Social media and community management in Lyon — Grow your audience on social networks

Social media, an essential lever in 2026

Which platform for which goal?

Every social network has its own strengths and audience. Instagram is the king of visual B2C content — ideal for restaurants, shops, craftspeople and creative businesses in Lyon. LinkedIn dominates B2B and professional services — perfect for consultants, firms and service providers. Facebook remains relevant for local communities, events and neighbourhood retail. TikTok reaches a younger audience with short, viral video formats. We help you choose the platform or platforms that will pay off best for your business in the Lyon metropolitan area.

Organic vs paid: the right mix

The organic (free) reach of social media posts declines every year. In 2026, an organic Facebook post reaches on average 5 to 6% of your followers. To extend your reach, the most effective strategy is high-quality organic content combined with targeted paid promotion. We handle both: organic content for engagement and credibility, and paid campaigns for reach and conversion. Discover our online advertising service in Lyon.

Social media and SEO: the overlooked synergies

Social media does not directly influence Google rankings, but it creates powerful indirect signals: traffic to your website, content shares, brand mentions, natural backlinks and awareness that turns into branded searches. An active social presence complements and reinforces your SEO strategy in Lyon. The two levers feed each other to maximise your online visibility.

Our social media services

Social media audit and strategy

We start with a full audit of your current social presence: existing profiles, published content, engagement, audience, competitors and opportunities. On that basis, we define a tailored social media strategy with clear objectives, measurable KPIs and an editorial positioning that suits your brand. Round it off with our comprehensive strategic consulting.

Content creation (visuals, video, copywriting)

Together with our creative partners, we produce all your social content: graphics sized for each platform, educational carousels, short videos (reels, stories, TikTok), infographics and engaging copy. Every piece respects your visual identity and tone of voice. We can add motion design animation for even more striking content.

Community management and moderation

We manage day-to-day interactions with your community: replies to comments, private messages, review management and moderation. Every interaction is an opportunity to strengthen your relationship with customers and show how responsive you are. We follow a response protocol tailored to your brand to keep your communication consistent.

Social advertising campaign management

We create and optimise your paid campaigns on Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn. Interest targeting, geotargeting (Lyon, specific neighbourhoods, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes), lookalike audiences and retargeting — every campaign is designed to maximise conversions within your budget. Discover our full online advertising service.

Monthly reporting and recommendations

Every month, you receive a full performance report with our analysis and recommendations. We identify your best-performing content, the optimal posting times and the trends worth pursuing. A 30-minute monthly call lets us review progress and adjust the strategy for the following month.

What we deliver every month

Monthly content calendar approved in advance

At the start of each month, we present the content calendar for the next 4 weeks. Every post is planned with its theme, format (image, carousel, video, story), copy and hashtags. You approve the schedule before anything is published — no surprises. Changes and adjustments are incorporated in real time.

Regular posts according to your plan

Consistency is the key to success on social media. Our community management plan includes 2 to 3 posts a week; a higher frequency is quoted on request. Every post is optimised for the platform's algorithm: the right format, strategic hashtags, an analysed posting time and a clear call to action. A variety of formats (image, video, carousel, text) keeps your audience interested.

Stories and short-form formats, on request

Stories and short-form formats (Instagram reels, shorts) have become essential for sustaining engagement. On a quotation basis, we add weekly stories and monthly reels that show what goes on behind the scenes, present your products and give your brand a human face.

Monthly performance report

Each month you receive a clear, visual report with the key metrics: follower growth, engagement rate, reach, impressions, clicks and conversions. We add our analysis, the month's trends and our recommendations for improving performance the following month.

Social media for small businesses and SMEs in Lyon

Example results in the restaurant sector

A Lyon restaurant we work with tripled its weekend bookings in 3 months thanks to an Instagram strategy built on professional food photography, daily behind-the-scenes kitchen stories and recipe reels. Authentic, regular content created a snowball effect: more followers, more shares, more local visibility, more bookings.

Example results in the craft sector

A cabinetmaker in Vaise expanded his customer base beyond Lyon with videos of his workshop craftsmanship posted on Instagram and TikTok. In 6 months, he gained 2,500 qualified followers and now receives orders through his online shop from across the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. Craft storytelling and short-form video are the keys to his success on social media.

How we adapt the tone to your brand

Every brand has its own personality. A law firm doesn't communicate like a hair salon. We create a tailored editorial line that reflects your values, your expertise and your closeness to your customers. The tone can be expert and reassuring, friendly and approachable, or bold and offbeat — you decide, we deliver. Discover how your visual identity carries across your social media.
