother even having a website.”
Most every business owner and entrepreneur in the world today (whether Christian or secular) simply don’t know that they don’t know.
To prove my point, when you view my copywriting prices, your immediate thought is something like:
“I’d never pay someone $1,000 just to send out an email for my business…” And maybe at this point in time, there is no need for you to send out an email at all. Maybe you don’t even have a database to send an email to.
BUT… what if we could start generating tons of leads through your website? Then, what if we could set up an awesome email automation series that began generating approximately $2,000 of revenue every month for your business?
Here’s Your Proof
I began with a client in 2017. When I came onboard, he had:
- Been in Business 4 Years
- Averaged 38 Website Form Leads Per Month
Therefore, by making some changes on his website (using Web Page Optimization Architecture), and implementing an Email Marketing Series, within 60 days we jumped to:
- 71 Website Leads Per Month
The first 6 months, we averaged:
- 99.33 Website Leads Per Month
To help put that into perspective, without the adjustment, he would have received approximately 228 website leads during that 6-month period. With the content adjustments, we actually received 596 website leads. And, yes, that’s almost tripling the amount of website leads.
Then respectively, we achieved:
- 126.67 Website Leads per month the first 12 months (creating a $1,000,000 Gross Profit swing from -$400,000 to $600,000).
- 208.25 Website Leads per month the following 12 months (this even includes 5 months of the COVID-19 dilemma).
By the Grace of God, this success was possible only due to Expert Direct Response Copywriting Skills and the implementation therein.
This question actually comes from the first Q&A listed above: “Why would I want any of these Christian Copywriting services?”
And it’s actually a fair question. But before I answer, let me first ask you:
“If someone came to you and said, ‘Over the next 12 months I’m going to help you make $1 Million,’ then what would you feel is a fair wage for that someone?”
Now… make no mistake. This isn’t about the “Money.” We Christians understand that all of our plans are entirely subject to the true statement, “God Willing.” Therefore, there’s no need for us to bring up the “Love of money” aspect of morality. That’s not what this is about.
Nevertheless, the reason I ask you this question is to simply reveal the canvas as a completed masterpiece. Now, you can see the bigger picture, and better understand the fees when it comes to expert direct response copywriting.
Therefore, pragmatically speaking what would it be worth to you? OR better asked, “What would be “fair?”
- 1% ($10,000)
- 5% ($50,000)
- 10% ($100,000)
… or dare I say even 25% ($250,000)?
Well, I believe it best to answer the initial question like this:
In this scenario you have 2 parties:
- Business owner with a website or needing a website to maximize revenue and profits
- Expert Direct Response Christian Copywriter and Google’s #1 Ranked Christian Internet Marketing Company in the World.
If the business owner does “NOT” have a website, he/she should:
- Pay a fair wage for the website, then offer 10% of all sales generated through the website. This can be very advantageous to the business owner, because the copywriter/internet marketer truly gets paid for what he/she puts into it.
If the business owner already has a website, both parties can sit down together and:
- Determine what would be a fair commission-based pay plan
- Place the copywriter/internet marketer on a set monthly retainer of an amount to be agreed upon
Christian SEO refers to Search Engine Optimization (SEO).
Search Engine Optimization, as defined by Oxford Language, is the process of maximizing the number of visitors to a particular website by ensuring that the site appears high on the list of results returned by a search engine.
However, if I had to provide my own definition of SEO, I’d say:
Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is the process of Optimizing a website to ensure it ranks high on the list of results returned by a search engine, by properly using SEO-Best-Practice techniques.
In layman’s terms, I’d say that SEO is: “Trying to get your website to the top of Google” in order to drive more visitors to your website.
For example, if you were a Christian retail store who sold John 3:16 T-Shirts, you should want to rank at the top of Google every single time anyone in the world searched “john 3 16 t-shirts.” This would likely help you to sell many more t-shirts.
There are, however, many different optimization techniques that can be used in properly performing Search Engine Optimization.
Great Question! But also kinda difficult to answer within such a brief framework.
Nevertheless, you can optimize your website both on the frontend and backend. And it’s completely okay if you’re unfamiliar with that phraseology.
To be more specific, search engine optimization can include (but is not limited to) optimizing areas on your website such as:
- Page Titles (this includes pages, posts and products)
- Body Content
- Categories and Tags
- Navigational Menus
- SEO Titles
- SEO Meta
- Images
- Focus Keyphrase
- URL’s
And as I’ve stated, there are many other ways – some even more technical.
However, I can assure you that one of the best ways to optimize your website is by providing excellent content.
Awesome question! And thanks so much for asking…
This is truly a question I love answering, and am very passionate in the account that I give. For those seeking a pragmatic answer, I’d say, there are different types of SEO “packages.” Not only so, but one also has to factor in the size and type of the website.
Nevertheless, a few examples might consist of:
Silver SEO Package: $199 (starting price)
The Silver Package consists of performing SEO services in the areas of “SEO Titles” and “SEO Meta Descriptions.” Once again, please keep in mind this would depend on the number of Pages, Posts and Products you have on your website.
Bronze SEO Package: $499 (starting price)
The Bronze Package consists of everything in the Silver Package, but additionally includes “On-Page Titles” and “Tagging and/or Implementing Tagged Images.”
Gold SEO Package: $1,499 (starting price)
The Gold Package consists of both the Silver and Bronze Packages, but also includes “On-Page Content Optimization”
Platinum SEO Package: $2,499 (starting price)
The Platinum Package consists of the Silver, Bronze and Gold elements, and includes “The Works,” which is absolutely too much to list.
Having laid out the answer for you pragmatically, now please allow me to tell you the… well… TRUTH as to how I feel about it all.
In my expert, completely transparent opinion, unless it is someone whom is simply taking baby steps (due to a financial situation), I’d never suggest anyone to go with the Silver or Bonze SEO Packages.
Why?
Firstly, when it comes to your business and livelihood… why would you ever do anything halfway?
Secondly (and you’re going to have to take my word on this), I know something that you don’t. And unless there are special circumstances involving your request for either the Silver or Gold Package, I’m Man enough and honest enough to tell you the truth.
Whenever it’s humanly possible, don’t just do it alright, but do it All Right the first time around…
