To support the MADE | NOUS marketing and communications teams in the development of an effective social media content strategy to help build awareness for the brand and promote its new ambassadors.

Growth and performance of MADE and NOUS's social media channels, as well as the overall notoriety of the ambassadors' campaign.

The team at Toast was very clear in the project's overall timeline, the specific scope and details for every step of the project, and was incredibly thorough in fleshing out each of these strategic steps. They were always very responsive, and quick to address any questions or concerns.

The team at Toast are truly experts when it comes to content marketing strategy. They deeply understand the current media landscape and the client's needs and how a specific action plan can address them.

There's nothing they need to improve on.

We mandated Toast Studio to help us establish the foundation of our new content strategy, which includes both written blog content and social media. More importantly, they supported me, who oversees the team, in establishing a clear vision for content as well as for our team structure and processes. Toast provided a window to have in-depth conversations with its team and content experts and really helped us in grasping the true power of SEO and how to leverage it better.

Project management was solid, with the team proactively providing information our team needed. Never late to a call or meeting!

The people who work there. Everyone on the team is amazing and easy to work with, which makes everything easier.

There seemed to be misalignment when we first started working together but that was really a result of our team not properly briefing the agency and not reacting fast enough when information was requested.

We found in Toast a real expertise in the production of podcasts, but above all a team capable of listening and completely dedicated to delivering a quality product. A wonderful collaboration.

I was impressed by their agility and open-mindedness.

Provide more guidance to the hired facilitator so that he comes better prepared for the recordings.

I’m a marketing manager for a contract research organization.

I needed help creating new videos and designs for our business.

For our primary project with Toast Studio, they helped us create some short videos. First, the team created a branding template for the videos. For one of the videos, they shot video content in our lab and handled the editing and audio mixing process to deliver the final product. For the other three, we provided them with B-roll footage, which they used to produce animated motion videos.

We’ve worked with a project manager, designer, copywriter, and three people from the video production team.

I believe they were referred by another agency we work with.

We’ve invested $25,000–$50,000 CAD (approximately $19,000–$37,000 USD)

We started working together in January 2021, and our engagement is ongoing.

Toast Studio’s efforts have increased our visibility, and we’ve published the videos on our social media channels several times. People have reacted positively to some of the videos and negatively to others.

Toast Studio has orchestrated an organized project management process. They deliver items on time, and we communicate via email. We used Trello at the beginning of the project, but only for a short time.

Toast Studio’s project management skills are their biggest strength.

They could push themselves more when it comes to design.
