Best Marketing Resources | Essential Website Resources

Nick Jervis Explains His Best Blog Resources
Nick Jervis
Not all blogs are created equal. Whilst great content is vital for a blog, there are also essential blogging resources you need to ensure that you make the most of your earning opportunities. In this best blog resources article I explain my most important resources and why I rate them so highly.

I am Nick Jervis and I have been blogging since 2003. I have tried and tested a ridiculous amount of software and resources to make my business run as smoothly as possible and on this page I share them with you.

Make Ebooks / Lead Magnets In Minutes With This Amazing Software

This software allows you to create professionally designed ebooks, kindle books, 3d book covers, transcribe videos and all sort of other marvellous things when it comes to your ‘Items of Value’.

In around 15 minutes you can create a new ebook from the content inside a Word document.

It starts from only $27 and has very quickly become my favourite new piece of software.

As with any product, I only recommend it if I love it, it is genuinely useful to my business and the affiliate link I share with you gets you the best available price. This link does just that.

Improving Your Website Page Loading Speed

Page loading speed is a vital part of Google deciding to send more people to your website.

It is a factor in deciding how close to the top of the search results your website is presented.

WP Rocket makes your website go faster. In many cases, a lot faster.

If you have WordPress, and you test your site on Google Page Speed Insights and it is not more than at least 70/100 for both Mobile and desktop speeds, you probably need WP Rocket, along with Short Pixel (to reduce image size) and Key Content Delivery Network, which delivers your website content globally (technical but makes your site speed faster in short).

Email Marketing Software

My blogging has allowed me to attract thousands of visitors to my website every month. If I did nothing with those visitors, I would not have a profitable business.

As anyone reading my blogs will know, the purpose of having a blog is twofold:

  1. To prove your expertise; and
  2. To grow your email list.

Nobody sells many of their information products, services or general products straight from their website (unless they are Amazon). They sell from their email list. Therefore, when someone arrives at your website it is vital that they are given the opportunity to discover more about your services, or more about a topic that you have expertise in, by being offered the option of downloading an ‘item of value’ in exchange for their email address.

For my blogs, I use two pieces of software. One for my email marketing software and one to create attractive download buttons.

Membership Site Software

Once you have built up your expertise and attracted a tribe of followers on your email marketing list, your next step is usually to offer products or a monthly subscription service so that your tribe can access your best thinking and ideas (and shortcuts).

For my membership sites, The More Clients Academy & Marketing4Solicitors, plus my Mastermind Group Blueprint, I use 10xPro.

It allows you to create sales pages, but more importantly, the full membership site inside the platform. You can allow instant access to all of your course materials, or you can drip feed the content by day, week or month.

Appointment Scheduling

Once you have created your email list, if you sell any of your products or services on a Zoom call or similar, it is so much easier to do this when you ask your clients to book themselves into your diary.

I coined the phrase ‘easy life marketing’, because after years of trying every form of sales and marketing tactics, from networking to cold calling, exhibitions to TV, radio and national newspaper advertising, I realised that not all forms of marketing are created equal.

I decided to only focus on the types of marketing where clients would find my services at the precise moment in time that they were looking for them – easy life marketing.

Now, clients find my blog, join my email list, then if they are the right fit for me, they receive an invitation to book a call with me to discuss how I can help them.

They come to me, I don’t chase them. Real ‘easy life marketing’.

The software I use that allows people to book themselves into my diary is called Acuity Scheduling.

Make ebook cover designs, website graphics etc online.

I could not have managed with this tool when I started out blogging seriously.

And there is a lesson here for any avid bloggers.

Perfection Kills Momentum.

I didn’t use perfect graphics when I started. In fact, I created them myself. The key thing was speed. I created a new ‘item of value’, created the ebook cover and had it live on my website in minutes.

People downloaded my guides, my email list grew and I started to make money from blogging.

The tool I used solely at the beginning (and still use every week now before for speed of design) is this one:

Next Level Graphic Design – Designers On Tap

Once you are making money from blogging, it is time to take your designs to the next level. Whilst I still use Snappa for some fast/simple designs, I now mainly use the design company that I have permanently on tap to do any design for me.

