Social Media Management · Vancouver, BC
You can have 10,000 followers and zero booked customers. Or 2,000 engaged followers from your target market who turn into consistent, high-value jobs. The difference is strategy.
Hello Search Marketing runs social media management for Vancouver businesses that want leads, not likes. We plan, create and publish your content, manage your community and track every lead back to the post that started it. Social builds trust between searches, and it works best connected to your website, Google and reviews.

Why most social media fails
Followers, likes and impressions look good in a report. They don't pay your team. Here's how the three common options compare.
Freelancers and templates
They post three times a week on the same templates, with no strategy and no business impact.
Traditional social media agencies
They optimize for engagement and impressions. Their dashboard looks good. Your revenue doesn't move.
Real social media systems
Built around one question: does this generate qualified leads or build authority that leads to more customers? This is what we build.
As a social media management agency, we measure qualified leads, booked customers, revenue and cost per customer. The silo problem makes it worse: a website agency, an SEO firm, an ads consultant and a social freelancer each see one piece. Nobody sees the full picture, so the messages clash and the money leaks.
The takeaway: not every post needs to sell. Every post needs to build trust, establish authority, generate leads or support the sales conversation.
Social media feeds search
Most buyers don't call from a post. They see you on Instagram or LinkedIn, then search your name on Google, check your reviews on Maps or ask ChatGPT about you. Then they decide. That's why our social media sits inside the same system as our local SEO and search work.

A qualified lead you can trace back to the post that started it.
Every post pushes people toward a search you can win. Every review and mention gives Google and AI tools more reasons to recommend you.
Why Hello Search Marketing
We've built social media systems for HVAC companies, plumbers, accountants, lawyers, e-commerce brands, SaaS companies and professional services firms across Vancouver and Canada.
01
Not every post needs to sell. But every post must build trust, establish authority, generate qualified leads or support your sales conversation.
02
Arpi leads strategy. Kris leads creative direction, messaging and content. You don't get a junior coordinator managing 50 clients.
03
Social builds authority and traffic. Your website converts it. Ads fill gaps. SEO compounds over time. One team runs it all.
04
We show the price upfront. No surprise invoices. You own your accounts and can leave anytime.
What's included
This isn't a content calendar service that posts three times a week and disappears. It's a complete system designed to make you the obvious choice in your market.
01 — Before the first post
Before we create a single post, we learn your business, your customer and your competitors. You get a social media strategy document with content themes, platform priorities and expected outcomes.
✓ Audit of your current social presence
✓ Target customer research: where they spend time and what builds trust
✓ Competitor analysis, gaps and positioning
✓ Content themes mapped to your customer's buying journey
✓ Measurable goals: qualified leads a month and conversions
How it works
Your social media launches in four weeks. You approve the content calendar before anything goes live. From month two, we publish, engage and review the numbers with you every month.

Brand visual language, video concepts and scripts, branded templates and your first founder content.
A 60-day content calendar you approve before anything goes live. All your profiles are optimized.
Publishing starts on schedule, with daily engagement and lead tracking from day one.
We publish 3–5 times a week per platform and review the numbers with you monthly. Once we know what resonates, optional paid social testing scales it.
What we measure

Customers and booked consultations from social, revenue attributed to social, and return on investment.
Share of voice against competitors, sentiment, founder brand growth, and saves and shares on authority content.
Engagement rate, click-through to your website, video completion and audience quality.
Your monthly report includes a dashboard, trends, a content performance breakdown, lead data and next month's recommendations.
Who this works for
Social media works when it's built for how your buyers decide. Here's its role, and typical results, by industry.
Local service businesses
Show past work, build local reputation and generate inbound leads, so you rely less on referrals.
Typical: 5–15 qualified leads a month within 3–6 months
Professional services
Position you as the go-to authority, so clients already trust you before the sales call.
Typical: 3–8 qualified B2B leads a month within 2–4 months
E-commerce and retail
Brand storytelling, community and user-generated content that bring customers back.
Typical: 15–40% higher repeat customer rate; 2–3x customer lifetime value
B2B software and SaaS
Credibility with decision-makers through thought leadership across long sales cycles.
Typical: 4–10 qualified B2B leads a month; 20–30% improvement in sales cycle
The ROI math
Social media costs money and takes strategy. The question is whether it returns more than it costs. Here's an example for an HVAC or plumbing company. Swap in your own numbers.
If social adds 5–10 qualified leads a month, or helps more of your existing leads convert, it pays for itself.

★★★★★
We went from 0 to 15 qualified leads per month in 3 months
“We were doing social media ourselves—posting randomly, getting nowhere. Switching to a real strategy changed everything. Within 3 months, we’re getting 12-15 qualified leads per month from social. The system feels predictable now instead of hoping referrals come in. Worth every dollar.”
Mike S., Owner · HVAC contractor, Vancouver
★★★★★
Social media finally feels connected to our actual business
“What impressed me most is they didn’t just post content—they connected social to our website, our email list, and our sales process. For the first time, I can see leads coming from social and turning into actual clients. The authority positioning helped us charge more too.”
Sarah T., Founder & CPA · Accounting firm, Lower Mainland
★★★★★
Our repeat customer rate jumped 25% in 6 months
“We thought social media was just for awareness. But the way they positioned our brand story and built community actually drove repeat purchases. Customer lifetime value increased 30%. The founder content made all the difference.”
James P., CEO · E-commerce brand, Canada
★★★★★
Finally, someone who understands B2B social media
“Most agencies treated our social like a B2C brand. These guys get that B2B decisions are different—longer cycles, multiple decision-makers, thought leadership matters. In 4 months, we’re generating 6-8 qualified B2B leads per month. Way better than hiring someone in-house.”

FAQ
Our social media management starts at $1,000/month. The final price depends on how many platforms you need, how much content you need each month and whether video production is included. You get a fixed monthly scope before you start, month-to-month, with no setup fees.
Most clients see meaningful leads within 2–4 months. Early signs show up sooner: better content, more engagement and audience growth within 4–8 weeks. You'll have benchmarks and early indicators in your first month.
It depends on the platform. Typically we post 5–7 times a week on TikTok, 3–4 times a week plus daily Stories on Instagram, and 2–3 times a week on LinkedIn and on Facebook. We post where your customers pay attention, not everywhere.
About one hour a month to approve the content calendar. We handle strategy, content, posting and community management. If you want to appear in founder videos, plan on 2–4 hours a month, but it's optional.
Yes. You see the 30- to 60-day calendar before anything is published, and you have final say on your brand voice. We also check in weekly on what's resonating.
Most social media fails because it's built around posting, not around qualified leads. We start with strategy: who we're reaching, why they care and what action we want. If the numbers stay flat after 3 months of optimization, we change the strategy with you.
Indirectly, yes. Social drives branded searches, website visits and Google reviews. Those signals help you show up on Google, Maps and in AI answers. That's why we run social media alongside our local SEO services.
Yes. We usually start with 2–3 months of organic testing to learn what resonates, then scale it with paid campaigns. Ad spend is separate from the management fee.
You keep everything: your accounts, content, strategy and brand guidelines. We give you full documentation and help with the transition, so you never start from zero.
