About us.

 

What we are

an extension of your team.

Hey! Good to see you around here. We’re Jacob and Carolina, a creative duo from New Zealand and the founders of F-Stop Social. We’ve been championing businesses worldwide for the last 5 years, helping them define their messaging, spruce up their imagery and hone in on their social strategy. With an academic background in business and marketing, and a keen eye for photography and videography, we’ve been able to merge these two skills to bring unique marketing strategies to brands.

What we’re not

a marketing agency.

We’ll work closely with you to ensure no detail is too small and no goal too big. We’re a small operation, which means we only take on brands that align with our values and that we know we can commit 100% to. It also means we’re flexible — need your ad budget changed ASAP? No problem, we’re on it. Product photography a little lacking? We’ll shoot it. Flash sale? Give us a sec, we’ll have it up on socials in no time. We understand the last-minute workings of a business, and while we’ll always strive to work well in advance, we’re also here to help you when things go a bit sideways.

 

“Jacob & Carolina brought great strength and creativity to our team. Their ability to dive deep into your vision and visually bring it to life through film and photo is world-class. Great to work with and even better human beings.”

— Cam Greenwood, Founder and Managing Director at Zorali

Carolina.

Meet Carolina, the mastermind behind our organic social strategies and aesthetic, eye-catching content. Her strengths are the organic, strategic, and aesthetic side of content marketing. Gorgeous feeds and dreamy photography are her forté and she’s all about creating a cult-worthy brand online. Originally from Portugal, she’s been country-hopping for the last few years before finally settling in beautiful New Zealand… She’ll never say no to a job that requires travel!

 

Jacob.

Meet Jacob, the one who’s usually behind-the-scenes — or, rather, behind the camera — creating and editing videos, or perfecting our paid social strategies. Facebook Ad Management is my strength in this business and I love seeing brands grow beyond the capabilities of organic reach! Together we're able to maximise both organic and paid strategies, and really take brands' visibility to the next level.
