hello!
I’m Tannis, a communications strategist with 10+ years of experience helping brands stand out.
While “social media manager” has become a dime-a-dozen job title, what sets me apart is that I haven’t just dabbled; I’ve studied it, practiced it, taught it, and built businesses with it. This isn’t a side hustle, it’s been my career, my passion, and honestly, my lifestyle for years.
My journey into marketing started hands-on. I built businesses in fitness coaching and makeup artistry; hosting workshops, running an online coaching program, creating tutorials, and even appearing on TV and at live events to represent and talk about different brands. All of this was happening before ‘content creation’ was even a buzzword, and it’s where I first fell in love with branding, marketing, and the art of connecting people to services that could truly help them!
I also earned a B.A. in Psychology from the University of Manitoba, which gave me a deep understanding of human behaviour (the foundation of all great marketing!). To formalize that passion, I graduated from the Creative Communications program at Red River Polytech in 2016, majoring in PR while training in journalism, advertising, and media production. It was an intense, hands-on program that gave me the toolkit I needed to back up my instincts with real strategy.
From there, I built my career in Saskatoon through roles in a top communications firm, event marketing, economic development, and home development. I also spent several years as the Social Media & Brand Specialist with the Downtown Saskatoon Business Improvement District, where I worked to both promote the district as a whole and support individual businesses.
In 2021, I launched TMCS, and now I get to spend my days working with incredible brands in hospitality, tourism, lifestyle, beauty, and fitness! My team and I create content, campaigns, and strategies that look good and get results. I also love stepping out from behind the screen to lead workshops and trainings for organizations big and small.
At the end of the day, I’m all about making social media feel less intimidating and a lot more human. It’s not just about pretty posts, it’s about connection, understanding people, and helping brands show up in ways that actually matter.
“Eye-Catching visuals
can be the most powerful form of communication in today’s noisy, digital age It’s challenging to stand out, but it’s not impossible.”
My toolbelt is stacked with skills that directly help your business so that you don’t have to hire a marketing strategist, a graphic designer, a copywriter AND a photographer for your socials. I can take care of all your social content needs – all you have to do is ask.
“I hired Tannis to write creative copy for Rocking Vibe’s social channels and it was a pleasure to work with her. Tannis puts her heart and soul into the task assigned, and the results in her work speak for themselves. Tannis is a take charger person who is able to present creative ideas, communicate the benefits, and execute them. I’d highly recommend working with Tannis to help elevate your social media presence.”
