Social Media

Social media marketing that supports revenue.
Not posts nobody sees.

Organic reach for business accounts is effectively dead. We run paid social like real media buying, support founder/executive presence where it actually exists, and refuse to charge you for Instagram posts that'll be seen by 47 people.

Straight talk: organic social media management is mostly theater

Organic reach for business accounts varies substantially by platform, account, audience, and content. A posting calendar can support consistency and brand presence, but frequency alone is not a business outcome. We measure what the content actually produces instead of selling a fixed number of posts as the strategy.

Business-account distribution varies by platform, format, audience, and account history, and paid distribution is an important part of many social programs. We do not treat a posting calendar or raw reach as proof of business impact; we measure traffic quality, qualified opportunities, and other agreed outcomes instead.

What actually works

The three social services we offer, and why we stop there.

Most agencies sell you a bundle: management, paid, content, influencer, community, reporting. We sell three. The ones that move revenue. The rest is noise we won't charge you for.

01

Paid social media (the real work)

Meta, TikTok, LinkedIn, and X run as actual media buying — not "boost this post." We use creative testing, audience targeting, conversion tracking, campaign structure, refresh cycles, and reporting measured against qualified business outcomes rather than engagement alone.

What's included
  • Campaign strategy across Meta, TikTok, LinkedIn, X
  • Creative direction + asset production (static, video, UGC-style)
  • Audience targeting, lookalikes, custom audiences
  • Pixel setup, conversion tracking, attribution
  • Creative refresh cycles (new ads every 2–4 weeks)
  • Weekly optimization, monthly strategy calls
02

Founder/executive organic presence

Organic social works — but on personal accounts with a real human posting, not business pages. We support founders, executives, and subject-matter experts who actually want to post: content strategy, editing, scheduling, engagement, analytics. We don't ghostwrite. You show up, we make it easier.

What's included
  • Content strategy tailored to your voice + industry
  • Post editing, formatting, cross-platform optimization
  • Scheduling + publishing across LinkedIn, X, Threads
  • Engagement monitoring (comments, DMs, mentions)
  • Analytics: what's working, what to double down on
  • Monthly content planning call (you post, we facilitate)
03

Community management (where real community exists)

If you have a real community — Discord, Slack group, Facebook group, subreddit, active comments section — managing it is worth paying for. Moderating, engaging, surfacing user questions, keeping the space healthy. We won't pretend your Instagram followers are a "community" when they're just followers.

What's included
  • Moderation + response SLAs
  • Content prompts to drive discussion
  • Surfacing user questions to your product/support teams
  • Event coordination (AMAs, launches, hosted discussions)
  • Weekly health reports on community activity
  • Strategy for growing real engagement, not vanity metrics
Scope we refuse

Four services other agencies sell that we won't.

These aren't competitors we dislike — these are scopes that take your money without giving you outcomes. We'd rather name them than quietly include them in a retainer.

Business-page organic content calendars

A fixed posting cadence is not a strategy by itself. Organic business-page reach varies by platform, account, audience, and content quality, so we set a sustainable publishing plan around a real objective instead of selling frequency as the outcome.

Vanity-metric reporting

"Your post got 12,000 impressions!" — but impressions aren't revenue, engagement isn't pipeline, and follower counts don't close deals. We report on what drives business outcomes: leads, conversions, pipeline, revenue. The rest goes in a footnote, not a headline.

Ghostwriting for founders who don't actually post

"Thought leadership" content ghost-written in someone else's voice, then posted on a personal account by a VA. Audiences can tell. Algorithms are starting to tell. If the executive isn't actually involved, we'd rather decline the work than produce content that makes them sound fake.

Influencer campaigns we can't measure

Paying a micro-influencer to post for brand awareness with no tracking, no discount code, no attribution path, no way to evaluate whether it worked. We do run influencer campaigns — but only ones with measurable outcomes. The rest is hoping.

Platforms

Each platform plays a specific role. We pick the ones that fit your buyer.

"We'll run social on all platforms" is a red flag, not a selling point. Most businesses should run 2 platforms well, not 5 platforms badly. Here's what each is actually good for.

