Akile Ekin D.

Strategic Social Media Manager | Cross-Industry & Global Experience

I help brands create a structured content system that drives visibility, trust, and sales. Most brands aren’t struggling because they lack content. They’re struggling because their content lacks structure, intent, and a system behind it. ⭐️That’s what I build. • Social media management across Instagram, TikTok, Linkedin and Meta • Video production (Reels, TikTok, UGC) • AI Generated Video production (Reels, TikTok, UGC) • Clear brand messaging that makes a connection with the target audience • Sales funnels for campaign optimisation 🔥What did I do before? I work across tech, beauty, F&B, and digital platforms, managing social media, influencer marketing, and content systems end-to-end. • Built and scaled 10+ brand accounts from scratch • Led UGC & influencer campaigns with 100+ creators • Generated 60M+ total views through short-form content strategies • Managed TikTok & Meta ad accounts alongside organic growth • Collaborated with international teams across 3+ markets • Contributed as a UX writer for global platforms like Semrush 🤝A Structured Way of Working Every brand I work with follows a clear, step-by-step system. No guesswork just a defined process from strategy to execution. 1. Strategy & Positioning We start with a competitor analysis to understand your market and positioning. Then we define what makes your brand stand out your key differentiators, messaging, and tone of voice. 2. Onboarding & Brand Alignment You receive a tailored onboarding document designed specifically for your brand. Through this, we align on your goals, audience, communication style, and overall direction. This is where we build the foundation of your brand voice. 3. Content Direction & Planning We create your content plan based on your goals and positioning. If needed, we also plan your shoot days and content production process. We decide together what type of content will work best, formats, themes, and storytelling approach. 4. Creative Direction & Design We move into the design phase by defining the overall creative direction. Concepts, visual language, and content styles are aligned before production. For sales-driven content, we develop multiple variations aligned with the strategy to test and optimize performance. 5. Content Production & Delivery Your content is produced in structured batches. Every two weeks, your content is prepared and delivered for review and approval. 6. Publishing & Ongoing Optimization Once approved, content is published in line with our agreed plan. We continuously monitor performance and refine the approach to improve results over time.
