What is social media management?

Social media management is the end-to-end running of a business's social channels: content strategy, creation, scheduling, publishing, community engagement and performance reporting. Popnest Media provides done-for-you social media management from its Montréal base for businesses across the United States and Canada, with video-first content filmed and produced in-house.

The problem

Posting “when you have time” is costing you customers

You know social matters. You also have a business to run.

  • Customers check your profile before buying. They see a dead grid and choose the competitor whose feed looks alive.
  • The algorithm punishes inconsistency. Even your good posts reach fewer people because the account went quiet.
  • Trends move in 72-hour windows. Meanwhile your “we should post about that” idea sits in a group chat until it is irrelevant.
  • A part-time employee handles socials between tasks. And the content looks exactly like that.
  • Nobody is answering the DMs. Questions about hours, bookings and orders sit unread for days, and those were ready-to-buy customers.
Why it matters in 2026

Social is where customers decide who gets their money

Social platforms are search engines now

Gen Z and millennial buyers search TikTok and Instagram before Google when picking a restaurant, salon or local service, whether they are in Toronto or Los Angeles.

Video decides

Over 70% of consumers would rather watch a video than read, and creator-style video keeps gaining ground as a recommendation source.

AI assistants read your social presence

Active, consistent profiles form part of the trust picture when ChatGPT and other assistants decide which businesses to recommend.

Consistency compounds, virality doesn't

Daily presence in your brand voice builds an audience that buys, refers and defends you. One viral post builds nothing you can bank on.

What’s included

Everything Your Social Presence Needs. One Team.

Strategy & Brand Voice

Audience research, competitor analysis, content pillars and a voice guide. What your brand sounds like and why anyone should care, settled before we post a thing.

Content Production, Video First

Reels, TikToks, Shorts, photography, carousels and graphics, all produced in-house. On-location shoots around Montréal, travel shoot days elsewhere, remote capture in between.

Calendar & Publishing

A monthly calendar you approve in one sitting, then we handle captions, hashtags, geo-tags, timing and formatting. Zero “what should we post today?” texts.

Community Management

Comments answered, DMs handled, reviews acknowledged, trolls managed. Fast and on-brand, because engagement velocity feeds every algorithm.

Growth & Engagement

Trend monitoring, UGC, creator partnerships in your market, contests and cross-promotion. Organic growth engineered rather than wished for.

Profile & Bio Optimization

Bios, highlights, pinned posts, link-in-bio and booking paths, all set up so a first-time visitor knows what you sell and how to buy within seconds.

Reporting Tied to Revenue

Reach and followers, plus the part most agencies skip: link clicks, bookings, orders, and the DMs that turned into money.

Pricing

What Social Media Management Costs

Market reality: professionally managed social for small and mid-sized businesses runs $1,000–$5,000/month, and video-heavy programs run $4,000–$7,500 because production is the expensive part. Our in-house production engine changes that math: retainers start at $1,299/month.

Our promises

How We Work, In Writing

  • You own your accounts. Always. We work inside them; we never hold them.
  • You approve before anything posts. Until you tell us to stop asking. Most clients do by month two.
  • Original content only. No stock-template feeds with your logo slapped on.
  • A real human answers your community. Fast, and in your voice.
  • Honest verdicts. If a platform is not working for your audience, we say so and move the effort where it pays.
FAQ

Social Media Management, Answered Straight

What does the service include?

Strategy, content creation covering video, photo, graphics and captions, a monthly calendar, publishing, community management, growth tactics and monthly reporting. All production happens in-house, filming included, so you are not paying us to schedule your own photos.

How much does it cost?

Professionally managed social typically runs $1,000 to $5,000 per month, with video-heavy programs reaching $4,000 to $7,500. Popnest Media retainers start at $1,299 per month, scoped after your free strategy call. Dramatically cheaper usually means stock templates on a scheduler.

Which platforms should we be on?

Where your customers actually are, not everywhere. For most consumer businesses that means Instagram and TikTok for discovery, Facebook for local community, and Google Business Profile posts for local search. For B2B, LinkedIn leads.

Do you actually film the content?

We film. Filming, photography, editing, design and copy are all included. On-location shoots around Montréal, travel shoot days for brands further out, and a simple remote capture system in between. You approve, we produce.

Where do you work?

We are based in Montréal and serve brands across the United States and Canada. Shoots happen on location, on travel days, or through remote capture. Distance has never been the reason a feed went quiet.

How long until results?

Engagement and reach improve within 30 to 60 days of consistent posting. Follower growth and revenue impact build over three to six months. Social is compounding brand equity: the account you build this year sells for you every year after.

How much of our time does this take?

About an hour a month once we are running: one sitting to approve the calendar, plus a shoot day when one is scheduled. The onboarding kickoff is the only longer session, and after that the point is that you stop thinking about it.

How often will you post?

Cadence is set in strategy and matched to your platforms and industry, but the principle is daily presence rather than bursts. Consistency is what the algorithm rewards, and it is the single biggest difference between accounts that grow and accounts that stall.

What if we hate a post?

You see everything in the approval queue before it goes live, so nothing you dislike ever publishes. Feedback in the first month is normal and expected; it is how we tune the voice. By month two most clients are approving in a single scroll.

Do you handle negative comments and trolls?

Yes, that is part of community management. Genuine complaints get a fast, on-brand reply and, where useful, a move to DMs. Bad-faith trolling gets managed rather than fed. Anything that needs your judgement reaches you before we respond.