They designed the look and feel of this website and all of my ebooks and training courses.

How To Get Clients Fast

Why Me?

  • I focus on marketing that brings clients to you when they are ready to buy your services (easy life marketing I like to call it).
  • I ensure that every penny you spend on marketing creates a return on investment for you. Vanity marketing does not pay your bills, so I won’t let you do it.
  • I have been marketing service businesses since 1991.

Best Selling Amazon Author

Two best selling marketing books on Amazon:

“Before we started working with Nick, we had no clear idea of our paid traffic strategy.

We knew there were people looking for what we offer, but we just weren’t getting them landing on our website, and when they did, they weren’t converting in the way we wanted them to.

That’s when we enlisted Nick’s help, and it’s made a profound difference both to the number of leads coming into the business, but the quality too.

He’s helped us bring in several very high-quality leads, which will be worth many hundreds of thousands of pounds, as well as helping our website become better and more conversion-focused too.

I couldn’t recommend Nick more highly – if you’re looking for more leads and more sales, it’s a no-brainer to have a conversation.

Elliott Myatt, Play Area Hygiene Services, Kingsbridge.

“I run an HR business dealing with the nasty bits of HR (disciplinaries, grievances, terminations, etc). I have been working with Nick for 12 months now and it has really changed the quality of leads I am getting. My website is now attracting the right type of clients and brings in a lot more quality, and easy to convert, leads. Nick is clear in what the marketing priorities are to get me the results I want. Very easy to work with and cuts to the heart of the matter – no excuses!”

Carolyne Wahlen, GAP HR Services, Goring

“After working with Nick on our Google My Business strategy we are now ranking in the “Google 3 pack” and generating leads purely from our ranking!Nick also carried out a fee review resulting in a fee increase of 40% and no detrimental effect to volume. Double whammy with increased leads and increased income. Well worth taking the time to talk to Nick and definitely worth working with him going forward, it’s a no brainer!”

David Aggiss, Three Sixty Mortgages, Plymouth.

“Nick’s advice and guidance has been excellent. He cuts through all the noise and brings clarity. His focus is on what is effective and what will achieve the objective. He knows what works and what doesn’t and shows you the best way to approach a strategy.

One particular aspect of marketing was hard to get my head around but Nick made everything so clear and easy to understand. When you speak to him you will see, he knows his stuff!

Thanks Nick.”

Shan Phoenix, Geneva Wealth, Harpenden

Before meeting Nick, I was wasting money with Google, I had a high price per click and a trickle of leads. Now, having worked with Nick for 3 months my Google business page is optimised, my price per click is greatly reduced, customers are finding me and quality leads are flowing! Which means, my Google Ads spend is now profitable with a 3:1 return!

That is why I would strongly recommend working with Nick if you want consistent leads and a greater return on your investment – thanks Nick”.

Richard Linden, The Rent Guarantee Company, Harlow.

“Through Nick’s advice and on going encouragement I have almost doubled my client base and am now looking to take on members of staff to deal with the increase in demand for my services. My success has been in no small way facilitated by my business coaching with Nick. I would, and I do, recommend him to anyone who wants to grow their business.”

Ben Winter, Bristol Wellness Personal Training, Bristol.

“I’m new to google Ads, Nick is managing my ad campaigns and doing a great job, I’m receiving a steady flow of leads with a low cost per click meaning my marketing is paying for itself. Would recommend.”

Wendy Clarke

“Nick’s professional advice, expert knowledge and constant encouragement have proved invaluable this past year. He has helped my business from the outset, offering me support and guidance every step of the way. His services come highly recommended.”

Charlotte Laken – Copywriter

“Nick is an excellent marketing consultant. His knowledge of Google PPC is unparalled. Well worth a chat.Every time I use him my results improve and I make money. Do the sensible thing and pick up the phone to him as you won’t regret it.”

Phil O’Connor, Whitewell Financial Planning, Bolton.
