Section 3: The Studio490 Solution

How did you approach the challenge?

How was your client involved in this stage?

The client provided feedback and input on social media development and strategy along the way via monthly phone calls.

Social media development works on a 30-day rotation so our monthly campaigns and advertising were developed each month.
