Social media management
and ads in Calgary
Content that gets shot properly, ads that are managed by someone who reads the numbers, and coaching for business owners who would rather run it themselves. One studio, from the camera to the campaign report.
Meta ads, content production and coaching for Calgary businesses.
Most agencies outsource the camera. We are the camera.
The reason small business feeds go quiet is almost never strategy. It is that nobody has anything to post. The agency books a shoot once a quarter, burns through the images in three weeks, and then the account limps along on stock photos and text tiles until the next one.
We have been producing images and video for twenty years, so the content does not run out. And because the same team runs your ads, the creative being tested was made for the campaign rather than dug out of a folder.
- Content that is actually yoursMonthly shoots of your product, your space and your people, not stock.

Four ways we help
Social media management
We plan, shoot, write, schedule and publish. You approve a month at a time and get your evenings back.
Meta ad management
Facebook and Instagram campaigns built, tested and optimised against a real goal: bookings, leads or sales.
Brand image
A visual identity and content library that makes a two-person business look like an established one.
Coaching and workshops
One-to-one sessions or team workshops, for owners who want to run it in-house and do it properly.
Brand image is not a logo
It is what somebody decides about your business in the two seconds before they read a single word. Consistent colour, consistent light, photographs that look like they came from the same place, and a feed that answers what you sell without anyone having to scroll to find out.
We build that as a system: a palette, a type treatment, shot guidelines and a content library. Then anyone on your team can post without the grid falling apart.

How we work
Audit
We look at your accounts, your competitors and what you are actually trying to sell, then tell you plainly what is working and what is not.
Shoot
One content day gives us a month of images and video, shot to a plan rather than grabbed on a phone between customers.
Publish and test
Posts go out on a schedule you approved. Ads run against one clear goal, with creative swapped as the data comes in.
Report
Monthly, in plain language: spend, results, cost per enquiry, and what we are changing next month.
Social media questions
How much does social media management cost in Calgary?
Management retainers start at $1,200 a month and include a monthly content shoot, scheduling and reporting. Ad management is $900 a month plus your ad spend. One-off coaching sessions start at $250 if you would rather run it yourself.
Do you run Facebook and Instagram ads?
Yes. We build and manage Meta ad campaigns across Facebook and Instagram, including audience setup, creative testing and the Meta pixel on your website. We recommend a minimum ad budget of $500 a month for a campaign to gather enough data to be worth optimising.
Do I need new photos, or can you use what I already have?
We can start with what you have, but most businesses run out of usable images within a few weeks. That is why every retainer includes a content shoot, so the feed never goes quiet because nobody has anything to post.
What is the difference between management and coaching?
With management we do the work: shoot, write, schedule, run the ads and report. With coaching we teach you or your team to do it, with a plan and monthly check-ins. Businesses with someone in-house usually get better value from coaching.
How long before we see results?
Ad performance data is readable within two to three weeks. Organic growth is slower, usually three to six months of consistent posting before it compounds. Anyone promising faster than that is selling you followers, not customers.
Which platforms do you work with?
Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, LinkedIn and YouTube. We will usually tell you to drop one or two of them. Most small businesses do better on two platforms properly than on five badly.
Do you work with businesses outside Calgary?
Yes. Coaching and ad management work anywhere. Content shoots need us in the room, so those are Calgary and area unless you are covering travel.
