IT’S A SMALL WORLD AFTER ALL
You don’t need to listen to singing Disney characters to know how interconnected we are.
The rise of digital communication means we can talk to people around the world with the same ease as chatting with our friends in our back yard.
But in many ways the world has never felt bigger. Now, you’re not only competing with the businesses next door, but the ones across the globe. Stakes are higher, but the tools are better. All you need are the skills.
That’s what we have. In spades.
Social Creatures Unite!
At Parodos, we’re the ultimate connectors. We make use of all of social platforms – from Facebook to face-to-face, Twitter to in-depth blogging, LinkedIn to corporate consulting, Instagram and Pinterest to great visual design, and YouTube to corporate video production – we’ve got your audience covered, both in person and online.
Social marketing connects friends and strangers who share ideas, attitudes and beliefs. At Parodos, we turn these groups into communities – bound together by shared values, and strengthened by their connections to each other.
WHAT IS SOCIAL MARKETING?
A business or organization is never just about a transaction. At Parodos, we believe the best way to build your organization is to make connections and nurture relationships – rather than just telling people what you’re selling and asking them to buy it.
We may use the latest technology to reach your audience, or perhaps good ol’ fashioned face-to-face connection. But whatever the tactic, the philosophy remains the same: we connect your values to your audience and it’s the personal touch that counts.
Because it’s the people, not the transactions, that matter.
What We Do?
We build and extend your brand, raise your profile, connect with your customers and communities, and help you create change in your corner of the world.

HOW WE DO IT
Social Strategy
“If you build it, they will come.” WRONG!
We always start with strategy. We work with you to find out who you are, what you stand for, what you offer your community, and who cares. Then we figure out the best tactics to get you out there, and the kinds of messages that will resonate with your audience.
Once we know the story you need to tell, we find the best ways, and the best places, to share it.
Then, we chat about it with the people who care the most.
And after that, we listen. We converse. We rally. We discuss. We cheer. We empathize.
And then, we do it all over again, in an ongoing process of listening and learning, honing and responding. Social strategy is never finished, it’s alive, just like people are. That’s what makes it so powerful.
Social Media
“Let’s give ’em something to talk about…”
We build communities on the following platforms:
- Blogs
- YOU TUBE
We’ll produce all of your social content – everything from Facebook posts to in-depth blogs, videos, pictures, tweets and more. And we manage all of your social interactions – responding, listening, and evaluating at every step of the game, making sure your audience is heard.
Social Messaging
Be gone, ye old corporate-speak – there’s a new language in town…
From blogs to web content, articles to reports, we produce written documents of all kinds. We take a social approach to create engaging, creative content that speaks to your community, that shares your values and sparks ideas, discussion and smiles.
