Service Suite Tailored to Two Distinct Markets
Discovery and Strategic Foundation
Every engagement begins with a market and brand audit. We assess your category conversations, benchmark competitors, map platform roles, and define the buyer and citizen journeys unique to Niger and South Africa. From that, we craft a social strategy that clarifies objectives, channel architecture, tone of voice, and the creative territories that will move your audience.
- Brand and competitor audit with qualitative sentiment insights
- Audience personas and linguistic mapping per province and region
- Channel role definitions for awareness, consideration, service, and advocacy
- 12-week test-and-learn roadmap with clear hypotheses
Content Production and Editorial Planning
We create platform-specific narratives that work across screen sizes and data realities. Editorial calendars align national moments with community rituals—from school schedules in Niger to sports and cultural seasons in South Africa—so your brand feels present, not promotional. We blend short-form video, still design, community prompts, and educational series, optimizing formats for fast loads and clear storytelling. Great social begins with great content.
- Creative territories and story arcs tailored to each channel
- Video production for Reels, TikTok, and Shorts; subtitles and aspect ratios included
- Lightweight GIFs and static posts for low-bandwidth environments
- Copywriting in relevant languages with culturally informed idioms and tone
Localized Community Management
Our bilingual and multilingual community managers host the conversation, not just monitor it. We respond swiftly, escalate issues via agreed playbooks, and maintain a constructive tone during sensitive discussions. Intelligent prompts and localized participation unlock genuine engagement while sustaining a brand-safe community.
- Moderation windows aligned with WAT (Niger) and SAST (South Africa)
- Response matrices for FAQs, service complaints, and crisis triggers
- Sentiment tracking and weekly conversation themes
- Escalation workflows with timestamps and root-cause notes
Paid Social and Media Buying
We deploy full-funnel paid social, right-sized for each market’s access and cost structure. Campaigns are structured for rapid learning: audiences segmented by language and location, creative A/B tests by format and value prop, and budget pacing guarded by alerts. Our buying approach spans awareness bursts to evergreen lead gen—grounded in channel economics and best-in-class policies for brand safety. Effective advertising is deliberate, not accidental.
- Audience design using first-party data, lookalikes, and interest clusters
- Geo and language splits to improve creative relevance
- Conversion measurement via pixels, CAPI, and UTMs
- Creative iteration sprints tied to performance signals
Influencer and Creator Collaborations
We curate credible creators in both countries—community organizers, educators, entertainers, or niche experts—who add warmth and authority to your story. Contracts, briefs, and clear measurable deliverables keep partnerships efficient and transparent.
- Creator vetting with brand safety checks and audience authenticity
- Localized briefs with voice, messaging boundaries, and disclosure rules
- Post, Story, Live, and event-based deliverable options
- Measurement of creator contribution to reach, save, and conversion metrics
Customer Care and Crisis Readiness
Whether you handle service internally or via our team, we ensure social care is responsive, empathetic, and compliant. We set response KPIs, unify CRM notes where possible, and prepare playbooks for sensitive topics such as service outages, civic disruptions, or policy questions.
Social Commerce and Lead Generation
We connect interest to action with integrations for WhatsApp Business, Facebook Shops, and lead forms. South Africa’s payments ecosystem and South-South trade opportunities inform the funnel design, while in Niger we design low-friction flows that respect bandwidth and device realities.
Listening, Insights, and Continuous Improvement
Our social listening uncovers emerging topics from Agadez to Durban. We synthesize chatter into actionable insights for creative, care, and product decisions. The result is an adaptive program that treats data as dialogue, not just dashboards, powered by disciplined analytics.
Platform-by-Platform Approach
Foundational in both markets for mass reach and customer service. We design posts for shareability, prioritize clear calls to action, and leverage Groups where relevant, especially for community initiatives and NGO projects.
Vital for lifestyle, aspirational storytelling, and product showcases, particularly in South Africa’s urban centers. Reels, Highlights, and Guides structure are used to teach, inspire, and convert.
TikTok
Short-form education and entertainment with sound-first creativity. In South Africa, TikTok’s cultural trends drive virality; in Niger, we balance lightweight edits with accessible themes and vernacular storytelling.
X
Useful for real-time updates, issues management, and civic discourse. We use concise visual cards, threads for explainers, and carefully prepared escalation protocols.
B2B awareness, employer branding, and partnerships—especially strong for South Africa’s corporate and startup ecosystems and for NGOs seeking regional collaborators.
YouTube
Home for long-form education, product demos, and community highlights. We optimize thumbnails, multilingual captions, and series formats to build habitual viewing.
WhatsApp Business
Crucial for service, timely updates, and opt-in campaigns in both markets. We structure conversational flows, templates, and handoffs to live agents, ensuring a respectful, compliant experience.
Cultural and Linguistic Precision
Words carry history. We ensure your brand honors that. In Niger, content may carry French structure while recognizing Hausa idioms and Zarma expressions; in South Africa, tone shifts between formal English for corporate contexts and warm, inclusive local registers for consumer moments. Visuals respect attire norms, national holidays, and community symbols without stereotyping. That is not translation—it is localization with intent.
- Language selection matrices per campaign objective
- Glossaries for terminology consistency across teams and markets
- Cultural review checkpoints in preflight approvals
- Accessibility: subtitles, alt text, and readable color contrast
Measurement, Reporting, and Business Impact
We measure what matters, then optimize what performs. KPIs are tied to funnel stages—reach quality and cost, save and share rates, reply times, lead volume and quality, revenue where applicable. Weekly readouts feed creative sprints; monthly reviews reshape the plan; quarterly deep dives reset benchmarks. Our goal is practical performance that sustains momentum and protects ROI.
- Unified dashboards with UTM taxonomy and platform pixels
- Attribution alignment across paid and organic
- Budget pacing with guardrails and alerting
- Test logs documenting learnings, not just metrics
Governance, Security, and Compliance
We safeguard your brand and data. Role-based access controls, documented approvals, and backup admins prevent lockouts. POPIA-aligned processes protect personal information in South Africa; responsible data use practices guide audience targeting in both countries. Our moderation protocols balance freedom of expression with safety, supported by clear house rules and escalation clarity.
- Account architecture with multi-admin governance and 2FA
- Crisis runbooks with roles, response windows, and templates
- Content rights management and creator consent tracking
- Regular audits of page roles, pixel compliance, and data retention

FAQs: Practical Considerations
Which platforms should we prioritize?
We recommend a core mix of Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp Business in both markets, adding TikTok for high-impact awareness and YouTube for education. LinkedIn becomes essential for B2B, recruiting, and partnerships in South Africa.
How do you handle multilingual content without confusing audiences?
By segmenting channels or posts by language, using consistent visual systems, and tagging appropriately. We avoid mixing multiple languages in a single asset unless it mirrors organic speech patterns and testing proves clarity.
Can you work with our in-house creative team?
Yes. We can own creative end to end, or function as an extension of your team—providing briefs, toolkits, and editorial oversight while your designers and videographers execute. We also manage creator pipelines when capacity is tight.
How do you ensure quality under tight timelines?
Templates, brand systems, and a clear approvals cadence. We stockpile evergreen assets, run monthly pre-builds for known events, and reserve sprint time for reactive opportunities.
What do you need to begin?
Brand guidelines, access to existing channels, a list of key dates, and clarity on compliance requirements. From there, we conduct a kickoff workshop and deliver your first 30-day action plan.
