SOCIAL MEDIA FOR OMAHA TRADES.
POSTED FOR YOU, EVERY WEEK.

Most trade shops post when they remember to, which tends to be twice in March and then not until next March. Customers still look. They check the Facebook page to see whether you're still in business, and a page whose last post is two years old reads as closed. Smoke Signals keeps it current: posts made from your brand and your real jobs, scheduled ahead, going out on their own.

1. 01

   Your brand, set up once

   We build a set of post templates from your brand kit: your colors, your type, your logo where it belongs. If there's no kit yet, that's Spark first, and the templates come from the same files as the truck.

2. 02

   Your jobs, as they happen

   Email photos of finished jobs whenever you have them, with a line about what the job was. That's the only homework, and a phone is enough for it.

3. 03

   Written, designed and queued

   We draft the captions with AI from your photos, your services and the time of year, set them in your templates and queue the month. A person reads every post before it's scheduled.

4. 04

   Out on their own

   The scheduler posts to Facebook, Instagram and your Google listing at set times through the week. The month's queue comes to you by email first. Change anything, or say nothing and it runs.

• Finished jobs: the before and after, the town, what got fixed
• Reminders that fit your trade and the season, like furnace tune-ups in October and AC checks in May
• Your services one at a time, with the phone number and the link
• New reviews turned into a post, with the customer's first name only
• Holiday hours, a new truck, a new hire, the things regular customers like to see

AI writes the first draft of the words and lays out the design. It never makes a picture of a job. A generated photo of a furnace you didn't install misleads the people you're asking to trust you, and customers can often tell. Every photo of work is a photo of your work. Where a post has no job behind it, like a holiday hours notice, the template is type and color only.

From the $175 tier, short vertical videos are cut from your job photos and clips: the before, the after, your name and number on the end. Short vertical video is what Instagram, Facebook and TikTok are built around now. On the $250 tier there's one every week, and it goes to TikTok and YouTube Shorts as well.

Every tier posts to Facebook, Instagram and your Google Business Profile, so the listing never goes quiet. We don't answer comments or messages for you. Those keep coming to your phone the way they do now, because a customer asking about a quote should hear from you. If your pages need setting up or cleaning up first, that's part of the first month.

Smoke Signals is $100, $175 or $250 a month, month to month, with no setup fee; the templates get built in the first month. Stop any time and the templates and every post are yours to keep using. For the map and the reviews, Beacon is the local SEO plan. Since Smoke Signals already posts to Google, the $50 Afterburn is often all the website needs alongside it.
