Please describe your company and your position there.

New and upcoming Christian based retail Company, Visions of Grace HS/TUJ. I am CEO of this amazing enterprise, Lydia Brooks.

For what projects/services did your company hire Content Development Pros?

I was in need of an ebook cover, plus hardback sold on Amazon assuring specifications protocol, high-definition, professionally designed, and replaced. New Audio, needing updated Producer and Narriator information displayed on ebook cover; updated Author Bio, short and long version; Company Logo uniquely created and designed to my specifications; Mission/Thank You Statement cards, portraying my Company's' Logo, and mission intention promises, purchase appreciation, and Charity ventures.

What were your goals for this project?

My goals were to have these projects completed with the Professional expertise needed to lift my Brand to a higher status, within a short period of time.

How did you select Content Development Pros?

I had no prior knowledge of Content Development Pro. Never heard of them in my life...and I'm 67 yrs. However, during my prayer to help me locate a company, their site appeared within my PC glitch. I took that as a sign to continue with this Company, and I am so glad I did. I don't need to say how desperate I was to get these project tasks completed.

Describe the project in detail.

As prior stated, My list of jobs completed by Content Development Pros are; 2 book covers, (ebook and hardback), Amazon specifications, digital high definition, and upload protocol; unique company logo, high definition; professional author bio, long and short version; mission/thank you statement cards.

What was the team composition?

From the time I ordered my project request, throughout the process, my assigned Project Manager, Alex, made himself available to my needs and wishes. Always ready with invaluable support and motivations. He, Scott, and Chris, continually there with support and assurance of my project completion. Abigaile, and the design team, we're all eager to complete my projects, tho I felt like I had bombarded them with too much. But they all diligently, one by one, completed them all using tremendous skill and dedication.

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

I admit I didn't believe that so many projects could be completed in such a short length of time. However, after I was able to view the final version, book covers, completed first, and witnessed the tremendous skill and dedicated effort into such an amazing outcome, I had no doubt, this is my 'go-to' Company through my professional endeavors.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

First of all, I am my team, and from my team to theirs, the workflow was study and consistent, as Alex's communication skills and friendly decor, kept me abreast and connected with the design team feedback, as well as my feedback to the design team. At no point, was there a project left behind where I didn't know the status.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

This Company runs like a well-lubricated oil rig system...each member has a proper and dedicated task to fulfill, designed for one single purpose, all on one accord...to get the job done...the bottom line...Client Satisfaction

Are there any areas for improvement?

There's always room for improvement when there are two or more synchronizing skills to project completions. However, constructive communication and both parties' wisdom to listen, will correct any areas needing improvement. However, there are no areas in need of improvement that I can see, at this point.

What challenge were you trying to address with Content Development Pros?

What is the team composition?

I primarily work with a project manager.

How did you come to work with Content Development Pros?

Their team was running a chat on Google. I made a note, and they immediately got back to me. After chatting, I signed up with them right away because they knew exactly what I had in mind. Not a lot of businesses provide this package of work.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve spent between $6,000–$7,000 so far.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working with Content Development Pros in June 2017, and the services are ongoing.

My business has grown since hiring Content Development Pros. Their SEO work helped my business show up on the first pages of Google. People can find my services much easier. As our engagement continues, I hope their services stay quality and affordable, no matter how busy their team gets.

How did Content Development Pros perform from a project management standpoint?

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the director of operations for a couple of clinics: a chronic pain center and a medical spa.

What challenge were you trying to address with Content Development Pros?

When we started our advertising, a lot of our marketing was paper-based. As the internet became more and more important tool for potential clients to search for our services, we decided to diversify our marketing.

What was the scope of their involvement?

They develop content for our websites and manage our SEO. They’ve also designed websites for us, but the most important part of their involvement was to improve our Google rankings through content creation. They’ve retooled our social media accounts on all the major platforms, and the bulk of their work includes posts, articles, infographics, and some video content for our YouTube feed. Everything they do makes us look more professional.

