Paid social consultant

Paid social, simplified.

I'm Grace Alimo — 5 years running paid social for everyone from national CPG brands to fast-growing DTC labels. One campaign drove $207K in tracked Amazon sales; another sold out a client's product run entirely through paid social. Meta, TikTok, LinkedIn, and beyond, run by one strategist who treats your budget like her own.

What paid social actually does

The right people, the right message, on purpose.

Paid social ads are sponsored posts on platforms like Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok — built to reach specific people based on their interests, behaviors, and demographics, not just whoever happens to scroll past. Done well, it's the difference between a campaign that "gets impressions" and one that gets your product sold out.

Unlike organic content, every dollar is targeted and trackable. I've watched a well-run campaign move $207K in attributed sales and clear an entire inventory run — that's what happens when targeting, creative, and budget pacing are all pulling in the same direction.

Platforms I run
  • Meta (Instagram & Facebook) — full-funnel prospecting and retargeting
  • TikTok — creative-led campaigns built for a scroll-fast audience
  • LinkedIn — B2B lead gen and account-based targeting
  • Pinterest & beyond — for brands with a visual, intent-driven audience
Services

Resources

Paid social, explained plainly.

Quick-reference guides on the concepts clients ask about most. More added regularly.

Fundamentals

CPM vs. CPA vs. ROAS

The three metrics every client asks about and mixes up. A plain-language breakdown of what each one measures and when to care about it.

Strategy

How to read a media plan

What's actually in the document your consultant hands you — platform mix, budget allocation, KPI targets — and the questions worth asking about it.

Creative

Why the same ad dies on TikTok and wins on Meta

Platform-native creative isn't a nice-to-have. A look at how format and pacing expectations differ across feeds.

Budgeting

How much should you actually spend?

A framework for sizing a first paid social budget based on your goals, not a rule of thumb pulled from a random blog.

Targeting

Interest targeting is dying. Here's what's replacing it

Why broad + creative-led targeting is outperforming narrow interest stacks on most platforms right now.

About

One strategist. No account managers in between.

Five years ago I started running paid social inside agencies, on budgets big enough that a wasted dollar actually mattered — national CPG launches, retail partners, brands most people would recognize. I've since driven $207K in tracked Amazon attribution sales on a single campaign and helped sell out a client's entire product run using paid alone. I set out on my own to build something more direct: no hand-offs between strategist and client, no junior account manager relaying updates from someone you've never met. Just me, running your campaigns.

GAM is built on three things: honest, data-backed recommendations; genuine relationships with the brands I work with; and a habit of testing before assuming. I'd rather find what actually works for your audience than chase whatever's trending this week — that's how a scrappy DTC budget ends up outperforming ones ten times its size.
