How the retainer works
Why people stay on a retainer
One team makes and plans
The people who shoot your videos also help decide what to shoot. Strategy and production sit together.
A fixed monthly scope
The scope is agreed in advance, so you know what each month includes before it starts.
We learn your brand over time
By the third or fourth month, briefs get shorter because we already know your audience, your products and your approvals process.
Questions people ask
What is included in a monthly retainer?
The exact mix is set in your agreement. It usually combines video production, social planning and posting, and a monthly review, with photo shoots or ad creative added if you need them.
How soon can we start?
A social media content package can start within about two weeks. Onboarding comes first, where we review your channels and agree on the first month's plan.
What do you need from us each month?
Approval of the monthly plan, access to your accounts, and quick answers on product or schedule changes. If you can send photos or stories from your team, we will use them.
How many revisions do we get?
Feedback rounds on videos and graphics are part of the scope we agree. We ask for notes in one list so edits go out quickly.
Who owns the content we make?
Usage terms are written into the agreement. Finished videos and images are delivered to you in shared folders so you have your own library.
