A Publisher, Not a Vendor
We run a business that lives or dies on content performance. The work we sell is the work we depend on.
SERVICES
Borrow the Team That Publishes Across Six Cities
An Outsourced Marketing Department, Not an Agency Retainer You Cannot Use.
Everything we do to run The Beat Asia (build the sites, shoot the content, write the copy, manage the channels) we also do for clients. Same in-house people, working on your brand instead of ours. No media buy required.
HOW THIS DIFFERS
Work on Your Channels, Not Ours
Everything else on this site puts your brand in front of our audience. This is the opposite: our team working on the things you own.
ADVERTISING & BRANDED CONTENT
Our Audience
- Published on The Beat Asia
- Reaches our readers and followers
- Measured in reach, clicks and inquiries
- Priced per placement or campaign
SERVICES
Your Channels
- Delivered to you as work product
- Lives on your site, your feeds, your collateral
- Measured against your own business goals
- Priced by project, retainer or embedded team
You can buy this without ever running a campaign with us.

WHY US
We Do This Every Day for Ourselves
One Team, No Subcontracting
We run a business that lives or dies on content performance. The work we sell is the work we depend on.
We Know the Market
Six cities of local knowledge. What lands in Hong Kong is not what lands in Manila, and we already know the difference.
Media Literacy Built In
We know how content performs in feeds and search because we watch our own numbers daily.
FAQ
Questions we get asked
Do we have to advertise with you to use this?
No. These services stand alone. Plenty of clients use us purely as their marketing team and never run a placement.
Who actually does the work?
Our own team. We do not subcontract out and then mark it up — the people on your project are the people who produce The Beat Asia.
Can you work alongside our existing agency?
Yes. We often take the parts an agency does not cover — production, web maintenance, or local-market execution.
What is the smallest thing you would take on?
A single shoot, a landing page, or a month of social management. There is no minimum retainer to start.
Do we own the work?
Yes. Deliverables and their rights transfer to you on final payment, unless we agree otherwise in writing.
Which markets can you cover?
Hong Kong, Singapore, Manila, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur and Macau, with production crews in Hong Kong and Manila.

06

Running your own channels — strategy, calendar, production and community.
