The social clip is the everything-else format: light, fast, feed-native videos that keep a brand present between campaigns — organic posts, retargeting cutdowns, seasonal moments, product teasers. Its job isn't conversion on contact; it's cadence — and cadence is where production cost compounds hardest. That's the economic case: at ~$2.44 a video, a daily-posting habit costs less per month than one freelancer clip, which turns "we should post more" from a resourcing problem into a workflow setting.

Where social clips earn
- Organic cadence — staying in the feed algorithm's good graces
- Retargeting cutdowns — 6-second reminders cut from winning ads
- Seasonal refreshes — same product, new moment, minutes of work
- Teasers — new SKU announcements without a launch production
The one rule
Native or nothing: 9:16, captions on, sound-optional, first-frame motion. A repurposed horizontal ad reads as an ad; a native clip reads as content.

FAQs
How is this different from UGC?
UGC is a creator-led ad format; social clips are lighter brand content — no presenter required, no hard sell.
What cadence actually matters?
Consistency beats bursts: 3–5 clips a week sustained outperforms 20 in launch week then silence.
