Frequently asked questions
-
Choosing the right platforms depends entirely on your target audience. For instance, educational institutions often find success using Instagram, Facebook and increasingly TikTok marketing to reach teachers. Not-for-profits and B2B organisations frequently leverage LinkedIn marketing to connect with corporate partners, grant bodies and professional stakeholders. Our social media strategy helps identify where your community spends their time.
-
Organic social media focuses on building and nurturing your existing community through regular, non-paid posts that share your daily activities and stories. Paid social media involves dedicating an advertising budget to reach specific audiences outside of your current followers. For-purpose organisations use paid campaigns to drive immediate actions, such as boosting event registrations, or end of financial year donations.
-
The term ‘always-on’ refers to a continuous, consistent marketing presence, rather than a short-term, campaign-based launch. Always-on social media can be either organic, paid, or a mix of both.
Most successful organisations combine both approaches. They use organic always-on to nurture their existing community and paid always-on to consistently bring new customers into the conversion funnel.
-
We understand that education, health and not-for-profit organisations can operate in sensitive environments. As part of our social media management services, we collaborate with your team to establish clear community guidelines, escalation paths and approved messaging frameworks. This ensures all comments, questions and direct messages are handled professionally, maintaining your brand reputation and fostering a safe online community.
-
Yes, our social media services are highly collaborative. We often provide high-level social media consulting and strategic content frameworks, while your internal team handles daily posting and photography. This hybrid approach ensures your content remains authentic and grounded in your daily operations, while benefiting from external strategic direction, paid campaign management and performance analysis.
-
We measure success based on your specific organisational goals rather than solely on generic vanity metrics. For brand awareness, we track reach and impressions. For community connection, we monitor meaningful engagement rates and comments. When running paid campaigns for fundraising appeals, we focus on concrete conversion metrics like website clicks, form completions and total donations achieved.
