Online Writing & Marketing - Adult Webmaster Forums News Resources & Tips

PearlyWrites · 07-30-2009, 09:23 AM

Per the request from Tigger and Brent, I am "spamming" this thread with some of our pricing.

We are PearlyWrites, LLC, an Online Marketing Company and specialize in writing for the Web for Adult and Mainstream businesses. We create customized online marketing packages which we suggest for 3 months up to as long as you like. We also start with a higher, more intense package for the first 3 months and then re-evaluate and move you down to a less expensive / maintenance type package. We approach online marketing from the organic SEO side which means we set up a marketing plan with your help of course, and ask your budget and then work out a plan of action with you. Online marketing is something you need to continue, it's not a one shot deal so once you begin ranking naturally in the search engines, if you stop marketing, your ranking will soon also disappear from the higher ranking spot.

We are here to help and want you to be comfortable with us and your marketing budget.

A few sample packages and service pricing which we have created for clients are below for your information. Again, we customize plans and this is to only give you an idea. We are a team of copywriters, editors and online marketers all working together to help you.

All packages include the first 5 items
1. Monthly Rank Monitoring
2. Monthly Reporting & Maintenance
3. Web Analytics Setup & Reporting

We recently began offering businesses monthly coaching for those who have a lower budget. We create a customized plan with a checklist, set-up weekly phone calls, emails, IM or Skype calls and can range from 5-15 hours per month for 1 on 1 coaching. We found this solution to work well so the business owner who wants to do their own marketing and learn about online marketing can while having a resource to go to. More info on the coaching program will be on our Adult blog within the next week. Ralph and I are tightening up the program.

Thanks Brent and Tigger!

thanks for posting Lisa - that's one heck of a service you offer their

I would presume this service is taken up primarily by site owners / stores rather than affiliate marketeers?

PearlyWrites · 07-30-2009, 02:15 PM

We have affiliate marketers as clients and since we can't do too much on their affiliate site we suggestt hey put up a blog and any blog postings we do will link back to their affiliate site. So if they are selling sex toys, we will write product reviews and link back directly to that product on their site. We can also write PR's and articles to do the same.

That's great information Lisa!

PearlyWrites · 07-31-2009, 10:22 AM

Thanks Brent. It is hard to throw out pricing till I speak to the client so the above packages are sample packing we have created for specific clients, budgets and needs.

I mean we also have a few clients who just need a few blog postings a month and their blog maintained and the pricing is obviously a lot lower for this but I appreciate you letting me post some info about our services.

giving ball park figures is a good idea as at least that way it will stop the time wasters that think you will do this for $5

We did this recently for a client on his site ( mainstream) as he was getting loads of time waster enquires, since putting up price indicators the volumes of enquires have dropped but the ones he does get now understand the value of his product

I use to have pricing on our sites and the time wasters still came so I took it off years ago. Figure our consulting price begins at $50 per hour and since we write, edit and maintain the campaigns, I would think a potential cilent would figure this cost into their budget but again, I have been proven wrong and do get the $5 inquries.

I work on the principle that most surfers are thick twats and just look at pretty photos then hit the contact button and hope by bashing loads of keys they get a message across
