I grew a brand's Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok presence organically from scratch, followers and engagement up over 100%. For a beauty brand, I managed Instagram and TikTok marketing that helped grow their following to 91.7K followers.

I help e-commerce brands, coaches, real estate agents, and fashion & beauty businesses grow on Social Media.

"Jacob has been one of my biggest assets. We've generated hundreds of thousands of views together... he actually understands YouTube." 🚀 — Dillon Latham, 850K+ subscribers Most service-based founders post consistently and still don't grow. The issue isn't their content—it's that there's no system underneath it. No clear positioning, no packaging that earns the click, no strategy connecting views to revenue. I help entrepreneurs turn their YouTube channels into lead generation/brand building systems by fixing the strategy, packaging, and content structure that's keeping their views from converting into clients. Recent client results: 📈 Eileen Wilder (Business/Christian): New audience acquisition up 750% in 43 days Lukas (Real estate): Average views 3× in the first 30 days of relaunch (500 → 1,500+) Dillon Latham (Men’s Health): Hundreds of thousands of views generated in partnership

Great social media content needs to do three things: stop the scroll, earn trust, and turn viewers into customers. If your TikTok or Instagram isn't hitting all three, something in your process needs attention and that's where I come in. I work with coaches, personal brands, agencies, wellness businesses, fitness creators, beauty brands, local service providers, and startups to keep their content consistent, polished, and growth-focused through hands-on social media management, professional video and Reels editing, and AI-assisted content creation shaped around what they're actually trying to achieve. The goal is straightforward: get content off your to-do list, set up a system that keeps running without you having to manage every detail, and make sure every single post is pulling weight for your brand. Plenty of freelancers can shoot content. Plenty can edit clips. Plenty can hit "post." What sets me apart is bringing strategy, editing, and daily account management together under one roof — so instead of juggling three or four different people, you have one person handling everything from the first idea to the final published post. What I Offer: Video & Reels Editing 🔹 Reels and TikTok video editing (YouTube Shorts too) 🔹 Talking-head video editing — trimming, pacing, captions, intro/outro branding 🔹 UGC-style and promotional video editing 🔹 Turning podcast recordings and webinars into short-form clips for Reels and TikTok Social Media Management 🔹 Day-to-day management of your TikTok and Instagram (Facebook, LinkedIn, Pinterest, YouTube available too) 🔹 Scheduling and calendar upkeep using Metricool, Later, Buffer, Hootsuite, or Meta Business Suite Content Strategy 🔹 Building out monthly content calendars 🔹 Repurposing one piece of long-form content into several Reels/TikTok posts 🔹 Growth planning specifically for TikTok and Instagram Content Creation & Design 🔹 Writing captions, copy, and social media content 🔹 Scripting videos and crafting scroll-stopping hooks 🔹 Canva design work — posts, carousels, stories, ads, templates, and brand kits AI-powered content creation with ChatGPT, Midjourney, Runway, HeyGen, and ElevenLabs 🔹 Faster content output at scale, without losing your brand's voice Hand over your raw clips, half-formed ideas, podcast files, long-form content, or even just a general vision I'll turn it into polished, platform-ready content made for your specific audience. I put together a real content system for your brand so you're never stuck wondering what comes next. Expect steady output, an organized monthly calendar, and content that matches your visual style and business goals — all delivered within 24–48 hours so your page stays active. AI Tools I Use ChatGPT handles ideation and copy support, Midjourney generates AI imagery, Runway creates AI video, HeyGen produces avatar-based video content, and ElevenLabs covers voiceovers and audio work. Together, these tools help me scale output and deliver faster — all while staying true to your brand's tone and direction.

Once I've got a handle on your brand, audience, and goals, I move independently. I stay ahead of deadlines rather than needing reminders. I raise any issues early, before they turn into real problems. And I keep things running smoothly, even on a daily posting cadence, without needing to be micromanaged. Whether your team runs on Asana, Trello, ClickUp, Planable, or Notion, I plug right into your existing setup and get to work immediately. Ready to Get Started? If you're looking for a Social Media Manager and Video/Reels Editor who owns the process fully, delivers without needing to be chased down, and treats your brand like their own — reach out. Share your goals, current pain points, and what you're building toward. I'll come back with a clear plan for how I'd handle your TikTok and Instagram presence.
