Social Media – Where We All Spend Time
Social media is no longer optional for businesses that want to remain visible, credible, and competitive online. Today’s customers expect to find active, relevant content across the platforms they use every day and they often judge a company’s professionalism by what they see there first.
At Marketing Type Guys, we approach social media the same way we approach SEO or paid advertising: as a disciplined marketing channel that requires planning, consistency, and measurable goals.
A Focused Platform Strategy
Not every platform deserves your time or budget. Our role is to identify the channels that actually influence your audience and ensure your business maintains a strong, professional presence there.
For most organizations, that means concentrating on:
#1 Facebook – Still one of the most effective platforms for reaching homeowners and local customers.
#2 Instagram – Ideal for visual storytelling, project highlights, and brand familiarity.
#3 YouTube or TikTok (when applicable) – A powerful tool for demonstrating expertise and improving search visibility.
If this guy can attract millions, just think what you can do!

Rather than chasing trends, we prioritize the platforms that reliably deliver engagement and reinforce your brand.
Consistency Builds Credibility
Successful social media is not about posting more, it’s about posting with purpose.
Our services include:
- Professional content creation aligned with your services and audience
- Scheduled publishing to maintain a steady, reliable presence
- Messaging that balances promotion, education, and brand personality
- Coordination with your broader SEO and digital marketing strategy
This structured approach ensures your social channels support your overall visibility instead of becoming disconnected or inactive.
Supporting Your Broader Digital Presence
Social media works best when it complements everything else you’re doing online. It strengthens search visibility, reinforces reputation signals, and gives potential customers additional confidence before they contact you. As part of a larger online presence strategy, social media becomes another touchpoint that helps move customers from awareness to action.
Not to belabor the point, but this is where the action is. You should still hang your shingle on other platforms, as this is good for SEO. And by all means have fun out there in social media. Keep on Pinning and Tiktoking if that’s your thing. It’s all awesome!
But, if you want your marketing dollars to have the most impact, dedicate time to Facebook. Or better yet, have us dedicate efforts on your behalf. We are experts at helping you determine what to say, when to say it and who to say it to. As silly as social media can seem at times, it does require strategy and consistent effort to leverage as a business.
If your company has a pay-per-click budget for marketing, you should consider this as well. All of the “big three” have paid channels available that offer impressive demographic target marketing tools. You can read more over at our PPC management services page.
