Social media marketing is the ongoing work of building and engaging an audience on platforms such as Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn and YouTube through planned content, community management and collaborations, so that followers become enquiries, footfall and customers. It is different from paid ads: ads buy attention for a day, while social content earns an audience that keeps paying back. At gaa-tha social media is planned backwards from your business calendar — launches, festive seasons, sale periods, exhibitions — and forward from what your audience already watches. Reels, carousels, statics and copy are produced by one in-house team with AI-assisted production where it helps, and every month is reported against reach, engagement, profile visits and the clicks or footfall that matter to you. ## What's included - Platform strategy — which of Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn and YouTube deserve effort, and what each is for - Content pillars, tone of voice and a monthly content calendar planned around launches and seasons - Posts, carousels, statics and reels produced in-house, including scripting, shooting or AI ad shoots and editing - Copywriting, captions, hashtags and hooks in English, Hindi or Gujarati as needed - Community management — replies to comments and DMs within agreed hours, with escalation rules - Page collaborations and cross-posting with partner brands, creators and local pages - Profile optimisation — bio, highlights, link-in-bio, LinkedIn company page sections - Trend and format monitoring so the calendar can react within the month - Monthly report on reach, engagement, follower growth, profile visits and website clicks or footfall ## How we work 1. **Audit and strategy** — We review your current profiles, best-performing content and competitors, then set the platforms, pillars, posting cadence and the one number each platform is run against. 2. **Calendar and briefs** — A monthly calendar is built around your launches, seasons and sales goals, with a brief for every reel, carousel and post before production starts. 3. **Production** — Content is shot, designed, written and edited in batches by the in-house team — on-ground shoots, AI ad shoots or a mix — and sent for approval in one round. 4. **Publish and engage** — Posts go out on schedule, comments and DMs are handled within agreed hours, and collaborations with partner pages and creators are coordinated. 5. **Report and adjust** — A monthly report shows what moved reach, saves, profile visits and clicks; the next calendar is adjusted around what worked. ## Deliverables - Social media strategy and content pillars document - Monthly content calendar with approved briefs - Finished reels, carousels, statics and captions each month - Optimised profiles (bio, highlights, LinkedIn page sections) - Community management log and DM reply templates - Monthly performance report with next-month recommendations ## Tools & platforms Meta Business Suite, Instagram Insights, LinkedIn Page Analytics, YouTube Studio, Canva, Adobe Premiere Pro, CapCut, Google Sheets ## Pricing model Monthly retainer scoped to the number of platforms and the volume of reels, carousels and posts; any boosting or paid promotion is paid by you directly to the platform. ## Case studies - [CDS Stores](https://gaa-tha.com/work/cds-stores): CDS Stores: year-round Meta campaigns, city-wide outdoor and in-store marketing for a gifting retailer. - [Ghanshyam Snacks](https://gaa-tha.com/work/ghanshyam-snacks): Ghanshyam Snacks: brand strategy, lead and traffic campaigns, and the founder's personal brand. - [Kitcoz](https://gaa-tha.com/work/kitcoz): Kitcoz: a D2C skincare brand built and grown end to end — identity, Shopify, tracking and Meta ads. ## White-label social media management for US and UK agencies US and UK agencies white-label our social media management and brands hire us directly: calendars, design, reels, captions in US or UK English, scheduling and community management in your business hours. - Monthly calendars in your approval tool - Design and reels in the client's brand kit - Captions in US or UK English - Branded monthly reports - US business hours — calls, Slack and launches in your day - NDA signed before the brief - Unbranded for agencies; no contact with your clients - Non-solicitation of your clients in writing - Paid pilot before any retainer - Pay by bank wire (SWIFT), PayPal or card (Stripe) Book an intro call: https://gaa-tha.com/?service=social-media-marketing#contact · Email: digimarketing@gaa-tha.com · All outsourcing services: https://gaa-tha.com/services/outsourcing ## Frequently asked questions ### What does a social media marketing agency do? A social media marketing agency plans, produces, publishes and reports on a brand's content across platforms such as Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn and YouTube, and manages the comments and messages that content generates. gaa-tha runs this as a monthly retainer with one in-house team for strategy, shooting, design, editing and reporting. ### How many posts a month do we need? Enough to stay consistent, not enough to burn out the team or the audience. For most brands that is three to five reels and eight to twelve feed posts a month on the primary platform, with LinkedIn at two to three posts a week for B2B. We set the cadence from your goals and content sources during onboarding rather than a fixed package. ### Which platform should we start with? Instagram for retail, D2C, food, beauty, real estate and most consumer brands in India; LinkedIn for manufacturers, exporters and B2B services; YouTube when your product needs longer explanation or demonstration. Facebook still matters for tier-2 and tier-3 audiences and for older buyers. We usually recommend doing one platform properly before adding a second. ### Do you shoot the content or do we need to send footage? We shoot it. On-ground shoots at your store, factory or site are planned monthly, and AI ad shoots cover product visuals when a physical shoot is impractical. Founders who want to appear on camera get scripts and direction; those who do not can use an AI clone with consent. ### How do you measure whether social media is working? By one primary metric per objective, agreed upfront: reach and follower growth for awareness, saves, shares and profile visits for consideration, and website clicks, WhatsApp enquiries or store footfall for revenue. Likes and follower counts are tracked as diagnostics, never as the goal. ### Will you reply to comments and DMs? Yes. Community management is part of the retainer, with agreed response hours, reply templates for common questions and an escalation rule so pricing, complaints and leads reach your team the same day. ### Do we still need ads if we do organic social media? Usually yes, in a small way. Organic content builds trust and an audience; a modest boosting or Meta ads budget makes the best content reach people who do not follow you yet. The two are planned together so the best-performing reels become ads. ### How long before social media shows results? Consistent engagement and profile-visit growth usually show within the first two to three months; enquiries and footfall follow once the audience and the content formats have settled. Social media compounds, which is why it runs as a monthly retainer rather than a one-off campaign. ### Can a US agency outsource social media management to India? Yes. gaa-tha provides white-label social media management for US and UK agencies, working in your approval tool, writing in US or UK English and replying to comments during US business hours. ### Do you manage social media for brands outside India? Yes. Our international work includes Instagram content for New Rave, a trading-card and hobbies retailer in Canada. ## Related services - [Meta Ads Agency](https://gaa-tha.com/services/meta-ads-agency): Facebook and Instagram ads built around your margins, reported to the rupee. - [Influencer & UGC Marketing](https://gaa-tha.com/services/influencer-ugc-marketing): Creators and communities your audience already trusts — from local city influencers to category creators. - [Marketing Strategy & Positioning](https://gaa-tha.com/services/marketing-strategy): Insight before a single pixel — who you serve, why you win, and what success looks like in numbers. - [Reels & Short-form Video](https://gaa-tha.com/services/reels-short-form-video): Short-form built to be re-watched — hooks in the first second, retention by design. --- **About gaa-tha** — gaa-tha is a storytelling-led digital marketing, branding, ecommerce, technology and AI agency founded in Gujarat, India in 2024.
