GWI, 2025Socials that add value.
The average internet user spends almost 2.5 hours a day on social platforms. Two out of three buyers check your social profiles before they decide. An empty Instagram or LinkedIn is not neutral. It is a red flag that quietly costs you trust.
Why social presence is now part of the buying decision.
Social used to be a marketing channel. Today it is a credibility check. Buyers, partners, and even job candidates pull up your profile before the first call. The numbers below show how often that check decides what happens next.

LinkedIn MarketingWhat I offer.
Strategy and execution, both. I cover the full loop, from deciding where you should show up to actually posting and following up. Every channel runs with intent, not as a calendar to fill.
- 01
Channel strategy
Choosing where you should be active and where it would be a waste of time, based on who your customers actually are. Voice, cadence, content themes, and growth angles, mapped before a single post goes out.
- 02
Content planning and production
A monthly content plan tied to the strategy. I write the copy, design the post graphics, and prepare each piece for the platform it lives on. No copy-paste posts that look the same on every channel.
- 03
Posting and channel management
Scheduling, publishing, and watching the channel for replies and mentions. The brand stays present and responsive, so prospects never land on dead air.
Channels I run.
Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, Facebook, X, Threads. Which mix is right depends on where your audience already spends time. Below: a quick reference on what each platform is best for.
| Platform | Daily use (avg) | Best for | Avg engagement |
|---|---|---|---|
| ~50 min / day | Consumer brand, visual storytelling | 0.50% | |
| TikTok | ~58 min / day | Discovery, Gen Z + Millennial reach | 2.50% |
| ~7 min / day | B2B lead generation, thought leadership | 2.30% | |
| ~33 min / day | Local audiences, community | 0.06% |
Daily-use averages from GWI 2025. Engagement rates from Rival IQ 2024 industry benchmark. Notice the LinkedIn pattern: low daily use, high intent. Time spent on a platform is not the same as influence on a buying decision.
