Three things we build.
One we do for artists.
Two companies.
One point of accountability.
Agencies that set the strategy, run the campaigns and then write the report are marking their own homework. We split the job on purpose. Our sister consultancy Dashon decides what to measure and what to do. Social Nerd does it, at a fixed price, and the numbers come from someone who is not being paid to run the ads.
Dashon
- —Tracking audits and measurement architecture
- —Attribution, dashboards and board reporting
- —Media planning, budgets and fractional CMO
Social Nerd
- —Paid media campaigns, optimised weekly
- —SEO, content and programmatic pages
- —Websites on Wix Studio and Next.js
Numbers first.
Adjectives later.
Google Ads accounts we have run, all time. Spend excludes Performance Max.
Scope. Build. Run.

Scope
You bring the plan, or Dashon writes one. We turn it into a fixed-price scope with named deliverables. No hourly billing, no surprises.
Build
Campaigns, pages, sites and tracking implemented to spec. Live in weeks, not quarters, with QA before anything goes near your customers.
Run
Weekly optimisation, fortnightly creative tests, monthly CRO changes. A shipped-work log you can read in two minutes.
Review
Performance is reported by Dashon or your own analytics, not by the team running the ads. If it is not working, you hear it from us first.
Latest insights.
Straight answers.
What exactly do you deliver each month?
A written scope lists it. For paid media: campaign builds, weekly bid and audience optimisation, fortnightly creative tests, monthly landing page changes and a shipped-work log. For SEO: technical fixes, content briefs, pages and links on the same cadence. Nothing is billed by the hour.
Why is the strategy done by a different company?
Because an agency that sets the plan, runs the ads and writes the report is marking its own homework. Dashon, our sister consultancy, owns the plan and the numbers. Social Nerd builds and runs. Same founder, two companies, one point of accountability.
Do I have to use Dashon?
No. Bring your own plan, in-house marketer or consultant and we quote a fixed price to execute it. If there is no plan and no measurement at all, we will say so and suggest a Dashon diagnostic audit before you spend.
How much does it cost?
Paid media and SEO retainers run £1k to £5k a month. Web builds £2k to £25k. Music campaigns are priced per release. Indicative ranges are on the pricing page, and every quote is a written scope you approve before anything is billed.
How fast can you start?
You get a fixed-price scope within two working days of the brief. Campaigns and pages usually go live within weeks, with QA before anything reaches your customers.
Who reports on performance?
Dashon or your own analytics, not the team running the ads. We send a shipped-work log every month. The performance read comes from someone who is not paid to run the campaigns.
