What Are Social Posts?
Our Social Posts provide regular weekly posts across the most popular social media platforms for your business. Regular, meaningful updates to your social profiles can drive engagement and help you establish your presence online.
A social media specialist will create unique copy for each post and take advantage of hashtags appropriately to boost discoverability. Social Posts can benefit nearly every type of business. We currently provide posting for the service industry, retail, eCommerce, and many others.
Note - This Social Posts service does not include graphic design, customized images, GIFs, or videos. You or the client must supply media for posting. These materials are not mandatory, and we can provide a licensed image with each post.
Things to Consider Before You Purchase
Deciding Where to Post
Our team can post to Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, and Pinterest. You are not required to create new accounts for each platform and post to each.
For example, Facebook offers massive reach and an easy-to-use advertising platform but may require more effort to drive engagement. Image-based platforms like Instagram and Pinterest perform best with more frequent posts and customized graphics.
Research each platform and understand how it could benefit your industry. You can let your social media expert know if you wish to opt out of posting on a given platform.
Creating New Social Accounts
You or the client must create social media accounts/pages before signing up for the service. While an employee can assist with general questions, we do not perform the setup process for you. Additionally, you will receive your first month’s bill regardless of whether or not the accounts are set up. Ensure that you have an active account and can provide the login credentials to avoid posting delays.
Granting Access to Facebook and LinkedIn
While you may provide login credentials to Facebook, it is not necessary. We understand that you wish to protect your security and ad accounts. Therefore, you only need to grant us the appropriate permissions to manage your page.
You can learn how to do this by reading more on the topic here.

Monthly Social Posts
Monthly social posting works the same as it did during the setup process. With your accounts already in place, we will continue writing the copy and scheduling posts at targeted days and times to receive the most engagement possible.
To improve the results of your social posts, we may reach out periodically to discuss posting ideas and gather additional assets. If we do not receive input from you or the client, we will continue generating and scheduling posts as normal.
Note - You may post on the social accounts yourself in addition to our service. We highly recommend speaking to your project manager to avoid cannibalizing your content. We will work with you to organize a posting schedule that delivers the best results possible.
Billing & Subscription
You will receive your first charge immediately upon checkout. You will receive an additional charge every month on that same date for as long as your subscription is active.
There are no additional charges or fees associated with our social posts service.
