Built for performance (dev + analytics baked in)
Most social programs stop at posts. We connect social to your website and pipeline so you can see what moves leads and revenue, then improve quickly—so you stop guessing and start scaling what works. Want to see where you stand today? Ask for a quick tracking and attribution audit.
GA4 and CRM attribution

- We implement clean GA4 event tracking such as form_submit, generate_lead, and purchase with cross-domain measurement when needed, then connect Meta or TikTok server-side events with CAPI to reduce loss from blockers
- UTMs and click IDs are captured in hidden form fields and passed into your CRM such as HubSpot or Salesforce, so every contact and deal shows original source, latest touch, and social-assisted conversions. Monthly reports include assisted conversions and pipeline impact by platform, campaign, and post ID
- Prefer a simple plan first? We’ll map your ideal tracking setup and send a step-by-step implementation checklist.
UTM standards and governance
- A simple, strict naming convention keeps data comparable, for example utm_source=instagram or linkedin, utm_medium=social_paid or social_organic, utm_campaign=launch_q3_2026, utm_content=reel_hookA_thumb2
- We provide a shareable UTM builder and auto-append UTMs from your scheduling tools, with QA checks to prevent case mismatches and rogue tags
- We’ll train your team in 30 minutes and hand off a UTM playbook they can use immediately.
Campaign specific WordPress landing pages
- We build fast, lightweight landing page templates in WordPress without bloated page builders, tailored to each offer and audience. Forms are prefilled with hidden UTM fields, and content can swap by platform to improve message match
- Social-ready metadata such as OG tags and Twitter cards, mobile-first layouts, and accessible components are standard to lift conversion rates in in-app browsers
- Want to see speed and message match in action? We’ll demo a live campaign page and share before/after results.
Core Web Vitals and site speed for social traffic
- Social clicks are mostly mobile and often open in in-app browsers. We target LCP under 2.5s, minimize CLS and INP, use AVIF or WebP, lazy load below-the-fold media, inline critical CSS, and preload hero assets
- Caching is configured to ignore UTM parameters so landing pages stay cacheable and fast, even under heavy campaign traffic
- Get a no-obligation performance snapshot of your top social landing pages with specific fixes and quick wins.

A/B testing across creative and on-site UX
- We test thumbnails, first three-second hooks, captions, and CTAs with native platform experiments where available, then scale winners in paid
- On-site, we test landing page variants with VWO, Convert, or a lightweight server-side harness. Each test has a hypothesis, a primary KPI such as CVR or lead quality, sample size thresholds, and a public test log so learnings compound
- We’ll build a 90-day testing roadmap tied to your revenue targets and stand up the first test in week one.

WordPress + social, working together
Your website should fuel your social channels. We turn WordPress into the hub that feeds your feeds and captures results, so every cornerstone page, blog, FAQ, event, and offer becomes social content with clear paths back to conversion-ready pages. If your feeds feel starved or disconnected from revenue, we’ll bridge the gap.
Content repurposing made systematic
- Blog to carousels, Reels, and Shorts: We distill long-form posts into platform-native assets, such as a 7 slide Instagram or LinkedIn carousel, a 30 second Reel or Short with hook, value, and CTA, and a 5 post X thread, each pointing to the full article. For fast, on-brand drafting, explore our AI Content Creation for WordPress.
- FAQs to micro posts: We structure FAQs in WordPress so each question can spawn quick hits like one tip, one visual, one CTA posts, Stories, and LinkedIn snippets. The page stays the source of truth
- Want a quick win? Ask for a 30‑day content-to-social map based on your top pages.
Metadata that makes shares look great and get found
- Open Graph and Twitter Cards: Per-post titles, descriptions, and platform-specific images in square, 4:5, and 16:9, so every share previews well
- Schema for context: Article, FAQ, Event, Product, and VideoObject schema in JSON-LD to reinforce credibility
- Social SEO built in: Required alt text and captions, keyword and hashtag banks by topic, geotag guidance, clean URLs, and UTM hygiene, so performance is measurable in GA4 and your CRM, not just in-app
- Not sure how your links look now? We’ll run a quick share-preview and schema audit and fix the gaps.
Reusable Gutenberg blocks for high-converting social landing pages

- Our block library lets you spin up distraction-free pages in minutes: no-nav headers, hook plus proof plus offer sections, UGC and review grids, FAQ accordions, sticky CTAs, one tap call or SMS, and lightweight forms
- Blocks are mobile-first, fast, and prewired for tracking with UTMs and events, with optional dynamic OG images for strong previews
- We can launch a starter social landing page for your next campaign so you can see lift fast.

