Subject: Looking for a Car Detailing Company to Send Phone Calls
Hi there,
Would you be the right person to talk to about referring some customers your way?
I recently built a website for one of my car detailing clients but he’s kind of out of town, and it’s generating steady leads for services.
I just don’t wanna lose these leads. I know how valuable they are and I’ve got about 12 right now in and around Kitchener. I just need to give them off to somebody for a while until I figure out what to do with the site.
So if you’re taking in more work, please let me know and I would be happy to provide you with more information and answer any questions you may have.
Analysis
- Open Rate:
- The campaign had a high open rate of 82.61%. This indicates that the subject line and sender information were compelling enough for recipients to open the emails. For cold outreach, this is an impressive open rate, showing that the initial contact was well-received.
- Click Rate:
- The click rate was 0%, which was expected since no links were included in the emails. Including relevant links or CTAs in future campaigns might help improve this metric.

Conclusion
The outreach email campaign for car detailing leads showed potential with a high open and reply rate, especially for cold outreach. The results are promising, highlighting the effectiveness of the initial engagement strategy.

Healthy Living Blog: Facebook Ad Copywriting Case Study
- Client Healthy Living Blog
- Services Ad Copywriting, Direct Response Copy
- Budget $50,000 in sales generated
- Duration 4 Months
The client had a natural healing product targeting people tired of chronic pain, expensive medical bills and the side effects that come with mainstream medication. The audience was skeptical by nature.
These are people who have tried things before and been let down. The copy had to earn their trust before asking for anything.
The Copy Approach
This called for long form direct response copy. Not a quick punchy ad. A story.
The copy opened by going straight at the pain.
Chronic conditions, mounting medical bills, the fear of needles, the frustration of treatments that never fix the root cause. It spoke to someone who had watched people they love suffer and felt powerless about it.
From there it introduced the solution as something the audience had probably never considered.
Not another pill. Not another appointment. A simple 3 minute routine built on ancient healing principles with no needles, no side effects and no practitioner needed.
The middle section built credibility through specificity. Over 150 conditions covered. Precise pressure points. The kind of detail that makes a skeptical reader think this person actually knows what they’re talking about.
The close painted the picture of what life looks like on the other side. Waking up without pain. A doctor surprised by your numbers. Your family healthier without spending thousands on treatments.
Then a soft but clear CTA directing people to a private presentation.
Results in 2 weeks
- Reach: 21,384 people
- Unique link clicks: 648
- CTR: 2.59%, nearly three times the industry average of 0.9%
- Cost per click: $0.57
- Landing page views: 621
- Checkouts initiated: 44
- Total ad spend: $388.06
- Total sales generated: $3,147 in 2 weeks
- Return on ad spend: over 508x
What made it work
The copy respected the reader’s intelligence. It didn’t shout benefits at them or make claims that felt too good to be true. It told a story they recognised, walked them through a solution that made sense and let them arrive at the decision themselves.
A 2.59% CTR on a cold audience in a skeptical health niche is not an accident. Neither is $3k from just $388 in spend. That’s what happens when the copy is doing its actual job.
How We Took a Struggling Wellness Blog from $0 to $550k in 18 Months
- Client Jane Summerfield
- Date 11 July 2020
- Services SEO, Email Marketing, Social Marketing, PPC
- Duration 21 Months
- Budget $83000
The Problem:
Wellness Warrior was a passion project turned business, a health and nutrition blog with 47,000 email subscribers but virtually zero revenue. The founder had great content and a loyal audience, but no monetization strategy and a website buried on page 4 of Google for her main topics.
What We Did:
Most SEO agencies would’ve started with link building. We started with surgery. Their site had 600+ blog posts with zero search intent optimization.
We:
- Consolidated 600 posts into 120 comprehensive guides targeting commercial keywords (“best protein powder for women over 40” vs. “what is protein”)
- Rewrote product reviews to actually convert; added comparison tables, video demos, and affiliate links that didn’t feel sleazy
- Fixed a site speed disaster (7.2s load time → 1.8s) that was killing mobile conversions
Then we got aggressive with content distribution:
- Launched a Pinterest strategy that drove 340K monthly visitors within 6 months
- Partnered with 12 micro-influencers in the wellness space for backlinks and traffic
- Created a weekly email sequence that converted subscribers into buyers (2.3% → 8.7% click-to-purchase rate)
The Results:
- Revenue: $0 → $550k over 18 months (primarily affiliate commissions and sponsored content)
- Organic traffic: 12,000 → 290,000 monthly visitors
- Keyword rankings: 0 first-page rankings → 147 top-3 positions for commercial keywords
- Email conversion: Tripled click-through rates and grew list to 94,000 subscribers
The Real Win:
6 months in, the founder quit her corporate job. By month 18, she’d hired a team of 3. The business now runs semi-passively while she focuses on creating content she actually cares about.
