Phoenix Marketing Associates to work direct with manufacturer to boost online presence and sales.

Phoenix, AZ— Phoenix Marketing Associates engaged to perform ongoing search engine optimization and online marketing campaigns for MoldOff, the world’s only eco-friendly mold removal product.

Recently featured on the Today Show, MoldOff is the only green, eco-friendly, pH neutral and biodegradable mold removal product which is completely safe to humans and pets yet strong enough to tackle the largest mold growth problems.

MoldOff removes most mildew stains without scrubbing and in many cases removes the stains with just one application. Unlike chlorine bleach, MoldOff penetrates the dirt and surface and eliminates all spores with proper application, which is also why it is an excellent preventive measure for mold as well as a cleaner.

“MoldOff is a great product whose time has come.  We’re excited to market MoldOff nationwide and markedly grow their brand,” said Jason W. Jantzen, President of Phoenix Marketing Associates, LLC.

New social media marketing initiatives prove their worth by dramatically increasing Facebook “likes” while inducing restaurant visits.

Phoenix, AZ—September 20, 2011—Phoenix Marketing Associates, LLC has recently introduced a unique social media strategy to their growing base of restaurant and hospitality clients which has produced increases of up to 300% in the number of Facebook page likes.

As more and more restaurants are seeing the true value of a Facebook “like”– as evidenced by the billions of dollars that Fortune 500 companies like McDonalds, Olive Garden and Applebees routinely spend, there is a core question which repeatedly comes up:  How do we increase our page likes?

The answer and focus of Phoenix Marketing’s strategy, entitled “like only campaigns” which empowers restaurants with even the most modest budgets is a three step process:

  1. The offer
  2. The conversion
  3. Fulfillment

Phoenix Marketing first works with their clients to develop an offer which is strong enough to induce visitors to like their page.  In most cases, the value is under $10.00 which is a small price to pay for the benefits derived.  Second and utilizing Facebook’s programming capabilities, Phoenix Marketing custom codes a “welcome page” which details the offer and induces the “like.”  Upon clicking the “like” button, the custom coded welcome page transforms into a transition page which thanks the guest for liking the page and presents a coupon which can be printed out for fulfillment in the restaurant.

This process accomplishes two goals:  1.The restaurant secures a “like,” and 2. It gives the user a reason to visit the restaurant.

The key to the success of this campaign is dependent on driving targeted traffic to the new Facebook welcome page.  This can be accomplished through a paid ad campaign, via Twitter, or through a well messaged and executed email marketing campaign which has produced the best results.  Phoenix Marketing’s client, Yogurtology, with three locations in Phoenix was the benefactor of this strategy and increased page likes from 330 to over 1,100 targeted “likes” in only a few months.  Phoenix Marketing works with several Phoenix based clients as well as restaurants in five different states.

“We’ve gotten some outstanding results from our “like only” campaigns across the board and are equally excited about the new social media processes we currently have under development,” explained Jason Jantzen, President of Phoenix Marketing Associates.
