We elevate Professional Services brands with Content Marketing strategies that drive ROI across the web.

The speed at which content marketing can take effect depends largely on your business. Generally 2-6 months in effective window to begin appreciating the improvements. Some of the factors involving how long our work takes to effect revenue are 1) how many readers do you currently have 2) what kind of content has been produced in the past and 3) how well known is your brand? The biggest challenge is that the people who most need content marketing, will likely take longer to get results. That is a big part of why we bake social amplification into our content. This gives us valuable feedback on the content we’re producing and ensures it gets in front of customers. An even more important factor is the actual strategy we end up taking. 

If you elect to have us help with sales focused material our work will largely depend on the length of your actual buying cycle and where potential customers currently are. If we take a strategy more based in growing your reputation and making customers and clients sales ready then our work will largely depend on where your site currently stands in the market and how search engines view it.

If you’ve been working with traditional vendors, big names, or anyone who’s been in the business for a long time, you may be surprised by how low our prices are. The fact is that we still have the heart of a young company. For the CMO, middle manager, business owner, or head of sales that knows you need more inbound leads, we understand you’re taking a gamble by not buying big name brands. 

We know we’re pricing our services 50-80% cheaper than you’d be getting at a traditional organization. We’re fine with it because we want massive growth and a happy customer base. Additionally we’d love to make sure that our services continue to be accessible to smaller companies long into the future. 

On the other side of the coin, we know for the average business that marketing may be the largest non-material and payroll expense you make. While we’re not the cheapest option out there, we believe our price point is the perfect entry point for anyone in the market to afford and still allow us to grow and foster the best talent across the world.

We know how harrowing it is to roll the dice when you need to win. Don’t worry, we live to win.

At the end of the day it all depends on your business and needs. Few companies are willing to guarantee results, but we are willing to give clear projections based on available data and execute against those guesses.

Early on we dive into understanding your particular market. This helps us understand what your customers want to see, and what they’re reading. Once we actually have content to produce we’ve already started to create relationships with these customers, and that then gives us an avenue to share and promote your content.

A blog post is not a blog post worth having unless it’s incredible. We have an internal checklist we’ve used thousands of times to get our customers millions of visits and social shares. Many companies out there will sell you blog posts, which are really just sub-par blurbs written by foreign writers. 500 words is not going to cut it in 2017. In fact you need closer to 1200-2000 to even have hopes of making a dent in rankings. Additionally our posts are engaging, feature great imagery, and are always better than everything else on the market. Better yet if you elect for our Professional package we’ll actually promote your content across the web and relevant communities, which will almost guarantee consistent traffic.

We take massive pride in our content marketing efforts. We dissect your market, read what’s been written before, and create content that your customers will actually enjoy reading.

Our overall content marketing process best outlines our work. But we can guarantee that Web Upon takes nothing off the table. We always roll our sleeves up and get dirty in the trenches. The biggest benefit of working with us is that it’s like hiring your own internal strategist, writer, editor, designer, and PR person, without the hassle of managing (and paying) all those people.

One of the best things about working with a company like ours is that we’re always willing to go the extra mile. While we have an editing phase in all our work, we’re always willing to keep retooling something until it’s perfect.

On the rare occasion content doesn’t impact your sites’ performance, we make sure cancellation is easy. We create three month contracts to start at a minimum, and after that it’s month to month. And believe me cancellation is as easy as it should be…(not like we’re a cable internet company or anything)

We primarily use Google Analytics to understand your site and our results. We basically use the previous months before we got started as a benchmark for progress. While every business has a degree of seasonality, we’re confident we can increase traffic and rankings for most businesses no matter what the season. We also look at secondary metrics like time on page and other engagement factors to monitor our overall success (or failure). For the most part the goal of the reports is to help you understand what we’re working on, going to work on, and give you a fair assessment of our work quality.

Absolutely, when we say the customer comes first we absolutely mean it. A big reason we started Web Upon is because we hated to see all the scammers and hucksters out there. We always do what we can to help build your business, and if you’re not happy with our results we have no hard feelings about parting ways.

A big part of our success is quality craftsmanship. We try to do as much writing as we can in-house or find people within the USA that understand your market. If your field is extremely technical we usually reach out to technical writers in your field who are versed in it.

This is probably the only place where we’re less than accommodating. While we offer a la carte social ad, SEO, and social media management packages, we’ve consistently had poor experiences with internal teams. The content just doesn’t meet our standards, and keeps us from achieving results. Which makes other efforts look bad. If we can help you on a content strategy or “renovate” a post, we’re willing to work with you. But very rarely are pieces worth promoting as they stand. (no offense) That said, if your topic is highly technical that’s actually a common problem we face. Working directly with experts is actually part of our process, so we can discuss the process further.

Once we get started we undertake a deep analysis of your company’s previous efforts, your customers, and the competition out there. Launching any content marketing strategy is dependent on balancing business goals, current market conditions, and an understanding of your customers. We integrate ourselves into your market and create a plan that will help you succeed.

Our first “official” chat gives us an opportunity to get to know you and your needs. This is your chance to tell us about your business challenges and what you want to see out of our work. We start to bring our thoughts to the table given what we’ve seen from the competition and tailor a plan to your business needs.

The marriage of our marketing understanding and your expertise is the creation of a clear strategy and timeline for growth. We’ll clearly discuss all our findings with you and use our data to finalize a plan that you can stand behind. We typically create 12- month content plans so you have your pick of topics and we can quickly pivot as new product areas get introduced.

The buck stops with us. We do what we say we’re going to do, and do what we can to keep you in the loop as we proceed. Better still, we’re always available by email or for a quick call. We bring in the best writers and designers for your industry to achieve a blend of content that will suit your needs. Once we publish, we carefully monitor your content to ensure that it’s a hit with your consumers.

You can expect the same gusto from us in month 15 that you got from us on day one. We’re firm believers in the customer is always right. If you don’t feel like we’re winning for you, then we’re not happy. You can expect monthly reporting from us, & a clear map of what we’ve done and where we’re going. Since we’re constantly iterating on the work we’re doing you can expect the work to just get better and better.
