Call these 5 pros for the best social media marketing in Amsterdam

  • Creative: We love agencies that think outside the box. We prioritised those with portfolios full of creative content, fresh campaign ideas, and strategies that help brands stand out.
  • Proven Results: We firmly believe that actions speak louder than words, so we selected agencies that demonstrate tangible achievements, such as increased followers or higher website traffic.
  • Range of Services: We selected agencies that are likely to do more than just posting. They should be able to handle everything from making content to running ads, and analysing data.
  • Communication: We prioritised agencies that excel at both communication and responsiveness. Prompt replies, clear updates, and consistent follow-through were key factors in our assessment.

When we first launched our business on social media, we thought that just posting regularly and using the right hashtags would be enough. Unfortunately, it didn’t work out that way. 

Our engagement was relatively low, and our reach was inconsistent. By that time, we already knew we needed expert guidance. 

That’s when we started our search for the social media marketing experts in Amsterdam who truly understand what makes content resonate and campaigns click.

And we get it—if you’re a brand or startup hoping to grow online, you’re probably searching for the same kind of support. To help you out, here are the top agencies in Amsterdam that specialise in turning content into conversions. 

How much do social media marketing services cost in Amsterdam? 

Social media marketing services in Amsterdam typically cost €75 per hour for basic services, such as graphic design. The total price may vary depending on factors such as the project’s length, scope, and complexity.

Honestly, Brandfirm doesn’t look like a traditional one; it feels like having your own digital team. They’re always available and create a fun, close-knit atmosphere with things like office banter and after-work drinks.

What’s more, they’ve managed social media ads for over 1000 brands, letting you know that they’re skilled at maximising the impact of each click. 

Our friend, who owns an online store, highly recommends Brandfirm’s Google Ads services for advertising, as they really helped ads yield results. 


We also spoke with a past client who was particularly pleased with the company’s targeting strategy, which ensures reaching the right market from the start. The initial analysis helps identify areas where the clients can improve. 


Most importantly, their expertise in international SEO strategies and unique approach to email campaigns is what struck us. They craft personalised messages and boost loyalty programs, all while ensuring that every strategy meets the market needs.

The only downside is that they don’t offer packaged services, so it can be hard if you’re trying to stick to a budget.

Pros

  • 1000+ social media ad campaigns
  • Effective SEO for international markets
  • Thoughtful email marketing execution
  • Free initial campaign analysis

Cons

  • No pre-set service packages 

Great services and amazing staff

“Partnering with Brandfirm has been exceptional! Their enthusiastic team seamlessly integrates with ours, enhancing our workflow. Their structured approach and efficiency make them highly recommendable. Great services and amazing staff. Definitely a top-notch company!”

Delivers top work for online marketing clients 

“Over the last few months we have carried out several translation projects for Brandfirm’s online marketing clients. Communication is excellent and it is clear that they only want to deliver top work to their customers. We hope to continue this collaboration for a long time to come!”

We like Baas & Baas’ straightforward approach. Many former clients can attest to the effectiveness of their data-driven strategies in online marketing, social ads, and web development.

What really sets them apart is their expertise in social media advertising. They’ve got it all covered, from TikTok and Pinterest to Spotify and even WhatsApp. 

They don’t just create and manage ads. They take charge of the entire process, from eye-catching visuals to ongoing optimisation, which we find valuable, especially for newer brands. 

Moreover, in 2023, they partnered with the One-Two agency to enhance their focus on sustainability and create a positive impact on society. This move enhances their appeal to brands seeking to create a positive impact. 

Their lively company culture also deserves a special mention. With daily table tennis matches, the team fosters a dynamic atmosphere that keeps energy levels high and often leads to more innovative campaigns.

Yet again, some employees have raised concerns about micromanagement, which adds pressure beneath the fun exterior. 

Pros

  • Strong expertise in social media advertising
  • Offers full campaign management
  • Focuses on sustainability and social impact
  • Dynamic and creative company culture

Cons

  • Reports of micromanagement issues

Ensures quick responses and proactive thinking 

“We are very satisfied with the collaboration with Baas en Baas. They respond quickly and actively think along. We particularly appreciate the short lines of communication and their quick response to findings. The social media posts were also of good quality. Many thanks Zenna, Stephan and Summer!”

Manages all business aspects beyond social ads 

“Baas & Baas does our social ads and I have been very pleased with their services since I first met them a few years ago. We started with just socials but they now manage almost all aspects of our business. Highly recommended to work with as a starting and established entrepreneur.”

We really admire Webfluencer’s thoughtful and brand-focused approach to digital strategy. 

As a certified Shopify Plus Partner, they have a wealth of experience in managing webshops and optimising conversions for both D2C (direct-to-consumer) and B2B (business-to-business) brands. 

With a track record that includes being named a top digital design agency three times and winning Global Agency Awards, it’s clear they have expertise in their field. 

Additionally, their collection of work features joint projects with well-known brands like Nike, Bacardi, and Toyota.

But what we especially like among the projects they worked on was the Nike x Intersport campaign, where they expertly combined web design, SEO, and CRO to create a successful digital experience.

Another noteworthy project was with MARTINI. They helped create a unique card game, supported the PR efforts through press releases and influencer engagement, and also developed a digital version of the game to reach a broader online audience.

However, it’s worth noting that they tend to focus more on web strategies rather than just social media campaigns. 

Pros

  • Certified Shopify Plus Partner
  • Strong expertise in D2C and B2B webshops
  • Award-winning digital design agency
  • Successful campaigns for major brands

Cons

  • Leans more on web strategies than social media

Delivers a strategic webshop in a short time 

“Very nice collaboration with Webfluencer for the development of our customer’s Webshop: Buiten&Thuis. Strategic thinking, quick action and a great webshop delivered within a very short time! Thank you Jaron for the great collaboration, and here’s to more!”

Facilitates growth with quality and fast communication 

“Webfluencer stands for quality and fast communication. The approach of the services is really aimed at facilitating growth in line with the company’s mission. We have received pleasant advice on how we can better position ourselves online to reach a broader audience. Many thanks.”

5. DRIIVN

DRIIVN’s performance-driven agency collaborates with renowned brands such as Moët & Chandon, a luxury champagne brand, and KFC, the local branch of the global fast-food giant. 

What also stood out most was their willingness to go where others won’t. They’re one of the few agencies still using Twitter (or X, as it’s now called) ads, which surprisingly helped us connect with a niche but engaged audience.

When we tried out their event advertising for a product launch, we immediately saw an increase in ticket sales and brand recognition.

Plus, thanks to their Google Shopping strategy, our webshop finally outperformed the competitors we had been chasing for months. 

And they don’t stop there, they also handle app design (yes, even for festivals and games!) and have some clever pop-up strategies.

While they still support some ageing platforms like Snapchat, it’s worth mentioning that the app has experienced a decline in active users, even though it remains popular among younger users. 

Pros

  • Works with both global and small brands
  • Strong results from Twitter/X ads 
  • Offers a Google Shopping service
  • Offers app design and pop-up services

Cons

  • Still supports outdated platforms

Executes effective social campaigns with speed

“Driven professionals who have done several social campaigns for us with good results.

It’s quick to work with them, they are reliable and fun!”

Drives growth through innovation and insight

“DRIIVN really surprised us with their innovative approach and in-depth knowledge of online marketing. From day one it felt like a collaboration rather than a standard customer-supplier relationship. They continuously analyze, test and improve, allowing us to achieve better results every time. In addition, they actively think about new opportunities and creative strategies that perfectly match our target group. Their enthusiasm and commitment make it a pleasure to work with them. Definitely recommended for those who take growth seriously!”
