EQUALLY IMPORTANT
We are probably not the right fit if...
You need results in 30 days. Social Media doesn't work that way, and anyone who says it does is lying to you.
You want to own the strategy internally and outsource only execution. We work as strategic partners, not vendors.
Your budget is under $2,000/month. We can't do our best work at that level.
The brands we work best with are past the “let’s try Social Media” phase. They know it works. They want it done properly.
Cologne construction & home services is a different game.
We’ve run Social Media here. We know what it takes.
72,000 Cologne tradespeople rely on word-of-mouth. You don't have to.
Cologne's construction and home services sector is rich with opportunity but digitally fragmented. Most businesses compete on reputation alone, leaving the Google Local Pack and social proof to faster-moving competitors. The €3,000 monthly marketing budget is standard, but it's rarely spent strategically. Businesses that invest in social media and review generation are already capturing market share from those stuck in word-of-mouth dependency.
The 3 places Cologne construction & home services brands leave revenue on the table
Every engagement starts with a structured audit. These patterns show up in 9 out of 10 construction & home services brands we assess — regardless of size or previous agency history.
Don’t take our word for it.Here’s what we actually delivered.
Strong reputation locally, but losing jobs to newer competitors with polished Instagram feeds and higher Google ratings. Relying 90% on word-of-mouth; no systematic way to generate reviews or reach homeowners searching online. Facebook page posted twice yearly, Instagram dormant.
Built weekly content calendar showcasing completed renovations, before-afters, and team spotlights tailored to Cologne homeowners' needs (energy efficiency, modern aesthetics, safety).

You shouldn’t have to wonder what your agency is doing with your money.
Every Friday, you get a Loom from your strategist. Not a report — a walkthrough. What changed, what we’re doing about it, what to expect next week. Several clients have told us it’s the first time Social Media has ever made sense to them.
From audit to measurable growth, step by step
Within 90 days, you'll have a repeatable system generating 15–25 qualified leads per month from social media and local search, backed by 40+ verified reviews and a visible brand presence across Cologne. You'll know exactly which channels drive jobs and how much each lead costs—and you'll have a team (or system) that keeps the pipeline full without daily stress.
Audit & Strategy
We assess your current social presence, Google Local profile, review baseline, and competitive landscape in Cologne. We identify which channels your ideal customer uses most and where your biggest quick wins are. This reveals why competitors are visible and you're not.
Profile Optimization & Setup
We optimize your Google Business Profile, Instagram, and Facebook with local Cologne keywords, high-conversion bios, and service showcases. We set up automated review request systems so you're generating social proof every month, not just when you remember.
Content Creation & Calendar
We build a 12-week content calendar aligned to your service cycles and local market. Content showcases real projects, before-afters, team stories, and local Cologne insights. Each post has a clear purpose: authority, trust, or conversion. We produce 8–12 posts monthly plus paid amplification strategy.
Community & Conversion Setup
We establish messaging workflows (DM response automation, lead qualification), set up lead capture forms on Instagram and Facebook, and create a nurture sequence for warm leads. Your social platforms now actively convert followers into inquiries.
Launch, Monitor & Optimize
Content goes live, paid campaigns start, and we monitor weekly performance. We track lead source attribution, cost-per-lead, and conversion rates. Every 2 weeks, we adjust based on data—doubling down on what converts, cutting what doesn't. You're part of every optimization decision.
The honest difference
We’re not going to call other agencies bad. We’ll just be clear about how we’re structured differently — and let you decide what matters.

The questions founders actually ask us
Not the FAQ we wrote. The questions from real first calls.
How is Omakaase different from other social media agencies in Cologne?
Most social media agencies are generalists—they create pretty posts for every industry. We specialize in construction & home services. We know your customer (busy homeowners in Cologne looking for trust), your sales cycle (short for repairs, longer for renovations), and what actually converts (before-afters, reviews, local proof). We've built repeatable systems for electrical contractors, plumbers, HVAC specialists, and renovators. That focus means faster results, better attribution, and higher ROI than generic approaches.
I post occasionally on Instagram. Why do I need an agency if I'm already on social?
Posting is not a strategy. Consistency + purpose + measurement = strategy. Most tradespeople post when they remember (sporadic), without a clear goal (awareness vs. conversion), and never check if it drove jobs (no attribution). Our clients post 2–3x weekly with clear conversion hooks, and we track every lead back to source. The difference: you go from social media as a hobby to social media as a lead-generation machine.
What if I don't have a lot of content to share—nice photos, before-afters, etc.?
That's what we solve for. Part of our service is content direction and production. We work with your team to capture project photos during work, create short educational videos (maintenance tips, seasonal prep), and feature your team. You don't need a professional photographer—phone cameras + our editing and strategy = compelling content. We've built full calendars from clients with zero existing asset library.
How long until I see results?
Quick wins (optimized profiles, first reviews): 2–4 weeks. Meaningful lead volume (8–15/month): 8–12 weeks. Full momentum (18–25/month, compounding reviews, top Local Pack placement): 16–20 weeks. These are realistic. Agencies promising faster results are often just spending your budget on ads without building sustainable systems.
What's the typical cost? Does it fit my €3,000 monthly budget?
Our retainer for construction & home services clients in Cologne ranges €2,000–€4,500/month depending on scope (content production, paid media, review management, strategy). If €3,000 is your total marketing budget, we can work within that—we'd prioritize organic social + local SEO + reviews first, and add paid media only after you're seeing ROI. Most clients reallocate existing budget (from non-converting Google Ads, for example) rather than add cost.
