The 100-Proof Plan
Fluent Social is not an agency there are no contracts and no markup plans. We are a time-plus-expenses resource for companies needing to expand their digital capacity without making an agency or staffing commitment. When you hire us for the work, we don’t mark up partners’ or vendors’ work, we work as a team that goes to work for you at cost. It’s called the 100 Proof Plan. We bring experts when needed. You pay only for their time.

Based on the scope of the project, Fluent Social will assemble the team of experts you need, while not charging you for services or overhead you don’t need. We believe in pay for performance, so if you are not 100% happy with our results we will gladly refund your money.
Your first thirty-minute consulting session is free, so what do you have to lose?
There are many ways we can get started via a web/video call.
A. Training & Educational Presentations (working with teams & groups to kick-start or reenergize your social program)
I have presented to large groups at Austin’s South by Southwest Interactive festival as well as smaller groups of high-level executives on online marketing programs and social media strategies.
B. Consulting (Writing the Social Media Strategy Plan for your business and team)
Let’s map out the strategy for your next program. I can help by the hour or by the project. From creative direction and team/project leadership to technical deployments, I’ve done projects big and small, and I can bring that learning to your project. Let’s cut to the chase and get it done.
C. High-Performance Working Sessions (Let’s put a working session together )
The following half-day sessions are meant for small and medium-sized businesses. They can be presented to your team in person or virtually using WebEx or a similar program.
What does a social media strategist do?
What do you say when people ask, “What do you do?” Ummm. I say, “I’m an online marketer.” What that means is I do whatever it takes to build online marketing programs that sell services or products on the web. I’ve had a long tenure in design both for the web, interactive, and print. I’ve done enough SEO and PPC work to be competent in most systems and best practices. And I’ve got a good handle on how to put together cohesive campaigns from web, to email, to direct mail, and bring the whole thing together with analytics and optimization to create revenue. Sure, I do social media too, but these days there’s a lot more work that needs to be done. Putting up a Facebook fan page and tweeting some coupons on Twitter isn’t going to do much. You’ve got to know how to create content.
Fluent Social is ready to engage with your online marketing team and accelerate your leads.
