What our social media marketing covers
Social media strategy
Which platforms to focus on, who to reach, what to say and how social supports your sales goals.
Content calendars and creative
Posts, carousels, reels, stories and short videos designed and written for each platform.
Community management
Replies to comments and messages in your brand voice, with clear rules for when to escalate to you.
Paid social campaigns
Ads on Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn and TikTok, targeted and tested around cost per lead or sale.
Influencer and creator partnerships
Finding relevant creators, agreeing briefs and tracking results, with clearly disclosed paid partnerships.
Reporting and insights
Monthly reports on reach, engagement, clicks, leads and sales, not just likes.
What to expect when you hire
Pick the right platforms, not all of them
Most businesses do better on two or three platforms done well than six done badly. We look at where your buyers spend time and what your competitors get traction with, then recommend where to focus and how often to post.
Content built around what buyers ask
We plan content in pillars: education, proof, behind-the-scenes and offers. Short videos and carousels that answer real customer questions tend to earn more saves and shares than generic promotional posts, so we lead with those.
Organic and paid working together
Organic content builds trust with people who already follow you, and paid social reaches people who do not. We turn the posts that perform best organically into ads, and retarget people who engaged, so both budgets work harder.
Real growth only
We never buy followers, use engagement pods or automate fake interactions. These break platform rules, can get accounts restricted and make your numbers meaningless. Growth comes from good content, community work and properly targeted ads.
Built for South African teams
Time-zone overlap
South Africa is three and a half hours behind India, so our working days overlap for most of your morning and early afternoon.