Each month, we go over the content plan. They let us know what they have in mind, and I approve the articles, blogs, and other pieces they intend to produce. An average month usually includes about four blog posts, four articles, and a video. I get biweekly reports and updates of our search rankings, which I like.

What is the team composition?

We have a great account manager. He acts as our primary point of contact.

How did you come to work with Content Development Pros?

I was looking for someone who could write articles and create other content. I liked their style and their thoroughness. They created a good end product in our first interaction together, so I asked them to work on my SEO.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve spent over $20,000 to date.

What is the status of this engagement?

I started working with them in the beginning of 2017 and the work is ongoing.

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

The SEO component is really helpful. Before we started with them, our rankings barely put us on page 30. Now, 60–70% of our services appear on the first page of several searches. That new ranking results in a lot of conversions.

How did Content Development Pros perform from a project management standpoint?

They perform very well, and they’ve always managed my account effectively. I’ve dealt with other SEO companies, and it’s hard to find one as good as they are. About 95% of our communication is through email.

What did you find most impressive about them?

They’re very punctual, the content they create is very professional, and their writing is clear. I’m very busy, so it’s helpful to have someone working on our marketing quickly and responsively. If we ever have a problem, they either write back to us or have the issue fixed within 24 hours.

Are there any areas they could improve?

It would be great if they could monitor our site a little more vigorously. We occasionally catch mistakes—not that they were responsible for, but just things that are outdated or not working properly. More proactivity in that regard is the only thing I can think of they might improve.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

We have a great account manager, and he really makes the relationship what it is. He responds immediately and is always available. Make sure you are happy with the resources they give you and get everything written out. Whatever package you chose, it’s wise to have your expectations in writing.

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the owner of Rabercom Enterprises. We host a site called Electronic Urban Report (EURweb.com), which focuses on urban life and black entertainment and cultural news.

What challenge were you trying to address with Content Development Pros?

I wanted to expand the non-entertainment offerings on our site and needed some additional hands to create it.

What was the scope of their involvement?

We discussed how to include relevant keywords in the articles for SEO purposes and I provided length guidelines that followed Google’s recommendations for news content. I also wanted to make sure they included video elements so that we could leverage the power of linking to YouTube and add depth to our written content.

What is the team composition?

I’m not sure how many people work on our account because I only touch base with an account manager occasionally.

How did you come to work with Content Development Pros?

They contacted me via email with a pitch. I liked the quality of their work and how affordable they were.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve spent between $2,000–$3,000 so far.

What is the status of this engagement?

I hired them in December 2017 and the partnership is ongoing.

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

Their content blends in well enough that their stories get about the same number of page views as the ones we produce in-house.

How did Content Development Pros perform from a project management standpoint?

We keep in touch via email. I haven’t needed to call or have a long conversation since the very beginning of our partnership. They get the job done and deliver everything on time, although we’re not always on the same page about the types of stories I need.

What did you find most impressive about them?

They’re very responsive. They collaborate well and do what I ask them to do. If there’s ever a problem, they let me know why something isn’t feasible. I’m very happy with them.

Are there any areas they could improve?

Not that I can think of. They’re giving me what I want.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Be clear with your directions so they’ll give you what you need.

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the owner of Everest Legal Marketing, and collaborate closely with our internal and external content team.

For what projects/services did your company hire Content Development Pros?

We were looking for content at a fair price for numerous projects that help our content marketing strategies across our digital footprint.

What were your goals for this project?

We were specifically seeking content that we knew we had to modify and improve with supplemental information and citations. We knew that whoever we used for this type of content, the content needed to be good but didn't really need to be excellent because we were going to go back through and edit it. Additionally we needed the content to come in regularly, timely and be consistent in quality.

How did you select this vendor?

As we looked for a vendor, most wanted to charge us exorbitant fees but didn't really understand that we didn't want to pay top tier prices for content that was going to be immediately edited. We came across Content Development Pros and thought that their rates were very reasonable.

We decided to try them out with a small order, and to our delight the content was excellent for the rate they charged. Since then we have submitted multiple project orders and have been very satisfied with the quality of the content for this purpose.

