The Process
1
Audit / Research
I dedicate around 10-12 hours thoroughly researching your niche, sub-niches, competitors, and target audience, ensuring I understand the landscape. During this process, you'll receive a set of questions to help me grasp your insights and future goals for the business.
2
Script / Editing
Once the research is complete, we’ll move to the drawing board. I’ll present a range of content ideas, and you’ll provide the raw material (I can assist with filming / content production if needed). From there, I’ll handle the editing, and we’ll go through a feedback phase before finalizing and posting.
3
Profile Management
I'll manage the full optimization of your profile, ensuring it attracts your ideal audience. I'll also oversee community engagement—fostering interactions to build a strong connection with your followers. This way, your brand stays active and engaged while you focus on your business.
