4 Major Challenges Faced By Entrepreneurs

Great Professionalism and Results!

After living through an absolute nightmare of outsourcing the managmement of our Google Ads account that cut our revenue in half, we were introduced to Kristen. She took a professional approach, working with us to understand our business, set-up some straightfoward campaigns, regulary review and tweak and always working with a sense of urgency, attention to detail and great communication, turned things around. Just a few months later, we are now moving past our previous peak and into new territory in the number of leads, conversions and revenue.

Great ad partner!

Kristen has been fantastic to work with. She knows Google Ads, will work with me on strategy and provides very thorough reporting. I'd recommend her to anyone!

Liz Adamson

Great job and very nice service!

We have been extremely pleased with your work for us and would happily use you again in the future! We will certainly recommend you as an outsourced service and would naturally ask you to work with us in the future should we need more help.

First class service and super friendly too..

Despite being based in the UK we managed to find Kristen via referral. She has always delivered on brief, on time and on budget. The UK/USA distance was no problem either. The service has always been exceptional and all done with a happy positive attitude. Would definitely recommend if you are looking to outsource you PPC

Great job

Great job on rewriting and posting my blogs for me. While my ideas were spot on, I did not write it correctly. You said it all in a professional manner for me. Really good job!!

Easy to work with

Kristin was great, she helped with my website stuff that I didn’t understand and saved me a lot time and hassle, and she’s affordable, I would highly recommend!

Paid Ads - She's Been Amazing

We were referred to Kristen from another business owner for Paid Ads on Google (PPC). I had been running PPC myself but wasn’t getting the results we needed and we were headed into our busiest time of year (Black Friday and Christmas) and we had hefty goals that we needed to meet. I had been frustrated with the lack of return and super busy with all of the other marketing responsibilities I needed to fulfil at the company.

So, we got started with Kristen and a $2,000 budget with the hope to get a 2.0 return on ad spend. Within the first week we were seeing good results and increased to $2,500 and ended the month spending $3,000. The following month we started with $3,000 and ended up spending $4,000. We were seeing a 3-4.3 return on spend and Kristen explained things really well and showed the results for her ads as well as our overall traffic which helped me understand our overall position going into the holidays.

The following month was our biggest month with the most aggressive goals and we spent $10,000 in Nov and $8,000 in Dec and still maintained at least a 3.3 return and up to 4.5 and never lost steam. Kristen kept me appraised of our spend and results and kept working on the ads throughout the month, working with me on our holiday promos and discussing the results of the ads and all traffic. I was relieved to know that I could focus on the other marketing efforts and responsibilities while Kristen took care of the ads and did so much better.

I would recommend Kristen to any business owner looking to improve their visibility online and to grow their business with paid ads. She’s been AMAZING.

Boosted My Business

Kristen has really helped boost our business, but mostly she has really helped boost my confidence as a business woman. I could go to her with any questions I had regarding marketing and knew I would get an honest answer. She always made me feel like I was a priority!

I've known and worked with Kristen for years now, but she continually challenges and helps me to improve my SEO, keywords, and business focus so that I can achieve the results I seek.

Recently, she taught me some quick yet powerful ways to enhance my blogs and website content. She knows her stuff and communicates it to you until you get it. I greatly appreciate her tenacity, knowledge, and assistance to make my business grow!

Hands Down the Best PPC Expert

I brought on Kristen and A Visual Business to handle a PPC project for one of Atomic Revenue revenue's corporate real estate clients. The client had previously been working with a digital agency that was mishandling their account. I brought in Kristen as the new PPC Manager and Strategist on the account and the results have been outstanding. The quality of inbound PPC leads has raised exponentially and the conversion rate on those leads is close to 40% - keep in mind this commercial real estate is in the millions of dollars for sales. We've gotten a very positive ROI working with Kristen and will continue working with her as long as possible! I can't wait to plug her into more projects.

I Recommend A Visual Business

Kristen is extremely helpful. I lost 90% of my sales as I migrated to a new domain. She helped me in gaining visibility through PPC for instant results and also started working on SEO for long term results. I recommend A Visual Business to the people who are looking for PPC and SEO services.

Most everything I know about SEO, I learned from Kristen

Whenever I need to know how to do something with SEO, I know I can turn to Kristen for just the right assistance. She's at the top of the game when it comes to SEO and PPC marketing, and her knowledge has really helped me grow my online magazine. She's a great resource and her regular blog posts offer so much value. I treat it like a learning library. And you'll learn even more in person! With Kristen's help, my online magazine has grown rapidly. We're approaching our one year anniversary, and the growth we've achieved wouldn't have been possible without Kristen's instruction. If you need growth, call Kristen!

