Amsterdam, Noord-Holland
Social media agency Amsterdam
In Amsterdam the bar for visuals and text is high and the competition for attention is fierce. We make sure your content can hold its own, with a steady rhythm and a recognisable style of your own.
The city
Doing business in Amsterdam
Amsterdam combines a dense concentration of head offices with a large layer of small, fast-growing businesses. On the Zuidas you find law, financial services and consultancy; in the centre and the ring around it you find online stores, brands, agencies, publishers, hospitality and creative makers. For that second group social media is rarely a side issue: it is often the first channel where a client sees and judges the brand.
That also makes the city difficult. Your audience sees a lot of professional content here every day, and mediocre visuals drop out faster than elsewhere. At the same time there is no need to compete on production value with agencies that have dozens of makers. What does work is consistency, a clear angle of your own and content that is actually about something: how a product comes about, why you do things differently, who is behind the brand.
Language plays a part too. Many Amsterdam businesses serve both a Dutch and an international audience, with staff and clients who do not speak Dutch. We decide per channel in advance which language leads, so you do not switch halfway and split your reach over two languages that neither come across well.

Sectors
Where we make the most difference in Amsterdam
What works differs per sector: the channel, the tone and the kind of content. Below you can see how we fill that in for this region.
Online stores and brands
Product content, seasonal campaigns and user visuals. For online stores the line from post to product page is short, so advertising and organic content strengthen each other directly.
More about this sectorHospitality
Restaurants, coffee bars and hotels compete here mainly on atmosphere and being current. Today's visuals, menu changes and the team behind the bar do more than a fixed monthly calendar.
More about this sectorProfessional services and law
Firms on and around the Zuidas use LinkedIn to share knowledge and attract talent. Personal content from partners and advisers structurally performs better there than corporate posts.
More about this sectorFreelancers and small agencies
The city has many independent specialists: photographers, coaches, designers, advisers. For them a recognisable profile and a steady content rhythm is often the difference between waiting for work and being asked.

Practices in the city and in Amstelveen or Diemen recruit both patients and staff. Informative content and practice details work here within the rules for medical communication.

Sound familiar?
This is what we hear from business owners in Amsterdam
Your content looks tidy, but does not stand out among everything your audience already sees here.
You post when it suits, so no rhythm develops and reach has to be built up from scratch every time.
You are unsure whether to publish in Dutch or English and are now doing a bit of both.
Advertising does deliver clicks, but you do not know which content actually delivers enquiries or orders.
Our approach
What we do in practice for businesses in Amsterdam
- 01
Finding your own angle
We first work out what you do differently from the rest and build the content line around that. Without that starting point, content in this city quickly looks like everyone else's.
- 02
Setting the language per channel
Dutch, English or both: we set out per channel which language leads and stick to it consistently, so your reach is not fragmented.
- 03
A steady rhythm instead of peaks
You get a calendar with fixed publishing moments. That delivers more than an occasional run of posts followed by weeks of silence.
- 04
Content and advertising in step
We first test organically which visuals and which message land, and then put advertising budget behind what demonstrably works. You pay that budget directly to the platform.
- 05
Measuring through to the enquiry
In your monthly report you see not only reach, but also what happened next: profile visits, clicks to the site and enquiries or orders.
Direct answers about social media in Amsterdam
- What does a social media agency in Amsterdam cost?
- With us, Zichtbaar costs € 349 per month, Groei € 599 and Impact € 899 per month. Agency+ starts from € 1,250 per month. All prices exclude 21% Dutch VAT, with a one-off onboarding of € 199. You always pay the advertising budget directly to the platform, so there is no mark-up on it.
- What does a social media agency in Amsterdam do?
- The agency sets the strategy, makes and plans the content, publishes on your channels, answers comments and messages, manages any advertising and reports every month. In this city the emphasis is often on visual quality, rhythm and a clear angle of your own.
- What is included?
- Strategy, content calendar, copy, image editing and video editing, publishing, profile optimisation and a monthly report in the client portal. You approve all content in advance and stay the owner of your accounts. Advertising management and content days are separate services.
- Which businesses in Amsterdam is this suitable for?
- For online stores, hospitality, practices, professional services and freelancers with serious ambition, usually with 1 to 50 employees. For large brands with their own content team we are rarely the obvious choice.
- When can you expect results?
- The first month goes on strategy, profiles and the first run of content. Visibly more reach and interaction usually comes in month two and three. For online stores, advertising can deliver revenue sooner, as long as the product pages and the offer are in order.
- Which KPIs do you measure?
- Reach, engagement, follower growth, profile visits, website clicks and enquiries or orders through social media. With advertising, cost per click, cost per lead and, where measurable, revenue from advertising are added.
