Social Media Marketing Agency

A social media marketing agency plans, creates, publishes and advertises content on platforms like Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube and X to build awareness, engagement and sales for a business. A strong agency connects social to your broader marketing strategy and reports results in leads and revenue, not only followers.

Social strategy

Platform selection, audience research, positioning, content pillars and publishing cadence tied to business goals.

Content creation

Short-form video, graphics, carousels and copy in your brand voice, built for each platform.

Community management

Timely responses to comments and messages that build trust and surface customer insight.

Paid social advertising

Meta, LinkedIn, TikTok and YouTube campaigns with precise targeting, creative testing and retargeting.

Influencer and creator partnerships

Creator content that reaches new audiences and answers real buyer objections.

Reporting

Clear monthly reporting on reach, engagement, traffic, leads and return on ad spend.

Organic content builds brand and community; paid social scales what works and reaches buyers who are not following you yet. We test messages organically, then put budget behind the winners, and use retargeting to bring engaged audiences back to convert. Paid social works best alongside PPC management and strong landing pages.

• Instagram and Facebook: brand storytelling, Reels, community and Meta Ads.
• LinkedIn: thought leadership, employee advocacy and B2B lead generation.
• TikTok and YouTube: short-form and long-form video for discovery.
• X and Pinterest: where your audience is active and the goals fit.

Every program starts with defined KPIs: qualified traffic, leads, sales, cost per acquisition and return on ad spend, alongside reach and engagement. We connect social activity to your analytics and CRM so you can see which content and campaigns drive revenue. Read about the value of social media in business.

B2B social media marketing focuses on building authority with decision-makers and generating pipeline, most often on LinkedIn and YouTube. It looks different from consumer social: fewer viral moments, more expertise, proof and relationships.

• LinkedIn marketing: company page strategy, executive thought leadership and employee advocacy.
• LinkedIn ads: targeting by industry, company size, job title and account lists for ABM.
• Video: explainer, demo and expert content on YouTube and LinkedIn.
• Content repurposing: turning webinars, case studies and articles into social series.

Short-form video on TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts is now one of the most effective ways to reach new audiences organically. We plan hooks and series, script and produce videos, and partner with creators whose audiences match your buyers. For TikTok marketing, we focus on native, entertaining content that still connects back to a clear business goal.

Social platforms increasingly influence how brands appear in search and AI answers. Reviews, discussions and creator content are part of what AI assistants read when they summarize a category. Consistent, helpful social content strengthens your brand entity and supports answer engine optimization. Pair social with content marketing so every article becomes a week of social content.

M16 social media programs start at $2,000 per month for a focused, single-brand program covering one or two core channels, and $4,000 per month for multi-channel organic and paid programs. Ad spend is separate and set by your goals. See our pricing page for details.

A social media strategy defines who you are trying to reach, which platforms you will use, what you will publish and how you will measure success. Ours includes:

1. Goals and KPIs tied to awareness, leads or sales
2. Audience research into who your buyers are and where they spend time
3. Competitive review of what is working in your category
4. Content pillars that balance education, proof, culture and offers
5. Platform plan with formats and cadence for each channel
6. Paid amplification to scale top-performing content
7. Measurement plan connecting social to analytics and CRM

For businesses that serve specific cities, social media builds local awareness and trust. We run location-targeted campaigns, highlight community involvement and local projects, encourage reviews and keep profiles consistent with your Google Business Profile. Multi-location brands get a central strategy with localized content and ads for each market. Pair it with online review management for maximum local impact.

• Posting without a strategy: activity without goals rarely drives revenue.
• Being on every platform: spreading thin instead of excelling where buyers are.
• Ignoring video: static posts alone limit organic reach on most platforms.
• Measuring only likes: vanity metrics hide whether social is producing leads.
• Not responding: unanswered comments and messages erode trust.
• Running ads without tracking: without pixels and conversion events, paid social cannot optimize.

Should my business be on TikTok?

TikTok works well for brands that can create entertaining, authentic short-form video and whose audiences use the platform. We help you test it with a focused content series before committing major resources.