Editorial workflows that keep teams aligned

- Central asset libraries: Organized media by campaign or topic, brand guardrails for logos, color, and type, and rights management
- Post templates: Ready-to-use structures for Announcements, How-tos, Before and After, Event reminders, and Testimonials with hook formulas, character counts, aspect ratios, and CTA guidance per platform
- We’ll set up roles, notifications, and templates in one onboarding session so your team can publish confidently.
Event and promo pages built for social traffic
- Event schema, add-to-calendar buttons, dynamic OG images, maps and directions, parking info, and clear schedules increase taps and attendance
- Promo pages load fast, highlight the offer above the fold, use countdown timers and sticky CTAs, and support one click checkout or lead capture to reduce drop-off on mobile
- Planning a launch? We’ll blueprint the page, tracking, and retargeting so paid and organic both convert.

AI-assisted, human-edited content workflow
We use AI where it speeds things up, and people where it matters. AI helps with ideas, variations, and first drafts. Editors shape the voice, verify claims, and keep posts on brand and compliant—so you get faster turnaround without sacrificing accuracy or brand safety. Want to see it on your brand? Ask us for a sample prompt pack and 10‑post content map. For our full approach, see AI Social Media Content.
How it works
- Inputs that steer outputs: We build a prompt library tied to your style guide, product taxonomy, do and don’t lists, legal disclaimers, and approved sources. Prompts are platform and objective specific, for example LinkedIn thought leadership vs TikTok how to (result: fewer rewrites and consistent voice across channels)
- AI assisted creation: Generate topic maps, hooks, caption variants by platform, hashtag sets, and first-draft alt text and social SEO keywords. For visuals, we use AI for moodboards and copy overlays, not to replace original creative (result: more ideas, faster, without losing your brand look)
- Human editing for voice and compliance: Editors refine narrative and tone, connect posts to active campaigns, add brand context, and apply any regulatory guidance (result: posts that sound like you and pass internal review)
Content QA that prevents errors
Every post passes a checklist before it leaves draft:
- Facts, stats, and claims linked to approved sources or removed
- Names, titles, and product specs verified, dates and numbers cross-checked
- Required disclaimers included, sensitive topics pre-approved
- Accessibility review with clear language, refined alt text, and captions or subtitles
- Link hygiene: UTMs added, destinations tested, no link shorteners unless approved
- Rights and attribution confirmed for all assets
- Data safety: We never send confidential or customer data to third-party AI without permission, and we use private or zero-retention models when needed
Want this checklist built into your workflow? We’ll configure it in your tools during onboarding.
Asset management and approvals
- Version control in your tools, such as Airtable, Notion, Google Drive, ClickUp, or your DAM
- Single source of truth content calendar with statuses from Brief to Scheduled
- Inline comments, change history, and final asset naming conventions
- Scheduling via your stack, such as Meta Business Suite, Later, or Sprout
We plug into your process (Slack, Teams, email) and train your team so approvals don’t bottleneck publishing.
Continuous learning
- Monthly updates to prompts and voice guide based on performance
- Snippet library to repurpose blogs and landing pages into threads, carousels, and scripts for Reels or Shorts
Each month performs better than the last because the system itself improves. This creation workflow pairs with clear governance. Here’s how we protect your brand once content is live. Ready to put this in motion? Book a quick planning call at https://stlcodescape.com/, email jc@stlcodescape.com, or call 314-657-7421.
Community management, governance, and brand safety
Your social channels touch customer service, PR, and sales. We manage them with clear rules, fast responses, and documented accountability, so your team can move confidently—and your brand stays protected. If you don’t have a governance framework in place, we’ll stand one up in week one and align it with your existing support and legal workflows.

