Consultancy Helps Clients Achieve Great Results with Easy to Implement Email Marketing and Social Media Marketing Campaigns

Orlando, FL -- (SBWire) -- 01/28/2014 --The Countess Group, a strategic marketing and communications consultancy, announced today that its VIP Partner Club membership now exceeds 800 businesses and non-profit organizations. The Club enables its members to receive expert assistance launching and optimizing their email marketing campaigns and social media marketing efforts.

“Marketing is something businesses and non-profits know they need to do, but so often they are focused on the day-to-day challenges of running their operations and find they need an extra hand to do it right. Study after study has shown that the return on investment (ROI) of email marketing is well over 40:1 when done correctly,” said Ken Countess, The Countess Group’s Managing Director, an accredited Constant Contact Platinum Solution Provider and Authorized Local Expert. “We provide the guidance organizations need to get great results on their campaigns. Attendees of our workshops and seminars love the extra hand-holding we offer when they become VIP Partners.”

The Countess Group began offering the service to help clients get the most out of their marketing efforts. Finding many companies just need a little extra guidance to dramatically boost the effectiveness of marketing campaigns, the company has helped many clients grow their revenue and exposure.

“We have a VIP Partner that saw a 5-fold increase in sales using email marketing in 2013,” Countess continued. “Becoming a member of our VIP Partner Club is even easier than joining a hotel or airline loyalty program – and it’s free. Participation in the program enables members to get high impact announcements, newsletters and social media campaigns out the door quickly, and then get back to focusing on what they love most – running their business or non-profit. A phone call or e-mail to our office (407-242-4200 or vip@thecountessgroup.com) can make it happen within minutes.”
