Social Media Growth,
Made Simple.

We help purpose-driven businesses grow their reach on Instagram with kindness, integrity, and ease.

Kind Folk are our Kind of Folk

We started Kindfolk because good people deserve good marketing.

In a world of algorithms and endless hustle, marketing can feel overwhelming and well...icky.Often businesses, full of purpose and a passion to do something good in this world, end up feeling like their efforts are simply lost in the fray. They don’t have huge budgets, teams of employees, or fancy equipment and they don’t want to use sleazy sales tactics or trick anyone.But how can they compete with businesses who do?
That’s where we come in.Kindfolk began with the belief that you can grow your impact without losing your integrity (or your weekends).We’re here for the visionaries who lead with purpose.

The hustle feels endless.The tactics feel off.You’re here to make a difference, not trick anyone or chase algorithms.That’s where we come in.Kindfolk began with the belief that you can grow your impact without losing your integrity (or your weekends).

It all started
with a bat rescue station...

As a wedding anniversary gift, my husband, Sebastian, surprised me (Claire) with a visit to a local bat rescue (I love bats!).As we talked with the founders, and got more involved, we quickly realised the rescue station was overwhelmed and struggling with their social media marketing.Two years into posting and their account had only grown to a little over one thousand followers. As a non-profit, they were hoping an Instagram presence would be a source of donations, but all their efforts just weren’t getting what they had dreamed.As luck would have it, we could offer more than 20 years of design, marketing, and innovations experience.With our help, donations 6x’ed in only 3 months, and in six months, the account grew from 1,340 followers to 20k followers, without paid ads or posting every day.

“Our reach and impact have grown beyond what we ever would’ve imagined...

“Our reach and impact have grown beyond what we ever would’ve imagined...

...Thanks to Claire and Sebastian’s creativity and dedication, we gained thousands of new followers, reached millions of views, and even receive donations directly through our social media presence. We are so grateful for their professionalism and the passion they put into every detail."

Sam Cloer, Cofounder of Fledermaus Station Österreich

Seeing the impact our help had was a lightbulb moment...

We realised we could keep working one-on-one with a handful of businesses, or we could take what we did for the bat rescue, and build the tools and resources to help many more succeed on their own. So, we chose the path that creates the biggest ripple of good and Kindfolk was born!