Response SLAs
- Standard inquiries: same business day response during agreed business hours, Central Time
- Priority issues such as safety concerns, outages, legal or compliance flags, and viral negative posts: target first response within 2 hours during business hours, within 12 hours off-hours. We customize SLAs by plan and document them in your governance runbook
- We classify messages on intake, tag them for reporting, and track resolution so you can see deflections, win-backs, and volume by topic
- Optional add-ons: extended after-hours coverage and holiday monitoring
Want our SLA matrix? Ask for a sample in your intro call.
Escalation paths and customer service handoffs
- Defined contacts for Community Manager to Client POC to Customer Support to Legal or Compliance to Executive or PR
- Clear handoff rules for what stays in social, what moves to support with a ticket in your help desk, and when to switch to DM, email, or phone
- Pre-approved response libraries and decision trees reduce back-and-forth and keep tone on brand
- We integrate with tools like Zendesk, HubSpot, Freshdesk, or Salesforce so nothing slips through
We can also help score and prioritize incoming leads and tickets with AI so urgent conversations get routed faster.
During onboarding, we map your org chart to escalation levels and test it with sample scenarios.
Crisis playbook
- Triggers include spikes in negative sentiment, multiple similar complaints in a short window, credible safety or legal claims, or media pickup
- Actions include pausing scheduled posts, assembling the response team, activating holding statements, designating a single source of truth such as a landing page or pinned post, and setting an update cadence
- Approvals specify who signs off on public statements and when Legal or PR must review
- Templates cover outages, recalls, policy changes, and sensitive topics, plus a checklist for post-crisis debrief
We run periodic tabletop drills to keep the muscle memory fresh and update the playbook as your products and policies evolve.
Comment moderation and scam mitigation
- House rules: we hide or remove content that is abusive, hateful, doxxing, pornographic, or clear spam. We do not delete critical feedback that follows community guidelines—we address it
- Scam defense: keyword and link filters, impersonation takedowns, and rapid response to phishing or bot spam
- Security: role-based access, 2FA on all accounts, audited permissions, and immediate deprovisioning for staff changes
- Channel hygiene: platform-native moderation tools, profanity filters, and an escalation log for removed content
- Add-on: executive account protection and VIP monitoring
Social listening and competitive insight
- Always-on monitoring for brand and executive mentions, product names, and common misspellings across major platforms and the open web
- Trend and sentiment tracking to surface FAQs, content ideas, and potential issues early

All activity is logged, summarized in your monthly dashboard, and tied to impact where possible, such as support deflections, saved revenue, and resolved complaints.

Boosted posts and paid social support
Organic and paid should amplify each other. We turn your best organic posts into targeted boosts and run structured paid campaigns that extend reach, retarget site visitors, and drive measurable actions on your website. When something hits organically, we scale it with smart spend; when it doesn’t, we test and iterate—so every dollar works harder. Ready to see what a winning post can do with the right push? Let’s plan a quick pilot.

We rotate creative based on fatigue, frequency, and engagement to keep performance fresh
- Budgeting and pacing: objective-based budget recommendations across awareness, traffic, and leads or sales; funnel allocation; learning phase planning; and pacing rules to avoid spikes or stalls. We advise when to boost a winner vs. create a dedicated ad set to protect efficiency

Monthly optimizations tied to CPC, CTR, CPA or CPL, ROAS where applicable, audience refinement, bid strategy updates, and new tests—with clear reporting you can act on

If your goals include qualified traffic, form fills, booked demos, ecommerce revenue, or foot-traffic conversions, we align your social program with those targets and attribute results back to your WordPress site. If that sounds like you, let’s talk about a plan that moves the needle—schedule a quick discovery call or email jc@stlcodescape.com.
We also collaborate with agencies in two ways:
- White label: We operate under your brand, join your workflows, and present client deliverables as your team (NDA-friendly, seamless handoffs)
- Development partner: We slot in as the technical and social arm for branding, PR, and design shops, building landing pages, tracking, and analytics while co-presenting strategy

