Our Methodology

In 2016, we founded the Keep Social Media Social™  (KSMS) mission, a global movement to reimagine social media for its original intended purpose of mediating authentic connection and bringing people together. That big-picture mission soon morphed into practical, strategic methodology that social media managers, marketers and business leaders can use to level-up their brand’s social media presence.

Keep Social Media Social™
Methodology

Social media wasn't just built up to serve ads and promote products and services. That’s soo 2010s. We take a more early-2000s approach (yes, we’re dating ourselves). An approach that reimagines social media for its original intended purpose of mediating authentic connection between real people—and that’s what our methodology is designed to accomplish for agencies and businesses!
