What each agency actually does
What is SociallyIn
SociallyIn runs the whole feed. Founded in Atlanta in 2011, it is a brand-side agency that takes on a company's entire social presence rather than one-off influencer drops, covering strategy, content, community, paid and influencer across Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and Facebook. Creative-first and fully focused on social, it works national brands like Samsung, Nikon and Dick's Sporting Goods from offices in Atlanta, Birmingham, Dallas and Los Angeles.
Pricing runs on project and retainer scopes. Against MG Empower, SociallyIn manages a brand's full social program where MG Empower delivers global integrated campaigns. MG Empower is profiled next. A brand that would rather run a creator search itself at a flat price has a third route.
What SociallyIn does well
- Runs a brand's whole social
- Strategy through influencer
- Creative-first, national reach
- Four US offices
Where it falls short
- No public pricing
- Managed service not self-serve
- Social program not pure influencer
- Not a discovery tool
What is MG Empower
MG Empower is the global integrated shop here. Founded in London in 2017 by Maira Genovese, a veteran of American Express, YSL and Burberry, it started in influencer marketing then widened into social, experiences, strategy and creative under one roof. Work has touched more than a billion people across 40-plus territories and 17 languages, backed by an in-house influencer CRM holding over a million profiles. Clients run from TikTok and Ford to Porsche and Chopard. Amyris acquired it in 2021. The agency kept running into 2026 from London and New York.
Pricing is private with a roughly $10,000 floor. So where SociallyIn owns a brand's social channels, MG Empower builds integrated campaigns at global scale. One is social management. The other is integrated reach. For a brand that wants verified discovery at a flat price, there is a third path.
What MG Empower does well
- Integrated under one roof
- 1B+ reach, 17 languages
- Million-profile influencer CRM
- London and New York offices
Where it falls short
- No public pricing
- Roughly $10,000 floor
- Managed service not self-serve
- Owned by Amyris since 2021
