Marketing

We begin by discussing what sets your business apart from competitors, the branding, the target audience, and more. The goal is making your business stand out to your intended audience.

Content

We’ll then strategize and shoot content and an advertisement to show off the best of your business. We’ll focus on highlighting not just your services, but your credibility and expertise.

Training

Businesses can opt for 1-on-1 in-person training to learn how to leverage the Meta Ads Manager, establish ManyChat for their page, and receive additional lessons with printed resources.

The Marketing Funnel of Social Media

1. Awareness

Video content receives far more attention and time than photos from cold traffic on social media. By leveraging advertising options on Instagram, we utilize video content to draw in leads to your business.

Video helps people connect to your brand, learn about your services, and steadily builds credibility and interest with each new video. We’ll generate ideas and plan an assortment of videos to show off the best of your business to nurture leads.
