Frequently Asked Questions

Social media platforms are used daily by the majority of people worldwide. Not leveraging these platforms to engage with your target audience and increase online visibility would be a missed opportunity for your brand. Many consumers check a brand’s social media pages or profile before making a purchase decision. Establishing a social presence for your business allows both existing and potential customers to review your activity and interact with you in a more casual, approachable way. Consumers who aren’t ready to purchase may engage with you via Facebook chat or reach out on Twitter or LinkedIn, rather than filling out a consultation form on your website.

Creating a business page or profile on any major social network is free, but managing, monitoring, planning, and designing social media content requires significant time and effort. We offer affordable marketing plans for each network, providing flexibility to suit your business and budget. If these plans don’t quite meet your needs, our team of social media experts can also develop custom strategies tailored specifically to your business.

Partnering with a social media marketing agency gives you access to years of expertise and a team of dedicated professionals. While you focus on running your business, we’ll concentrate on strategy and helping you grow your social presence. Our team has the skills, tools, and experience to help you navigate these platforms, connect with your audience, and achieve real results for your overall digital success.

The best platforms for social media marketing are those that your audience uses most. While having a presence on multiple networks is beneficial, your business should prioritize marketing and advertising efforts on the platform that best reaches your target demographic. In Western markets, platforms like YouTube, Facebook, and LinkedIn are popular, while in Asian markets, local platforms such as Line, Naver, Baidu, and Kakao also play a key role.
