What’s included

What’s included in social media management?

Posting “when there’s time” doesn’t work. We give your business a steady, planned presence — and ads when you need new customers fast.

A monthly content plan

We plan your posts a month ahead — openings, specials, holidays and everyday moments — and you approve them first.

Best for: Owners with no time to post

Posts & stories designed for you

Eye-catching posts and stories in your brand colors and fonts, written in your voice.

Best for: A feed that looks professional

Local ad campaigns

Paid ads shown to people near your business — so new customers discover you, not just existing followers.

Best for: New openings and slow days

Promotions & events

Campaigns for grand openings, seasonal specials, holidays and events — planned in time, not last minute.

Best for: Getting a crowd on the day

One look with your sign & site

Every post matches your storefront and website, so people recognize you in a busy feed.

Best for: Being remembered

A simple monthly check-in

A plain-English summary of what worked, what didn’t and what we’ll do next month.

Best for: Knowing your money is working

Posts or ads?

Should a local business post, run ads, or both?

Both do different jobs. Regular posts keep you in front of people who already know you. Ads reach new people nearby who have never heard of you. Most local businesses do best with steady posts plus ads around openings, specials and slow seasons.

Street to feed

Your sign brings them in once. Your feed brings them back.

A customer who walks past your sign today might follow you tomorrow. When your posts look exactly like your storefront, they connect the two — and come back for the next special, the new menu or the weekend deal.

FAQ

Social media questions

Which social media platforms do you manage?

We focus on where your customers are — for most local businesses that means Instagram, Facebook and your Google Business Profile, plus TikTok when it fits your business. Your free plan recommends the right mix.

How often should a local business post?

A steady schedule every week matters more than posting a lot at once. Your content plan sets a schedule that keeps you visible without filling feeds with filler.

Do I get to approve posts before they go live?

Yes. You see your content plan before anything is published, and you can ask for changes.

How much do social media ads cost?

You choose your ad budget, which is paid to the platform, and our management fee is separate. Your free plan includes a clear quote and a suggested starting budget.

Do I need to provide photos?

Your own photos help, but they’re not required. We design branded graphics and can show you how to take great photos of your products and space with your phone.

Can I start with just ads or just posting?

Yes. You can start with one and add the other later — many businesses start with ads for an opening, then keep regular posting going.
