About Alpha Social Media

The ones who keep the algorithm fed

Same people on your account from day one.

We started in 2018 because too many good companies were paying for digital media that looked busy and did nothing. We shoot, design, build and run the work in house, so the people planning your content are the same people making it.

Our story

I kept seeing the same thing happen.

Founded 2018 · Springfield, Missouri
Good businesses, restaurants, law firms, product brands, service companies, would hire someone or try to do it themselves and end up with social media that looked busy but never actually worked. Posts went up. Ads ran. Nothing really moved.
I got tired of watching that cycle.
So I built the kind of team I wished every growing company had access to: people who show up, care about the mission, and are gifted at what they do. We treat every account like it has a real voice and real goals, not just a content calendar to fill.
Today we help mid-sized businesses turn social media into something that actually produces results through clear strategy, strong video, smart paid ads, and consistent execution. No fluff. No vanity metrics. Just work that makes sense for the business.
If you are ready for social media that feels intentional instead of obligatory, we are the team for it.

How we work

Four things we refuse to compromise on.

Most agencies sell you a plan and subcontract the making of it. We built the opposite. These are the rules the whole team runs on, and they are the reason clients stay.

In house

We make the work, not just the plan

Strategy without production turns into a document nobody reads. Our shooters, designers and developers sit in the same room, so what gets planned on Monday gets made that week.

One team

You talk to the people doing the work

No account manager relaying your notes to a stranger. The person on your call is the person cutting your footage or writing your ad copy, and they already know your business.

Direct accessNamed teamNo handoffs
Straight answers

We tell you when something is not working

If a channel is not earning its budget we say so and move the money. We would rather lose a line item than let you keep paying for activity that only looks like progress.

Local

Three markets, one bench

Springfield, Overland Park and Bentonville. Close enough to turn up on site for a shoot, deep enough to run paid media for brands selling on Walmart, Sam's Club and Amazon.

The team

Everything is handled in house.

Strategy, photography, video, design, media buying and development are all ours. The one exception is a client far enough from our three locations that someone needs to be on the ground there, and we tell you upfront when that is the case.

Rich Haik

Founder
Rich has been building websites for fifteen years, running social for ten, and making media since he was a kid. He started Alpha to build businesses, and the best part of the job is still sitting down with an owner to work out what would actually move theirs.
Ben Horch

Marketing & Operations
Ben has built several businesses of his own and knows how to grow one on more than a single revenue stream. He runs our operations so the work moves without drag and the team actually likes showing up.

Ten years behind a camera, including stints at other social and paid media shops before he landed here. Cameron works directly with clients to pull out what they are actually picturing, then goes and shoots it.
John Ashley

John Ashley

Paid Ads Specialist
John has written seven novels, which is part of why our ad copy sounds like a person wrote it. He is certified with Meta and Google and takes the pragmatic route every time, picking what works over what sounds clever.

Nine years of video and a real instinct for story. O'Shay will shoot the brief you handed him, then come back with a cut you did not think to ask for.

Kylo Ren Haik

Director of Barketing
Kylo is the office dog and runs the mood around here. He is the reason everyone gets up from their desk, and the dopamine hit that keeps the creative work coming.
