social media and communications services

Crafting social media content that engages your current audience, speaks to your desired audience, and delivers the appropriate messaging about you and your brand is a time-consuming, labor-intensive process. It’s daunting - but doesn’t need to be. I work with brands by diving into their current content workflow, identifying the areas that need improvement, and developing a strategy for content creation that is simple and effective. From creative ideation through to execution, I help brands make better content for each of their social channels quickly.

Testimonials

Michael Platco is brilliant. I have had the pleasure to work with him on projects ranging from event coordination to social media strategy. Each time he brings knew insights and knowledge of ways to innovate in whatever media we tend to be working at. In one meeting with our team at NASA he changed the way that we work with Instagram. If you get a chance to work with Michael then do it.

I’ve collaborated with Mike to create content for the Pretty Little Liars Snapchat account and he’s a pleasure to work with. Not only is he great at creating snaps for us, he quickly learned our brand and is able to come up with fun ideas that relate to the themes of the show. Mike’s easy to work with and goes above and beyond on all projects!
