About Validus Media
Built for New Jersey Businesses
We started Validus Media because too many good local businesses were getting overlooked online while their competitors grew.
01Our Story
Validus Media LLC was founded in New Jersey with a simple goal — help local businesses build a real, professional presence on social media without the confusion, the wasted ad spend, or the inconsistency that comes with doing it alone. We're locally owned and operated, which means we understand the businesses we work with because we're part of the same community.
02Our Approach
Every plan we offer starts with the basics and grows from there. We don't believe in one-size-fits-all packages — every account is managed with a strategy built around your specific brand voice, your specific customers, and your specific goals. As your business grows, we grow with you, unlocking new platforms and deeper strategy along the way.
Real Strategy
No templates, no guesswork — every account is planned around your actual business goals.
You Stay in Control
You always own your accounts. We manage them — we never lock you out.
New Jersey Roots
Locally based, so we understand the market we're helping you grow in.

AI Integrations
Nothing Falls Through the Cracks
Automated systems that answer your calls, follow up on your leads and quotes, and bring past customers back — so nothing slips by while you're busy running your business.
AI Voice Receptionist
Every call answered, day or night. No more missed calls going to a competitor because you were on a job site, with a customer, or asleep.
AI Lead Follow-Up
New inquiries get a response in seconds, not hours. The business that replies first usually wins the job — now that's always you.
AI Estimate Follow-Up
Quotes don't get forgotten. Every estimate you send gets followed up automatically until you get a yes or a no, instead of sitting in someone's inbox.
AI Customer Re-Engagement
Win back the customers who quietly disappeared. Automated check-ins bring past customers back before they become someone else's regular.

Business Audits · GEO
Find Out What AI Says About You
People are asking ChatGPT and Google’s AI for recommendations instead of scrolling search results — and most local businesses have never checked whether they show up. We check exactly what AI says about you, and what it would take to change it. That work is called GEO — Generative Engine Optimization, the AI-era counterpart to SEO. When someone asks an AI assistant to recommend a business like yours nearby, is yours the one it names?
GEO — AI Search Visibility
Whether ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Google’s AI answers can find, read and recommend your business — and what is stopping them if they can’t.
Your first visibility check is free. Full audits and ongoing monthly plans are available once you know what needs fixing.

Questions
Straight Answers
How much does social media management cost?
Plans start at $299 a month for Facebook management and run to $3,199 a month for full multi-platform management with reputation and Google Business Profile included. There is a one-time $650 setup fee, which can be split across three months.
Do I own my social media accounts?
Yes. You retain full ownership of your accounts, your content and your advertising accounts at all times. Nothing transfers to us, during the agreement or after it.
How long am I committed for?
Three months minimum, then month to month with 30 days written notice. The three months exist because social media results are not visible in two weeks.
What is a business audit?
A review of how your business appears online — to search engines, to AI assistants like ChatGPT, and to customers checking your reviews. Your first visibility check is free. Full audits and ongoing monthly plans run from $500 to $1,500.
What is AI search optimization?
People increasingly ask ChatGPT, Claude or Google’s AI answers for recommendations rather than scrolling search results. Being visible there depends on different things than traditional search, and most local businesses have never been set up for it.
How quickly do you start?
We can have a business up and running within the first week once the setup fee clears and we have access to your accounts.
Do you run ads too?
Yes. Your ad budget goes directly to Meta, Google or TikTok on your own card and never passes through us. We charge 18% of the budget to manage it, dropping to 15% after six continuous months.
Do you work with businesses outside New Jersey?
Our focus is South Jersey — Berlin, Cherry Hill, Haddonfield, Medford, Mount Laurel and Voorhees Township. Get in touch if you are nearby and we will tell you honestly whether we are the right fit.
