General Questions
1. What does Nota Bene do?
We help coaches, creatives and online service providers get seen online, through Pinterest strategy, social media management, email marketing, and simple-but-effective content planning. We’re not here to make you go viral, we just create social media that works.
2. Why is having an online presence so important?
Because your ideal clients are online. If they can’t find you, they won’t work with you. And visibility builds credibility - if you’re not showing up consistently, you’re missing out on leads, traffic and trust.
3. I hate social media. Do I still need to be online?
Yes. But the good news? You don’t have to do it all. We’ll help you build a presence that works for your business, even if you never want to dance on TikTok or write a caption again.
4. Who does Nota Bene work with?
Mostly women in business, especially coaches, course creators, creatives, and service providers who want to grow without spending hours on creating content. If you’re ready to be seen by the right people, we’re your team.
5. What makes Nota Bene different from other marketing agencies?
We don’t overcomplicate things. We don’t talk in buzzwords. And we don’t sell one-size-fits-all packages. Everything we do is tailored to your goals, your audience, and your energy levels.
Pinterest and Social Media FAQs
6. Why Pinterest? Isn’t that just for recipes and wedding inspo?
Not anymore. Pinterest is a visual search engine, not social media. It’s where people go to plan, and your content can sit there generating traffic for months (even years). It's perfect for service-based businesses.
7. Do I need to be creating new content just for Pinterest?
Nope. We’ll help you take what you already have: blogs, freebies, offers - and turn them into pins that drive traffic and leads. Repurposing is our jam..
8. What’s included in the Pinterest Power Hour?
We jump right into your Pinterest profile, map out what kind of content to pin, and give you a personalised strategy to help you grow, all in one super-focused hour.
9. What’s the Social Strategy Power Session for?
It’s for business owners who are posting without a plan (or posting just because they feel like they should). We help you map out your pillars, plan your next 30 days of content, and build a repurposing system you’ll actually use.
10. Do you manage social media accounts for clients?
Yes! We offer tailored social media management packages that include content creation, scheduling, social inbox management and engagement. You can be as hands-on or hands-off as you like.
11. How do I know if I need help with my social strategy?
If you’re staring at a blank Canva doc most days, only posting when you remember, or unsure what your content is even supposed to do, it’s time for help. (That’s what we’re here for.)
Working With Us
12. Do you offer one-off support or long-term help?
Both! Some people just need a strategy session to get unstuck. Others want ongoing support so they can focus on what they do best while we handle the marketing. We’ve got options for both.
13. Can I just get help with email marketing?
Absolutely. Whether you need a nurture or welcome sequence, a sales email, or a full content plan, we can help you build a list and start communicating with your audience outside of social media.
14. What if I don’t know where to start?
That’s exactly why we offer strategy sessions. We’ll help you figure out what’s working, what’s not, and what to do next, without overwhelming you.
15. Will you make me go viral?
No. We’re not here for vanity metrics. We’re here to help you build a sustainable online presence that attracts the right people and turns them into clients.
Content, Visibility & Value FAQs
16. What’s the point of repurposing content?
To get more reach with less effort. One blog post can become 10+ pieces of content across multiple platforms. We’ll show you how to make it work harder, so you don’t have to.
17. How can I stay consistent on my socials without burning out?
Two words: batching + scheduling. We’ll help you build a plan that works with your actual life, not just the algorithm.
18. Can you help me plan out content in advance?
Yes! It’s one of our favourite things to do. Whether it’s social posts, Pinterest pins or email newsletters, we’ll help you map it all out in a way that’s doable and effective.
19. Do you work with businesses outside of New Zealand?
Yes! We’re based in the North Island of New Zealand, but work with clients all over the world. If you like our work, we’d love to hear from you.
