$2.3M+ in managed social ad spend · Denver-based since 2009
We'll tell you if social media marketing is the right channel for your business and what it would take. 30 minutes. Straight talk.
Social media marketing in Denver works when it's built on local data, not national templates. Social media marketing includes paid campaigns, organic content, community management, and performance measurement tied to leads and revenue. We've spent 16 years learning what actually moves the needle for Denver businesses, from Capitol Hill coffee shops to Tech Center B2B firms across Denver, Colorado. The playbook is different for each one. We serve businesses across Denver and the surrounding metro, including Lakewood, Littleton, Aurora, and Arvada.
We offer full-service marketing in Denver and plan, produce, and optimize social programs across Meta, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, and YouTube. We've managed $2.3M+ in social ad spend across 100+ campaigns since 2009.
Why Choose a Denver Social Media Marketing Agency?
A local retailer in SE Denver asked us a blunt question: “Can social actually move revenue?” We proved it could. Within 8 weeks, foot traffic was up 34% and the account was profit-positive by month 3.
That result didn’t come from a template. It came from pairing neighborhood-level audiences with smart creative and a weekly testing cadence. We swapped product shots for customer videos on day 21. Engagement tripled within the first test cycle. Cost per lead dropped by the end of month one.
This is what social media advertising in Denver looks like when someone actually manages it.
We work with SMB and mid-market teams across retail, restaurants, healthcare, professional services, home services, and B2B technology. Our clients run the full range, from single-location shops in Cherry Creek to multi-location operations across the Denver metro area.
How we produced these results:
- Faster learning cycles through weekly creative tests
- Lower CPL through creative sequencing and audience refinement
- Clear handoffs to your sales team with clean UTM tracking
- Live dashboards that everyone on your team can read

How Social Media Marketing Works for Denver Businesses
Most agencies build one audience, run one set of ads, and review performance once a month. That’s why most social media programs fail.
We work differently. Here’s the actual process:
Week 1: Audience and Platform Mapping
We map your Denver audience by neighborhood and buying stage. A Capitol Hill consumer doesn’t see the same message as a DTC executive. We identify which platforms your buyers actually use and build a 90-day KPI framework tied to your revenue goals, not vanity metrics.
Week 2: Creative Launch
We produce your first round of ad creative and organic content. Every campaign launches with at least 3 creative variants so we have data from day one.
Weeks 3-4: First Test Cycle
We analyze the first two weeks of data and make our first creative swap. This is where most agencies are still in “setup mode.” We’re already optimizing.
Ongoing: Weekly Tests, Monthly Reports
Every week, we test a new variable: headline, image, audience segment, placement. You see results in your live dashboard. Monthly, we send a written summary with recommendations for the next 30 days.
Your SEO, PPC, and content marketing should connect to your social channels. We build social programs that feed your full funnel, not operate in a silo.
How social media marketing works in Denver: A local agency maps your audience by neighborhood and buying stage, launches creative with multiple variants, runs weekly tests to lower cost per lead, and reports results through a live dashboard. The best programs combine paid and organic social across 2-3 platforms matched to your industry.

Book Your 30-Minute EvaluationWhich Social Media Platforms Work for Denver Businesses?
Not every platform is right for every business. Here’s how we typically map platforms for Denver clients:
Meta (Facebook + Instagram)
Best for: Retail, restaurants, home services, healthcare. Strong for neighborhood-level geo-targeting and retargeting. Most Denver SMBs start here because the audience data is the richest.
Best for: B2B, professional services, SaaS, recruiting. We run campaigns using different LinkedIn advertising formats for Tech Center firms targeting decision-makers by job title, company size, and industry. LinkedIn’s cost per click is higher, but for many B2B teams the leads convert at a higher rate than Meta.
TikTok
Best for: Restaurants, retail, events, brands targeting under-40 audiences. TikTok’s algorithm rewards creative that feels native to the platform, not repurposed Instagram content. We produce platform-specific video for TikTok.
YouTube
Best for: Education-heavy sales cycles, brand awareness, retargeting. We use YouTube for mid-funnel content that supports conversion, not as a standalone lead gen channel.
Best for: Home services, interior design, wedding vendors, food and beverage. Lower competition than Meta, and users on Pinterest tend to be closer to a buying decision.
We manage all five and recommend the right mix based on your audience, budget, and goals.
How Much Does Social Media Marketing Cost in Denver?
Most Denver SMBs invest $3,500-$6,000/month for full-service social media marketing. That includes strategy, content creation, paid media management, and reporting. Ad spend is separate and paid directly to the platform.
Enterprise and multi-location programs are available at custom rates. Every program is built to your specific goals and budget.
Typical social media marketing cost in Denver: Full-service social media marketing for Denver SMBs runs $3,500-$6,000/month, covering strategy, content, paid management, and reporting. Ad spend is additional. Cost varies by platform count, creative needs, and campaign scope.
Choose us if you want a Denver agency that tests weekly, reports in real time, and works month-to-month. Not a fit if you want a set-it-and-forget-it agency or need someone to just schedule posts without strategy. If your budget is under $750/month for management, we’re probably not the right fit.
If you’re not sure how much to spend on marketing overall, that’s a conversation we can have during the evaluation. We’ll tell you where social fits into your total budget.
| Factor | Impact on Cost |
|---|---|
| Number of platforms | More platforms = more content and management time |

| Scope (organic + paid) | Full-service costs more than organic-only or paid-only |
| Reporting depth | Custom dashboards and attribution modeling add complexity |

What Makes Creative Options Different From Other Denver Social Media Agencies?
We live here and we measure everything. National template agencies don’t account for Broncos home games, First Friday art walks in RiNo, or the weekday swings in LinkedIn engagement we see for DTC audiences that shape when and how we run B2B campaigns.
We do.
| What Matters | Us | Others |
|---|---|---|
| Local Targeting | Neighborhood and event-based audiences | Broad zip code lists |
| Speed to Learning | Weekly creative tests | Monthly reviews |
| Dashboard Access | Live KPIs, 24/7 | Monthly PDF reports |
| Sales Handoff | CRM-aligned with UTM tracking | Generic lead forms |
| Contracts | Monthly, performance-driven | 6-12 month lock-ins |
| Creative Volume | New variants every month | Same creative for quarters |
