Social & Owned Media Integration
You own your audience relationships, not the platforms. Social becomes a discovery engine that feeds owned channels rather than a dependency that controls your reach. Algorithm changes become inconveniences, not catastrophes.
The Challenge
Why This Matters
SparkToro research shows Facebook organic reach declined 74% between 2018 and 2023. LinkedIn fell 52%. The pattern repeats every platform cycle: you build audience, the platform monetizes your access to that audience, your organic reach declines, you pay to reach followers you already earned. Brands that spent years building 100,000 LinkedIn followers now reach 5,000 of them organically.
You cannot email your Instagram followers. You cannot export your TikTok audience. When the algorithm changes or the platform declines, rented audiences disappear. The brands that survive platform shifts convert social followers to email subscribers at 2-5% monthly. The brands that collapse treated platform metrics as business assets and discovered they were not.
The Process
How It Works
Social integration follows a four-phase transition from platform dependency to owned audience. Each phase has specific deliverables and progression criteria.
| Phase | What We Do | Deliverables | Checkpoint |
|---|---|---|---|
Phase 1: Platform Audit Week 1-2 | We analyze your current social presence, engagement patterns, and critically: conversion to owned channels | platform performance analysis, conversion baseline, dependency risk assessment | current state documented before strategy design |
Phase 2: Integration Architecture Week 3-5 | We design the content origin strategy and conversion paths | owned-first content calendar, platform adaptation guidelines, conversion funnel design | you approve content strategy before implementation |
Phase 3: Transition Implementation Week 6-12 | We shift content creation to owned-first model and implement conversion paths | active conversion funnels, platform-adapted content, initial conversion data | conversion rate above 2% before full transition |
Phase 4: Optimization & Hedging Ongoing | We optimize conversion rates and maintain platform diversification | monthly conversion reports, quarterly platform rebalancing, ongoing content adaptation | platform allocation adjusted when any single platform exceeds 40% of reach |
Our Capabilities
Integration Program Components
Multi-Platform Distribution Architecture
Design efficient distribution systems that adapt owned content for each platform's native format. One content piece, multiple platform-native adaptations. Reduce per-platform production time while maintaining platform-appropriate presentation.
Conversion Path Engineering
Build systematic conversion from social follower to email subscriber to engaged community member. Includes lead magnet strategy, bio optimization, story/post CTA design, and landing page optimization. Target 3-5% monthly conversion of engaged followers.
Content Amplification Systems
Use social for discovery and reach without building dependency. Content originates on owned channels; social amplifies distribution. When social algorithms change, owned content remains accessible; only amplification requires adaptation.
Integrated Analytics
Track the full path from social engagement to owned audience to business outcome. Most analytics stop at platform metrics. We connect social activity to email signups, email engagement to sales pipeline, creating complete attribution.
