Highlighted PPC / Social Media Projects:

A small sample of our social media marketing portfolio includes a wildly successful Facebook advertising campaign for multiplatinum R&B star, Brian McKnight.

In a campaign designed to promote his latest album, we saw organic reach surpass paid reach by over 1200%. Facebook rewarded our campaigns with 10/10 relevancy scores, delighting our client and his management team by providing maximum value for their budget.

In 2020 we strategized a unique social media marketing campaign for vinyl record label Wargod Records. Co-founded by SEO Los Angeles creative director Ryan O’Connor, the label was gearing up to release an anniversary edition soundtrack for the cult-classic Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead, under license from HBO and Warner Bros.

Wargod wanted to make some noise with the release, so we collaborated with actor Keith Coogan (delinquent older brother “Kenny” in the film) to film a DIY house-tour of the original Don’t Tell Mom house, located just a few miles north of Los Angeles.

The occasion marked the first time Coogan had returned to the house since filming in 1991, and the video segment proved to be a nostalgia filled hit on social media:

The goal of the video was to leverage social media to promote the soundtrack, which proved to be a success. The soundtrack sold out, and the video of Coogan giving the house tour found a home at The A.V. Club, which gets 20 million visitors annually. kenny and his stoner friends shootiing dishes off the roof in the 1991 film don't tell mom the babysitter's dead Other social media campaigns for Wargod include a soundtrack box set for the film True Romance (via Morgan Creek), a 20th anniversary pressing of The Sopranos soundtrack (via HBO and Sony), and several others.

Another social media management client of SEO Los Angeles is Canadian vocal legend Gino Vannelli. Best known for his hits in the 80s, Gino still has an incredibly loyal fanbase to this day, and it shows on his social media platforms.

Paid campaigns on Facebook have shown massive reach, and organic reach is miles above industry standard.

We also built Gino Vannelli’s website, which was a perfect opportunity to highlight his social media with native Facebook and Twitter embedded feeds:

Every campaign is different based on factors such as your industry, competition, location, whether your strategy involves using organic or paid reach, and ultimately what your goal is. For example, are we driving traffic for email sign ups? Video views? Brand awareness? Every PPC and SEM campaign is a grind that is setup for working toward predefined goals. 

With platforms like Google Ads, we can easily setup conversion tracking to ensure ad budgets are laser focused on a specific conversion type. Typical conversion types would be a visitor submitting a lead form, or purchasing a product. 

Yes, and we are selective with our clientele by design. First, we want partnerships where our goals are mutually aligned; we do not work like marketing agencies who have a “churn and burn” approach to their client list. We would rather do our due diligence to ensure we can help you for the long haul – and this can be dependent on a number of factors including the competition within your industry, the location of your business, and your marketing budget, to name a few.

There are also some industries which are not permitted on most social media and/or advertising platforms. For example, tobacco and vape products, and bail bond services are not permitted on Google Ads.

Get in touch and let’s see if we’re a good fit.

Yes, we send monthly reports. 

Of course not. We have clients and team members around the world.