Tools and integrations
The right stack makes social accountable to business outcomes. We plug into your approved tools or provide a lightweight, secure setup your team can own after handoff. Here’s how we connect the dots. Want to see this working with your stack? Ask for a quick, no-pressure tooling walkthrough.
Analytics and tracking
- GA4: clean events and conversions for social traffic, fixed channel groupings for Organic vs Paid Social, and cross-domain tracking for WordPress plus checkout or booking flows
- Google Tag Manager: centralized pixel management for Meta, LinkedIn, TikTok, and Google or YouTube with clear naming, environments, and version control. Consent mode and server-side tagging available when needed
- UTM governance: a shared naming convention, link templates, and auto-appended parameters in your scheduler so every post or ad ties back to the right campaign in GA4 and your CRM
Next step: Want to tighten attribution? Ask for a GA4/UTM health check and our UTM naming template. Or read how we handle setup in Can you set up Google Analytics?
Scheduling and workflow
- Content calendars and approvals in client-approved tools, such as Airtable, Notion, Asana, Monday, or similar. We set roles, SLAs, and an approval path that keeps legal and brand reviews on schedule
- Asset management using your preferred storage, such as Google Drive, Dropbox, or SharePoint with folder standards, file naming, alt text and caption fields, and version history. If you use a scheduler, such as Buffer, Later, Sprout, or Meta Business Suite, we configure permissions and audit logs
Next step: We can stand up a pilot calendar in your tool of choice and baseline your workflow in one working session.
Ad platforms and conversion APIs
- Platform coverage: Meta for Facebook and Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, and YouTube. We handle account and business manager setup, pixel tags, events, catalogs, and offline conversions where applicable
- Conversion APIs: Meta Conversions API via server-side GTM or secure WordPress integration, TikTok Events API, LinkedIn Offline Conversions, and Google or YouTube Enhanced Conversions for leads, implemented with clear data mapping and privacy controls
Next step: Get a fast pixel/CAPI audit. We’ll outline gaps, fix misfiring events, and verify server-side signals. For deeper connections across tools, explore our AI Integrations.
CRM and data integration
- HubSpot and Salesforce: we pass form and chat leads with full UTM strings, original source, campaign, ad set, and creative. We map fields, set dedupe rules, and update lifecycle stages so sales knows what came from social
- Middleware when needed: Zapier, Make, or native webhooks to bridge gaps between your site, social platforms, and CRM, documented, tested, and monitored
Next step: We’ll run a test lead from ad click to CRM so you can see exactly what sales receives. Need advanced routing or enrichment? See our AI Integrations.
Reporting and dashboards
- Looker Studio dashboards, or your BI of choice, blending GA4, platform insights, and CRM data. Standardized KPIs by platform, plus site outcomes such as sessions, conversions, assisted conversions, and landing page performance
- Monthly narrative reporting that explains what we tested, what we learned, and what we’re changing next, delivered with the dashboard for context
Next step: Ask for a sample dashboard and KPI glossary to preview how we’ll report on what matters.
Every connection is documented with access controls, 2FA, and a change log, so you’re never locked out or left guessing. Ready to connect the dots for your team? Email jc@stlcodescape.com or call 314-657-7421 to schedule a 20-minute stack review.
How pricing works
Every social program we run is custom. Your monthly retainer reflects the mix of channels, content, and accountability your goals require—not a one-size package. We’ll co-scope the plan with you, show clear line‑item pricing, and right‑size it to the outcomes you care about (traffic, leads, sales)—no fluff, no surprise fees.
What drives cost
- Platforms managed: which channels we run and the role each plays in your funnel
- Content volume and formats: number of posts per month and the mix across static, carousels, Stories, Reels/Shorts/TikToks, long-form video, and copy, design, and motion needs
- Community management SLAs: hours covered, response times, escalation paths, and reputation monitoring
- Paid social support: from occasional boosted posts to full-funnel ad management, creative testing, pixels/events, and UTM structure
- Reporting depth: standard monthly dashboards vs advanced GA4 and attribution, CRM tie-ins, testing roadmaps, and landing page development
- Add-ons as needed: social listening, influencer or UGC coordination, on-site photo or video shoots, multi-language, contests or giveaways
Typical starting ranges, ad spend not included
- SMB Starter, $1,500 to $3,000 per month: 1 to 2 platforms, a strategic content calendar with a steady cadence of posts, baseline community moderation during business hours, boosted post support as needed, monthly report tied to site traffic and conversions. One-time onboarding or audit typically $1,000 to $2,000 — best for getting consistent and “pro” without going all-in on video.
- Growth, SMB plus or mid-market, $3,000 to $6,000 per month: 2 to 3 platforms, higher content volume including short-form video, business-hours response SLAs, structured boosted post plan or light paid support, GA4 and UTM hygiene, test log and insights, WordPress landing page support such as one per quarter. Onboarding typically $1,500 to $3,000 — ideal when you’re ready to prove ROI and scale what works.
- Performance, mid-market plus, $6,000 to $12,000+ per month: 3 to 5 platforms, robust video and creative iteration, extended community coverage, full paid social management, multivariate creative testing, advanced analytics and CRM attribution, social listening, dedicated WordPress landing pages and CRO support. Onboarding typically $2,000 to $4,000 — built for teams that want full-funnel growth and detailed attribution.
Most new clients start in SMB Starter or Growth, then we scale as results compound.