Describe the scope of their work in detail.

Content Development Pros has an easy to use submission form where we can easily upload the requirements of a project in detail. Their customer service department then confirms the order and production begins. On larger orders, (20+ pages), the content can take up to 2-3 weeks to complete, but pages trickle in as they are completed. If there are any errors or problems we can email back and they will make revisions as needed. For our purposes, we typically haven't needed to use this option.

What was the team composition?

My content editors & staff provided requirements, submitted the order and gave feedback as needed. Our most recent interactions with Sophia Monroe and Brandon Marx were excellent.

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

We've received numerous orders from Content Development Pros and they have been reliable and consistent.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Content Development Pros communicated proactively and responded to inquiries through Email and Live Chat quickly.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

I am very impressed that they can deliver good quality content, very quickly at a very affordable rate.

Are there any areas for improvement?

My only suggestion for improvement is to try to improve the conversational English for the US market. Sometimes content arrives using phrases and words that are not US native English.

Please describe your company and your position there.

My company is Bold Internet and I'm the owner/Director.

For what projects/services did your company hire Content Development Pros?

I needed help with developing some unique content for a website in the dental health sector knowing that I didn't have the necessary skill or time to produce such articles. I was recommended to try Content Development Pros and very pleased about it. Their communication is great, turnaround on content in line with expectations and the quality of the articles really good.

What were your goals for this project?

To get 20 or so unique articles in the dental space.

How did you select this vendor?

Via a referral from someone in the industry who I respect.

Describe the scope of their work in detail.

I gave a loose description in the form of a spreadsheet with some article title suggestions but that was it! The research and writing were all down to them! I had to get a couple of articles reworked which they did promptly without hesitation or argument.

What was the team composition?

Sophia Monroe was my account manager and handled most of the direct comms and there were a couple of writers involved in producing the actual content.

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

It's too early to talk about success in terms of impact on the website but I am very happy with the quality of the work produced.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Excellent! Emails plus a dashboard would let me know when articles are ready to be reviewed and I could either approve or submit a review/edit request. Very easy.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

'Dental care' is not the easiest topic to write about but they did just that. They found ways to create imaginative, well-researched and unique content.

Are there any areas for improvement?

I think the dashboard and ease of adding a project with individual article ideas could be improved. And one stage one of the articles didn't quite work for me and I felt a jolt of surprise as the first few had been excellent but it was resolved without a fuss.

Please describe your company and your position there.

My company operates in the e-commerce space, marketing goods and services for retail companies in North America. I am the CEO and as such it is my responsibility to manage the company's activities.

What were your goals for this project?

1. Establish open communication channels via email, telephone, chat.

2. Receive quality work each week.

3. Grow the size of my business utilizing the content that is produced for me.

How did you select this vendor?

I searched for marketing vendors and found review sites for best in class firms. I narrowed the field down to compare services with respect to a cost based analysis to determine that I needed a well recommended company which which I can scale up my business.

Describe the scope of their work in detail.

After presenting my blog's project manager with an initial direction and a copious quantity of topic ideas, production on the blog articles began and continues at the rate of 1000 words per post and one post per week.

Content Development Pros is responsible for the ongoing production of the blog. My company website is also in production. The web development team has made this process easy with a diagrammatic description of the project. Clear descriptions and requests for decisions at each step.

What was the team composition?

My account manager organized my purchase requests and helped me get in contact through email, telephone, and chat with the project manager who guide the production of content for me on a weekly basis.

Also an very important, is the monthly content plan which is my direct connection to the direction that the blog will proceed in each month.

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

This project is not on the internet at this time, as it is in progress.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

The project management work by my account manager Bruce, and project manager, Abigail has managed my expectations very well and exceeded in every metric. The utilization of all three communication methods, email, telephone, and chat provides the right mix of communication to keep the projects moving. We have active feedback channels in place and they are very helpful to me.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

I am continually impressed by the content itself and the strategic planning that goes in the production of a long term blog campaign. The work has a guarantee always to be written with quality in study and in practice.

Are there any areas for improvement?
