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.

A dead grid loses the sale

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.

Socials handled between tasks

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

Shift 01

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

Shift 02

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

Shift 03

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

Consistency compounds, virality doesn't

Shift 04

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

Service 01

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

Service 02

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

Service 03

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

Service 04

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

Growth & Engagement

Service 05

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

Profile & Bio Optimization

Service 06

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

Service 07

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

Process

From handoff to momentum in 30 days

Step 01

Audit & onboarding. Accounts, competitors and market reviewed. One kickoff captures your voice, your offers and your no-go zones.

Step 02

Strategy & pillars. You approve the platforms, content pillars, cadence and KPIs. Clarity before content.

Step 03

Production sprint. The first month of content filmed, designed, written and loaded into your approval queue.

Step 04

Launch & manage. Daily publishing, community management and real-time trend response.

Step 05

Analyze & double down. Winning formats get more frequency, losers get cut, and the account compounds.

Why Popnest Media

Why brands hand Popnest Media the keys

A real production team, not a scheduler

A Montréal-based team with in-house filming, editing and design. On-location shoots around Montréal and travel shoot days anywhere the work calls for.

Production power most agencies can't match

Our AI-augmented pipeline produces platform-native content at a volume that would take triple the headcount elsewhere, on the same retainer.

Restaurant-hardened

Montréal is one of the most competitive restaurant markets in North America, and we keep those feeds hot seven days a week. Your industry is a layup.

Social that feeds search

Winning content gets repurposed into the surfaces that drive SEO and AI visibility. One content investment, multiple surfaces.

Compared honestly

What you get, honestly compared

FAQ

Social media management, answered straight

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.

Cost depends on how many platforms you need, how much video we produce, and how often your brand posts. We scope every retainer after a free strategy call.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
