But there is MORE than image and video media to work on and this is where Stern really stands out:

LANGUAGE!

Stern Marketing: Your Phoenix Instagram Marketing Agency

When you hear the phrase “Social Media Marketing,” what comes to mind?

Most people immediately think about tools and platforms: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or Snapchat. But what if we told you that focusing solely on the tool misses the bigger picture? What you need is the right philosophy to guide your efforts. At Stern Marketing, we’ve redefined Instagram marketing by taking a unique approach—focusing on media to drive results for Phoenix businesses.

MEDIA, Not Just Social Media

Take the word “social” out of “social media marketing,” and what are you left with? Media marketing. This shift in focus changes everything. Media encompasses pictures, videos, blogs, art, theater, music, and more. Instagram, as a highly visual platform, thrives on engaging media that tells a story and resonates with its audience.

At Stern Marketing, we don’t just create beautiful images and compelling videos for your Instagram. We take it a step further by pairing these visuals with thoughtful language and narratives. Our goal is to captivate your followers, spark meaningful conversations, and ultimately convert engagement into real business outcomes.

Before diving into your Instagram strategy, we start with a comprehensive Stern Social Media Audit. This allows us to understand your brand’s unique value proposition, your target audience, and the competitive landscape. From there, we develop a tailored strategy designed to achieve your goals—whether it’s increasing brand awareness, driving website traffic, or boosting sales.

Beyond Images and Videos: The Power of Language

While stunning visuals are essential on Instagram, they’re only part of the equation. Language is equally important, and it’s an area where Stern Marketing truly shines. Poems, plays, quotes, and stories are all forms of media, and when combined with visuals, they create a powerful narrative that sets your brand apart.

Think about it: There’s an intangible “oomph” to your brand. Something beautiful, poignant, and meaningful about your product or service. Our job is to uncover that essence and express it in a way that resonates deeply with your audience.

Instead of generic captions or a string of hashtags, we craft compelling stories that not only earn hearts but also start conversations. For example:

• Generic Post: #beautiful #marketing #ROI #socialmedia

• Stern Marketing Post: When you #GetStern with your @Instagram #marketing, we will tell stories in #beautiful #pictures and #words that will increase your #ROI. Let’s #GetStern about your Instagram strategy.

Trending Hashtags and Pop Culture Integration

Hashtags are a cornerstone of Instagram strategy, but there’s a right way and a wrong way to use them. At Stern Marketing, we don’t just throw random hashtags together and hope for the best. Instead, we:

1. Research Industry Trends: We identify the most relevant and trending hashtags in your industry to ensure your posts reach the right audience.

2. Incorporate Pop Culture: By weaving in timely references and cultural touchpoints, we make your content relatable and shareable.

3. Tell a Story: Hashtags are integrated seamlessly into the narrative of your post, enhancing its impact rather than distracting from it.

Success Stories: Transforming Businesses Through Instagram

Stern Marketing has a proven track record of helping Phoenix businesses thrive on Instagram. Here are just a few examples:

• Local Boutique: We worked with a Phoenix-based fashion boutique to showcase their unique styles through professional photoshoots paired with engaging captions. By using hashtags like #PhoenixStyle and #ShopLocal, we increased their follower count by 300% and drove significant foot traffic to their store.

• Fitness Studio: For a local gym, we created a series of motivational posts featuring their trainers and clients. The combination of inspiring visuals and uplifting stories helped boost membership sign-ups by 50% in just three months.

• Artisan Bakery: We turned a small bakery into a local Instagram sensation by highlighting their handmade creations with behind-the-scenes videos and storytelling. The result? A 40% increase in online orders.

The Stern Marketing Process

Our approach to Instagram marketing is both strategic and creative. Here’s how we do it:

1. Discovery:

   • We learn about your business, your goals, and your audience. This helps us understand what makes your brand unique and how we can highlight that on Instagram.

2. Content Creation:

   • From professional photos and videos to creative captions and hashtags, we create content that reflects your brand’s personality and appeals to your target audience.

3. Community Engagement:

   • Instagram is a two-way street. We actively engage with your followers, respond to comments, and initiate conversations to build a loyal community around your brand.