Meta (Facebook + Instagram)

Paid media powerhouse

Meta can be a strong paid-social option when the audience, creative, offer, and conversion path fit the platform. Organic business-page performance varies widely, so we evaluate it from your actual audience and objectives rather than treating the platform as universally best.

TikTok

Attention + demand gen

TikTok can be effective for some visual, consumer, and creator-led brands, but reach and media economics vary by audience, format, market, and creative quality. We test it when the audience fit and production model justify the channel instead of treating it as the default growth platform.

LinkedIn

B2B decision-maker targeting

LinkedIn provides professional and company-level targeting that can be useful for B2B programs. Costs and organic performance vary by audience and format, so we judge both paid and founder/company content against qualified business outcomes.

X (formerly Twitter)

Executive presence, narrow paid

Less valuable for paid than it was, but still relevant for executive/founder presence in tech, media, and politics-adjacent verticals. Paid social is usually last-priority here — we only recommend it if your audience lives on X specifically.

How we run paid

A four-stage process for paid social that actually converts.

01

Audience + offer mapping

Before any creative gets built, we map your audience segments, messaging angles, and offer structure. Who are we targeting? What's the message for each segment? What's the funnel-stage offer — awareness, consideration, or conversion? Skipping this step is why most paid social fails.

02

Creative production in batches

Paid social lives and dies by creative. We produce creative in batches of 8–15 assets per campaign: static, video, carousel, UGC-style. Testing across variations is how you find what actually works — single-creative campaigns are a roll of the dice.

03

Campaign structure + pixel optimization

Modern campaign automation can work well with simpler account structures when tracking and conversion data are reliable, but the right setup depends on the platform, objective, signal quality, budget, and audience. We test structure rather than assuming one automation pattern performs best everywhere.

04

Creative refresh + scale decisions

Ad fatigue is real. Every 2–4 weeks we refresh creative based on what's performing. Winning campaigns get scaled up; losers get killed fast. No "let's give it another month to see" stall tactics — the data shows up in weeks, not quarters.

Common questions

Social media FAQs

How much does social media marketing cost?
Paid social typically runs $3K–$20K/month in management fees on top of ad spend, scaled to your budget. Founder organic support runs $1.5K–$5K/month depending on volume. Community management depends entirely on community size — a small Slack community might be $2K/month, a large Discord could be $8K+. We scope each engagement specifically; no templated packages.
Why don't you do business-page content calendars?
Business-account organic reach varies by platform, account, audience, format, and content quality. If feed consistency matters, we can build an appropriate publishing cadence, but we do not sell a high-volume calendar as proof of reach or business impact.
What if my competitors post 5x a week on Instagram?
Their cadence does not tell you whether the program is working. Compare the objective, content quality, audience response, site traffic, qualified opportunities, and cost of production. A higher posting frequency can be useful when the material supports it, but it should not be copied simply because a competitor is active.
Which platforms should I be on?
Use the platforms where your buyers spend time and where your team can produce credible native content. The right number varies by audience, creative capacity, and goals. We would rather manage a smaller set well than distribute generic content everywhere, but there is no universal platform count.
Do you produce content or do I?
Depends on the service. For paid social, we can produce creative end-to-end — copy, design, video editing, and UGC-style assets. For founder or executive organic, we can support editing, scheduling, and analytics. Community-management responsibilities are defined during scoping so brand-sensitive conversations and escalation paths remain clear.
Do you run influencer campaigns?
Occasionally, and only with measurable attribution. Discount codes, dedicated landing pages, UTMs — something that lets us track whether the campaign drove pipeline. Pure "brand awareness" influencer campaigns without measurement are usually a waste, and we'll tell you that before taking the work.
How fast will I see results from paid social?
There is no universal timeline. Paid campaigns can begin collecting data once live, while organic or community programs may take longer to show meaningful business impact. Creative volume, audience size, budget, offer quality, conversion tracking, and sales cycle determine how quickly useful signal accumulates.
What happens if I want to leave?
You own everything — the ad accounts, the creative, the audiences, the pixel data, the reporting. We don't use proprietary tools that lock you in. Common handoff: we do a final reporting session, transfer documentation, and wish you well. No drama.
