Case Studies

The Marketing Zen Group was Previosuly Known as Click To Client, LLC. Some case studies may reflect that earlier name.

Dear Shama,

Thank you so much for your keen insight, straight answers, and above all; expert advice. I really appreciated your candor when pointing out the shortcomings of our website and how they related to our marketing plan. Though hearing what we had done wrong was a hard pill to swallow initially, you were right on all counts. Our website simply wasn’t doing the job and no amount of marketing would correct that. The redesign that After The Launch did is nothing short of miraculous. Though professionally designed in the past, this was the first time a marketing genius had a hand in it. What’s more impressive is that you essentially accomplished this on the first of the several great design options you presented. I’ll never forget one of your first questions to me, “Is it a piece of art, or is it supposed to sell something?”. It was clear that you did your homework on our industry, as evidenced by the finished product.

Our programmers will finish implementation of the new design soon, and we can’t wait to watch our conversions increase. I have no doubt that your insight was the missing piece in our overall business plan.

Can’t thank you enough,

Brian Waspi, Co-Founder, My Dream Home Registry

When I first met Shama I called her a fireball of enthusiasm and energy! She has so much passion for what she does and always gives her heart and soul to every project. She is gifted in her abilities to tune into what you need and get the job done fast. There is great excitement when she gets on a creative roll and the ideas start pouring out. Shama is master of action and results when it comes to business, she knows just what area is out of balance and where to target the attention. She is focused, driven, and dedicated. If you are looking for sure-fire ways to boost the success of your business, Shama can take you there. She’s got what it takes to bring a company to the top of its game.”

I met Shama in San Antonio, during one of Derek Gehl’s seminars. It was so refreshing to meet someone who I knew could take me from Point A to Point B in no time. In working with Shama, she was able to get me to think for myself, to get the “creative me” out and get it to work for me. She was able to get me motivated and excited about what needed to get done to expand my business and be successful. Her expertise and motivation are what drive me and knowing that someone is there with all the answers to all my questions. I have yet to meet anyone on the internet with her caliber that actually gives of themselves like this lady does. She works with you on every step of the way, helping you to setup goals and objectives for your business. I have thoroughly enjoyed working with Shama and her team and hope to continue working with them on future projects.

Shama is dynamic, energetic, and persuasive. She knows how to make things happen! Shama is amazingly effective and energizing. She helped me structure my own business for success. I’d recommend her to anyone and everyone!

Shama Hyder is an excellent marketing advisor and consultant. Her advice is particularly useful for professional service businesses. She has provided our firm expert advice that has significantly improved our marketing and business development practices. Her team then executes recommended actions that we approve. More than once, I have found myself saying to Shama: “I wish we had known you years ago!” She is very easy to work with and quite personable. I highly recommend her to any professional services firm that needs marketing advice and consulting.

What makes Shama so darn good is her ability to tie social media marketing into the entire strategy of an internet marketing plan. She actually works with companies and solo-practices to leverage the power of social media.

Maria Reyes- McDavis, Web Success Diva

Shama is an online marketing expert. How do I know this without having met her? Because I have visited her website, “AftertheLaunch.com ,” read her blog, and downloaded her e-book, “Online Marketing Plan.” There is so much great stuff inside this e-book that you’ll be amazed she’s not charging big bucks for you to buy it. The wonderful thing about content marketing, as Shama proves, is that you can out market a giant corporation without needing to come close to outspending it. Sensational content marketing is not about what’s inside your wallet. It’s about what’s inside your brain.

Newt Barrett, Co-Author of Get Content, Get Customers

Shama is not an “Internet Marketer,” as in someone who is full of hype and shallow promises. So don’t expect anything like that…Rather, she is a “New Media Marketer”, which is someone who doesn’t need to use hype because their knowledge and professionalism stand on their own.

Dave Kaminski, Web Video University

From the beginning of our relationship I have had every faith in Shama. She quickly understood what I wanted to achieve by asking some very pertinent questions. She is always ready to brainstorm ideas or if you need her to she gets on with it and comes back to you with a solution. I know that if I tried to do my own on-line marketing I would have spent many wasted hours and probably not done a very good job! However with Shama completely looking after my interests in this area I know I have a subject matter expert managing my on-line marketing…. allowing me to focus on building my business. I would recommend Shama’s professional approach and friendly relationship to anyone. She is always happy to help.

Jeanette McLeod, Director and Owner of Wizz-e.com

Shama is a master! She combines in-depth knowledge of social media marketing, web design and online business exposure with an effervescent personality and concierge attention to her clients. It has been more than a pleasure working with her and reaping the results of her efforts.

I recently hired Click to Client for a consultation to help me understand how to better use Social Media. I am going to start blogging, and although I use LinkedIn and Facebook, I knew I needed more tips and tricks. Stephanie came to my studio and worked with me at my own computer – showing me step by step the shortcuts and secrets. Stephanie is very approachable and friendly, and even more importantly, knowledgeable. In a very unassuming way, she taught me more in 1 hour than I could have learned in any book, or in a workshop. The one on one was perfect for my circumstances. The fee and the time were a great investment. I can’t wait to get started and use the suggestions from Stephanie and Click to Client to enhance the use of social media for my personal brand, as well as for the commercial photo studio I represent. I’ve even ventured out into the world of Twitter – and I was dead set against it because it seemed too complicated for the time I could allot to it. I am looking forward to my next consultation and all that I will gain from it!
