Social commerce

Instagram and TikTok-ready kits with claim-safe captions, sized for how SA buyers actually scroll.

How it works

Feed-to-team handoff

Social commerce fails when captions over-promise and size charts under-deliver. We build kits that keep those two in the same folder.

Beauty, sport, and fashion basics get claim screens before creative goes live. That sounds fussy. It saves the Monday after a viral weekend.

Each kit links a shortlist, a photo pack, and a soft CTA back to your DTC or WhatsApp shop, so the scroll has somewhere calm to land.

Who it’s for

Teams that use social kits

  • Social-first brands that still need supplier honesty underneath the feed.
  • Marketplace sellers testing paid social without a second ops team.
  • Creator-led programmes that want disclosure-safe packs from day one.

SA notes

SA scroll and stock realities

SA audiences notice when fabric notes and size charts dont match the try-on. We keep those notes next to the caption brief.

Power cuts can cut a live shoot short. Keep a still fallback set so the calendar doesnt collapse.

Coastal humidity affects beauty and fabric samples in Cape Town and Durban. Pack notes travel with the kit.

Failure modes

Where social listings misfire

  • Running ads on a crop the PDP no longer uses.
  • Skipping size charts because the creative felt lifestyle.
  • Letting creators invent claims mid-story.
  • Opening TikTok and Instagram with two different return scripts.

Next step

Send the brief and shortlist

Bring your current seller notes to the contact form, including product type, channel mix, and whether the click should land on DTC or WhatsApp. If you need a face-to-face working session, use a regional desk slot to review supplier shortlists, caption risks, and image gaps.
