The business question

More data doesn't always mean more clarity.

Paid platforms can tell you what happened: impressions, clicks, CTR, CPM, conversions, ROAS.

But leadership needs to know:

  • Why did it happen?
  • What drives value?
  • Where is performance breaking down?
  • Are we investing in the right platforms, audiences and creative?
  • What should we test? Stop? Invest more in?

Before you invest more, understand what's already happening.

Social Media Strategic Assessments

Clarity for what's working. Strategy for what comes next.

These are experienced, objective strategic assessments—not automated audits. Every engagement is reviewed personally, interpreted in the context of your business, and delivered as a prioritized point of view you can act on.

Every assessment includes a professionally developed strategic deliverable with prioritized findings, recommendations and clear next steps.

Questions

Before you begin.

What access do you need?
Requirements depend on the scope of the assessment. An initial inquiry never requires passwords. After engagement, I'll provide clear instructions for securely sharing the relevant reporting, exports or appropriate platform access.
Is this only for paid social?
No. The Social Snapshot focuses primarily on organic social. The Strategic Assessment and Executive Advisory are paid-social-forward and evaluate paid performance within the broader social ecosystem.
Do you manage social media or campaigns?
These engagements are strategic advisory and assessment services rather than ongoing social media management. Additional strategic advisory can be scoped separately when appropriate.
What happens after the assessment?
You receive prioritized findings, recommendations and clear next steps. Executive Advisory clients also receive a 60-minute strategy session and a post-session action summary.
How long does it take?
Typical turnaround is 5–7 business days after the required information and access have been received.
