Strategy, content, and community management for Seattle small businesses, nonprofits, and arts organizations — from a consultant who built his career there.
Before SMM Buddy, I spent six years running social media and digital campaigns inside Seattle organizations — from Intiman Theatre to the Northwest Arts Streaming Hub to the University of Washington. I know what it takes to grow an audience in a city this crowded with things to do: content with a real point of view, consistent community engagement, and a strategy that earns attention instead of renting it.
Seattle Track Record
Seattle performing arts — audience growth & show promotion
Northwest Arts Streaming Hub — 100+ livestreamed events, 500+ artists
University of Washington — campus recreation marketing
What I Do
Strategy, content calendars, posting, and community management across Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and LinkedIn.
Short-form video, Reels editing, and branded graphics — with on-location shoots available on Seattle trips.
Captions, hooks, bios, and ad copy that sound like your organization — not a content mill.
Meta and TikTok campaigns for Seattle audiences — event promotion, lead gen, and local awareness.
Especially strong for nonprofits and arts organizations. Audience development, event promotion, donor-facing storytelling, and community partnerships are where my Seattle experience runs deepest — if your organization lives on community support, that's my home turf.
Common Questions
I'm based in Portland today, but Seattle is where I built my career — I lived and worked there for over six years and still visit regularly. I've run social media for Seattle organizations across performing arts, nonprofits, and the University of Washington, so I know the local audience firsthand. Most client relationships are fully remote, with in-person shoots available when I'm in town.
Seattle agency retainers commonly run $3,000–$12,000+ per month — priced for downtown offices and account teams. I scope engagements to what you actually need: full management, content creation, a strategy reset, or paid campaigns. We work out scope and investment on a free intro call.
No — my background spans fintech, crypto, B2B logistics, and gaming too. But Seattle's arts and nonprofit sector is where I have the deepest local track record: livestreamed events, audience development, donor-facing campaigns, and community partnerships. If your organization runs on community support, that experience transfers directly.
Instagram is the discovery engine for most Seattle consumer businesses and arts organizations. LinkedIn is unusually strong here given the tech workforce — it matters for B2B and recruiting-adjacent brands. TikTok reaches younger audiences, and Facebook events still drive real attendance for community programming. An audit tells us where your specific audience actually is.
Day to day, everything runs remotely: a shared content calendar, monthly strategy calls, async approvals, and clear reporting. For content capture, we either train your team on simple capture systems, work with footage you have, or schedule shoot days when I'm in Seattle.
