Read what folks have to say about Stacy and the practical info she provides…

Your presentation on How to Choose the Best Marketing Tactics for Your Business was excellent. Your marketing advice was right on target and practical, and I agreed with all of your advice (which isn’t always the case with our speakers). If you ever want a job as a small business counselor, just let me know. Cindy Butler - Seattle Community Capitol Development

I have to tell you that your recent workshop was one of the best we’ve had. You have a way of simplifying and delivering complex information that made what is often a dry, confusing topic interesting and easy to understand. On top of that, your presentation was both interactive and entertaining. Judging from the evaluations, everyone really got a lot out of it. We are so looking forward to having you back to speak to local business owners again in the fall. It is very likely to have repeat participants.Rebecca Villareal – North Seattle Community Capital Development

Stacy, what a fabulous communicator you are—clear, concise and to the point! This is the BEST Web sales class I’ve ever experienced. You presented Website sales in a natural progression, answering my questions in the order of priority. You filled in so many blanks in my mind about practical ways to make my Website my #1 salesperson. I would have saved a few thousand dollars if I had heard this information before hiring my last two Web designers. EVERY business person who has a Website MUST listen to you FIRST!Dawn Jones - Successful Booking

I really enjoyed your energy and sense of humor. It was fun to hear your perspective and it made me reflect on current challenges and commit to taking action is a couple of places that have been bugging me.Cynthia Clay - NetSpeed Leadership

“Stacy, your presentation at our recent WNET breakfast was extremely helpful and, best of all, enjoyable. I especially enjoyed your conversational style and the way you broke down the content and made it easy to understand.” Marnie Tyson - Seattle Community Capitol Development

“Stacy, your Marketing Tune-Up presentation was great! Learning how critical both consistency and follow-up are for getting your name and focus out there was very helpful. I finally feel like there is a light at the end of the tunnel as long as I take small steps to get my marketing done.” Kim Scott – Starridge Cleaning

“Your Marketing Tune-Up presentation was very helpful for me. I feel like I now have a good, overall picture of the terrain of marketing. I especially enjoyed having the written materials along with your verbal explanation to back it up. My only complaint was two hours wasn’t enough!” Elisha Rain –Elisha Rain Photography

“Stacy, I’ve really enjoyed attending your recent presentations. I just LOVE your upbeat energy, and you are clearly very knowledgeable about small business marketing. I’ve learned a lot from each of your workshops. Plus your confident delivery and sense of fun make hearing you speak a pleasure. I only wish there was some way to do a mind-meld and grab all the information in your brain for myself.” Vivian Valencia – Verity Credit Union

“The dirtiest word for business in the dictionary is FAILURE. For a good portion of us entrepreneurs, we become quite intimate with this word and feel the real pain of loss at least once, if not more. Trust me; I know what I am talking about with a two time brush with the word. But now I know the third time I am leaving it behind and moving in the right direction; all because of the smartest investments I made: Buying and completing Stacy’s e-workbook “Putting Your Business on the Road to Success”, and then strategically working with her on the marketing plan I created in a half-day consultation. I now know the wrong choices I have made in the past. I am using that knowledge to implement what needs to be done today to bring success to my company. If you don’t have a formal marketing plan that is in writing and you are using everyday to monitor your progress, what are you waiting for? Hire Stacy Karacostas now!” Tina Zimmer – Cavalcade

“Following several disappointing experiences with a variety of marketing/copywriting consultants I’d tried, I quickly discovered that as a young entrepreneur, one of the most important factors in my business’ ability to thrive was having the right consultant by my side. Soon after working with Stacy, I’d realized I had, at long last, found a professional that was a perfect fit. Stacy makes my job soooooo much easier. And, phewwww, if that isn’t the name of the game as an entrepreneur I don’t know what is!

She is not only dedicated, extremely knowledgeable, fast and thorough but her marketing and copy writing acumen is the best I’ve ever seen. To boot, she’s a sheer pleasure to work with. Better yet, she helps me to enact quality decisions and simple structures.

I hope I am blessed to work with Stacy for a very long time. I consider her one of my company’s strongest allies and frankly, utilize her and her work as a bench mark from which to select other consultants I hire. I quite think she’s an ‘Entrepreneur’s Dream’ ”. Suzie Goldsher - Founder and CEO, Best Life Services, Inc.

“The Secret to Using Marketing to Grow Your Small Business—Without Wasting Tons of Time and Money (or Pulling Your Hair Out) in the Process”

Dear Time-Strapped Entrepreneur,

Do you ever wish there was a magic-potion that would make your business grow overnight like Jack’s proverbial beanstalk?

Of course you do. After all, growing your business and getting customers in the door is the key to success.

Well, unfortunately, there are no magic potions or silver bullets for growing your business (no matter what any of the so-called “gurus” are promising). But there are a few simple things you can do right now to make all your marketing efforts more effective. And best of all, they won’t cost you a fortune.

Want to learn how to get the most from all your marketing efforts—whether it’s your Website, brochure, ad or email newsletter?

Then join me, Stacy Karacostas, and my teleseminar host, PR Diva Nancy Juetten, on Tuesday, October 16th at 5: 00pm PST for this info-packed 1-hour teleseminar.
Stacy Karacostas
Nancy Juetten

Nancy is going to interview me and hold my feet to fire until I give up a few of my powerful marketing secrets. And I’ll be sharing plenty of practical, down-to-earth tips for making the most of your marketing efforts including:

  • How to use marketing as your salesperson, so you don’t have to do the sales job yourself (if you hate sales or selling, you don’t want to miss this!).
  • Three things every piece of marketing must do to get people to pick up the phone, walk in the door, or pull out their credit card and hand it to you!
  • How to make sure you get amazing results from your marketing—without breaking your budget.
  • Four of the most common marketing mistakes that are guaranteed to cost you money—and sales.
  • The #1 thing every entrepreneur MUST do if they really want their marketing to work.
  • The answers to YOUR most pressing marketing questions!

I’m also doing live Q & A, so I’m limiting the number of people allowed on the call to give everyone a chance to chime in. Reserve your space now by filling out the box below.

Name
Email

Rest assured, I never share your name with anyone.

*You'll also get my free, weekly e-newsletter-Bright Ideas-packed with tips and ideas for growing your business, so you can sample the kind of down-to-earth info I offer before the call.

Once you sign up, you’ll have the chance to send us your most critical marketing questions. Then I’ll answer as many as possible during the call. Plus, I’ll also take your questions live at the end of the call.

What’s the catch??? Why are you offering this valuable info for free?

These days, my schedule is booked solid weeks in advance. Which means I can only take on so many clients and speaking engagements (all that travel time is a killer!). The result is that I don’t do very many no-cost workshops anymore.

But my passion is helping small business owners succeed. And I know this information will get you on the right path. So this teleseminar is my way of reaching out to many entrepreneurs at one time—which is good for both of us.

Don’t worry; this is not a 1-hour pitch-fest for my latest product. Though I will let you know about other resources I have available in case you want more info on the subject (who am I to stop you from learning more?!?).

What it boils down to, is this is your chance to get advice from a proven small business marketing expert “Fo’ Free”, as we say in the South (I was raised in Georgia, ya’ll). And if you’re interested, you can learn about some other, low-cost options for taking your marketing to the next level.

But, because I’m doing live Q & A, I’m limiting the size of the call. So snooze and you lose.

Getting on the call won’t cost you a dime. Go ahead and sign up right here right now.

Email

Once you do, you will swiftly be taken to a Web page with all the call-in details. Then, in the next week or two, I’ll send you an email that gives you a chance to send in your burning marketing question so I can answer it on the call.