Kristen is professional, efficient, and a magic worker. She fixed a problem on my site I have been trying to sort for a few years, and she did it patiently and with no fuss. I cannot recommend her expertise enough. My only regret is that I didn't know her when I was setting up my site as I know she would have saved me much time and many headaches. If you want friendly, professional and expert help, you don't have to look further than Kristen. She is definitely my go to person from now on.

I cannot say enough about working with Kristen. If you want fast, efficient and professional this is the place and Kristen is the lady!!! I tried the DIY and got so frustrated and resentful... one conversation with Kristen and she told me exactly what was needed to get my site up and running. I was so tired of DIY I asked her to GO FOR IT... and she did. I couldn't believe how quick Kristen took care of things that I had been working on for not only hrs but in a couple cases... days. I am over-the-moon happy with how things turned out and I know that Kristen will be my GO TO GIRL for all website and online needs from here on out. Don't waste your time on DIY... Kristen has you covered!!!

What a great experience I had working with Kristen. I've worked with other SEO companies in the past who talked a great game, but didn't really do a whole lot. Kristen goes above & beyond to make sure you understand exactly what it is she's doing and why she's doing it. I've learned quite a bit and enjoyed the processed.

There are no words to express my gratitude for all that Kristen Wilson has done to enable me to grow as a business owner, with a global presence. She is "brilliant"! Extremely proficient at her craft; she is efficient and genuinely cares about her clients.

She has diligently handled every concern and need large or small (SEO, blogging, website building, pluggin questions, coaching and so much more) for our organization with an extreme level of importance.

Thank goodness for "A Visual Business"!

Just Brilliant! I live in the UK and have had several Skype calls with Kristen to help me with some SEO work on my corset business. I ranked silly like on pages 40 nine months ago, now on several keywords i am on page 3! In my niche, that's pretty impressive.
I would highly recommend working with Kristen if you need help with any SEO work, she's great.

I am so glad I just happened to see this class announced on Facebook! I'm new to Texas and starting a new business . . . in case you didn't know, it's very difficult to start a business when you know no one! I learned so much in Kristen's class! I've already made some changes to what I was already doing and begun using ideas and applications she suggested!

Kristen took a subject (SEO) about which I was completely ignorant and frankly, afraid of, and made it understandable. After just an hour with her, I'm confident that I can implement the changes she suggested. Her professionalism and knowledge are exemplary. I will heartily recommend you to others! Thank you!

I took a class with Kristen on Social Media and while I knew a bit about how Facebook works but after the class and some additional question and answers, I began to understand better how it works. I just wish other people and business owners understood the filters in Facebook and the value of the comment and share versus the like. I would highly recommend Kristen’s classes, using her services or having her help you with a consultation as it would be valuable to you and your business.

Kristen Wilson of A Visual Business knows about search engine optimization and social media marketing. Just a few tweaks here and there to my website and I have seen a difference in the stats. I really like how she also takes the time to not only explain what she will do, but breaks it down into laymen terms so I understand just how it will benefit my business. She's been a real treasure to work with!

I have been impressed with Kristen's knowledge since the first time I met her. She knows her stuff when it comes to SEO, and she will help you maximize your efforts. Having a website isn't enough. We must know how to best attract the RIGHT people. Since applying her suggestions, my website has been in the top three with search engines. Get seen by using her services.

Kristen is a marketing machine, period. Results driven and client centric creating a perfect match for my clients and my way of doing business. Her attention to detail and organizational skills are unmatched along with the fact that Kristen is consummate professional.

I had the pleasure of attending Social Media/Network Marketing training today with Kristen Wilson, the owner of A Visual Business. She has a refreshing approach to a tedious process we all deal with, Internet Marketing. I was immediately able to take her ideas and implement them on my company's Facebook page with instant results. No sooner had I made the updates she taught in class, than responses started pouring in. If an Internet presence is key for your company, if curb side appeal is and element used in your Social Media, if you want to be the one that stands out in your industry, then Kristen has the components you've been looking for. The great thing is that the information is in a digestible format and will give you the edge you need to get your company noticed.

I started working with Kristen about a year ago. I just started researching around on creating a new website for my company and I ran in to her at a local networking group. She helped me create my current web page and boosted it to the top 3 home inspection web sites with in 7 months. She is always by the phone and is happy to help . Thank you Kristen for all your hard work and your honest opinion it really shows in my business everyday.

I can't recommend A Visual Business strongly enough. I have spent thousands of dollars on traditional magazine ads that yielded little to nothing in return. Kristen goes out of her way to ensure that her customers are happy and well taken care of. She always exceeds our expectations.

When I reached out to AVB, Kristin reviewed my website in advance, and at our first meeting, she suggested a lot of improvement before we initiated the contract. Within days of moving forward, our new patient volume increased dramatically. We have been consistently busy ever since.