FAQs: execution, approvals, and integration
Here’s how we run social day to day, so you know what to expect—and so your team can stay focused on the rest of your marketing. If you want a low-lift, high-visibility process, this is it.
How do content approvals work?
- Cadence: we deliver a monthly content calendar 7 to 10 business days before the new month. You review in one place, in your tool or ours. Fewer email chains, faster approvals.
- Edits: two rounds of edits per post are included. Most clients finalize within 3 to 4 business days, keeping momentum without sacrificing quality.
- Fast track: for time sensitive posts, we offer same-day turnaround during 9 to 5 CT with a 2 to 4 hour window once assets and direction are supplied. After-hours and 7 day coverage is available as an add-on—perfect for launches, media hits, or urgent announcements.
- Governance: we document who approves what, backup approvers, and exact wording that must be pre-cleared, such as claims and disclaimers. This reduces risk and removes guesswork for your team.
Want to see how simple this feels in practice? Ask for a sample calendar walkthrough.
Who creates assets? What about video?
- We create copywriting, static graphics and carousels, motion graphics, Reels, TikTok and Shorts edits, thumbnail design, and light animation. We handle captions, hashtags, alt text, and accessibility so every post is publish-ready.
- You provide brand guidelines, logos, existing footage or product shots, and subject matter input. We can also run fully turnkey if you prefer a hands-off approach.
- Video capture options:
- St. Louis on-site shoots, half-day or full-day, for interviews, b-roll, and product demos
- Remote capture kits with shot lists and coaching, we handle edit and polish
- UGC or creator coordination with rights clearance
- Repurposing webinars or podcasts into social cuts
Not sure what mix you need? We’ll recommend a right-sized asset plan during kickoff.
What are typical turnaround times and posting frequency?
- Calendar build: 5 to 7 business days for the first draft each month
- Ad hoc posts: 24 to 72 hours depending on complexity
- Community management: inbound questions and comments answered within one business day, priority escalations within 2 hours during business hours, with expanded coverage available
- Typical organic frequency, tailored to your goals and resourcing:
- Instagram: 3 to 5 posts per week plus Stories
- LinkedIn: 2 to 4 posts per week, company and exec POV
- Facebook: 3 to 5 posts per week
- TikTok: 2 to 4 posts per week
- X or Twitter: 3 to 7 posts per week
- YouTube Shorts: 1 to 3 per week, Long-form: 1 to 2 per month
- Pinterest: 5 to 10 pins per week
We’ll match frequency to goals and budget—no overposting, no underdelivering.
Who owns accounts, data, and content?
- You do. Accounts, ad accounts, analytics, and all produced content are your property. We request admin access and can help you set up Business Manager and brand hubs correctly.
- Deliverables live in your shared drive, and we transfer native files, such as PSD, AI, AE, PR, Figma, or Canva, monthly. No black boxes, no lock-in.
- We secure usage rights for stock and UGC and maintain a release archive. NDAs and platform access are handled via our secure password manager. Ask about our clean handoff guarantee.
How do you handle UTMs, pixels, and social SEO?
- Tracking setup: we implement Meta Pixel, LinkedIn Insight Tag, TikTok Pixel, and others via Google Tag Manager, map events, and verify with platform diagnostics. GA4 is configured with clean channel groupings and conversion events—so you can see what actually drives pipeline.
- UTM hygiene: standardized schema such as utm_source=platform, utm_medium=social or paid social, utm_campaign=initiative, utm_content=creative variant. We maintain a live UTM catalog and provide short branded links when needed.
- Attribution: monthly assisted conversion and landing page reports, CRM tie-ins for lead quality where available.
- Social SEO: keyworded captions, platform-specific hashtags, alt text on images, on-screen text in videos, YouTube titles, descriptions, and chapters, and optimized Open Graph and Twitter Card metadata on your WordPress pages.

What changes from month 1 to month 3?
- Month 1, foundation: audit, access, pixels and UTMs, brand voice brief, content pillar map, and a pilot calendar. Baselines set in GA4 and platform analytics.
- Month 2, experimentation: A/B test hooks, formats, and posting times, refine the approval workflow, first full insight report with specific next steps.
- Month 3, scale and integrate: double down on winning pillars, introduce a boosted post framework or always-on paid support, spin up high-intent WordPress landing pages, and lock in a quarterly roadmap with clear KPIs.
Prefer to move fast? Start with a focused 90-day sprint to prove results and then scale.
Can you meet compliance and industry governance needs?
- Yes. We build a governance playbook with required approvals, pre-approved claims libraries, disclaimers, and retention. We maintain an audit trail of posts and comments.
- Regulated industries: we avoid PHI and PII, route sensitive issues to secure channels, and can work within your review systems. For finance, health, or legal, we add compliance checkpoints, content archives, and moderation rules aligned to your policy.
- Accessibility: captions, alt text, color contrast checks, and readable typography are standard.
