We do our best work for one kind of client.

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.
Minneapolis fitness & wellness is a different game.
We’ve run Social Media here. We know what it takes.
Your social media strategy is costing you class bookings.
Minneapolis's fitness market is fragmented: established gyms dominate search, while boutique studios and independent trainers fight for visibility on Instagram and TikTok. Class bookings spike with season changes, but studios without diversified acquisition channels watch revenue plummet in off-peak months. Social media reach has flattened across the industry; organic-only strategies no longer drive reliable lead volume. Studios that combine paid social, community engagement, and SEO-friendly content capture disproportionate market share.
The 3 places Minneapolis fitness & wellness brands leave revenue on the table
Every engagement starts with a structured audit. These patterns show up in 9 out of 10 fitness & wellness brands we assess — regardless of size or previous agency history.
Don’t take our word for it.Here’s what we actually delivered.
Strong organic Instagram following (4,200 followers) but only 12–18 class bookings per month. Studio relied entirely on Instagram Stories and grid posts; no paid strategy, no local search presence. Peak season (Jan–Mar) brought 35 bookings, but April–August dropped to 8–10/month, creating cash flow chaos.
Built segmented paid campaigns on Instagram Reels + TikTok targeting "beginner yoga Minneapolis" and "Pilates near me" searchers, with lookalike audiences from existing email list.

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 6 months, your social media channels become a predictable, data-driven acquisition engine that fills classes year-round, reduces seasonal churn, and gives you the brand visibility to compete with established studios. You'll understand your cost per booking, which campaigns drive real revenue, and how to scale what works.
Audit & Competitive Map
We analyze your current social channels, content performance, and local competitor strategy across Instagram, TikTok, and Google. We identify which established gyms are capturing your audience and where your content gaps are. You'll see exactly where you rank in the Minneapolis fitness market conversation.
Strategy & Content Pillars
We define your audience segments (new members, existing class loyalists, off-peak browsers) and create a 90-day content calendar mixing community engagement, trainer spotlights, and class conversion content. Each post has a measurable booking or retention goal tied to your seasonal revenue targets.
Paid Social + Retargeting Setup
We build segmented paid campaigns on Instagram, TikTok, and Google to fill your booking pipeline during off-peak months and accelerate new member acquisition. Retargeting sequences convert warm social followers into class bookings. We set up UTM tracking so you see exactly which campaigns drive revenue.
Community & Engagement Execution
We launch daily community management: responding to DMs, fostering member testimonials, and creating shareable success stories. We identify and nurture your brand advocates to amplify organic reach. Every interaction moves people closer to booking or renewing.
Monthly Optimization & Reporting
Every month, we analyze booking attribution, cost per lead, and engagement trends. We kill underperforming content, double down on what converts, and adjust paid spend based on seasonal demand forecasts. You always know your ROI by channel and campaign.
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 content calendar process changed how our whole team thinks about marketing. We're telling a story now — not just filling a grid to look active.”

“They mapped our content to every stage of the buyer journey. That sounds basic — but nobody had done it for us before. The results were immediate.”

The questions founders actually ask us
Not the FAQ we wrote. The questions from real first calls.
How is this different from just running ads ourselves or hiring a social media VA?
A VA posts content and a DIY ad manager spends budget, but neither measures what actually drives bookings. We combine strategy (audience segmentation, seasonal forecasting, conversion optimization), execution (daily community management, paid campaigns), and analytics (attribution tracking, ROI reporting). You get a revenue-focused operation, not just content calendar activity.
What if we're a brand-new studio with almost no followers?
That's actually our sweet spot. We don't rely on existing audience size; we build audience through paid acquisition and community engagement from day one. New studios see the fastest ROI because we're not fighting legacy follower expectations. Paid social + local targeting works better with a clean slate than organic growth alone.
How long before we see new class bookings?
Paid campaigns typically generate first bookings within 2–3 weeks of launch. Community engagement shows impact within 4–6 weeks. Full compound effect (paid + organic + retargeting + referral amplification) shows significant monthly lift by Month 3. We track weekly so you see incremental progress, not just 30-day snapshots.
Do you manage our Instagram, TikTok, and other channels directly?
Yes. We handle strategy, content creation and curation, daily posting, community management (DMs, comments, stories), paid ad setup and optimization, and analytics. You retain full account ownership and login. Weekly check-ins keep you informed. You're not dependent on us; we're transparently building your assets.
What's included in your retainer, and why is it better than paying per-post or per-campaign?
Retainers ($1,800–$4,500/mo typical for fitness studios) include strategy, 20–30 posts/month, community management, paid campaign management, and monthly reporting. This model works because we optimize continuously based on real data, not just execute disconnected campaigns. You get compounding results—each month builds on learnings from the last.
