About Amigus
What does Agência Amigus do?
+
Agência Amigus manages social media for translation and localisation companies and for healthcare clinics. We handle strategy, content, design, video and reporting, and we also offer Meta ads, LinkedIn ghostwriting and AI visibility audits.
Who founded Agência Amigus?
+
Agência Amigus was founded in January 2025 by Luísa Jacinto, who has a degree in Communication and Media and was previously a project manager at a Portuguese translation company.
Why is the agency called Amigus?
+
Amigus comes from “amigos”, Portuguese for “friends”: the agency was created to help business owners with digital the way a friend would, up close and with trust.
Does Agência Amigus work with clients outside Portugal?
+
Yes. Agência Amigus works with translation and localisation companies across Europe and North America, in English, and with healthcare clinics in Portugal, in Portuguese.
Who is Mangui?
+
Mangui is the Head of Woof at Agência Amigus: Luísa's dog and the four-legged member of the team.
Social media management
Why is the minimum contract six months?
+
The minimum contract at Agência Amigus is six months because organic social media works like going to the gym: results show up after four to six months of consistent work. Only with those results can we adjust the strategy based on data rather than guesswork.
How long does it take to see results on social media?
+
With organic social media, results show up after four to six months of consistent work, just like at the gym. Monthly reports track progress from the first month, and we use that data to fine-tune the strategy.
How much does social media management cost?
+
Agência Amigus prepares a tailored proposal after an initial call, because the price depends on the platforms, the number of posts and whether video filming is needed.
Do you offer discounts for paying upfront?
+
No. Agência Amigus charges a monthly fee and doesn't offer discounts or extras for paying upfront; the six-month minimum contract already secures the commitment on both sides.
Which social media platforms do you work with?
+
Agência Amigus works with LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook and TikTok, and chooses each client's platforms based on their strategy. For translation companies, LinkedIn usually comes first.
Do you run Instagram and Facebook ads?
+
Yes, for clients who already have their social media managed by us. Campaigns are tied to the organic content, and the ad budget is paid separately, directly to Meta.
AI visibility (GEO)
What is GEO?
+
GEO (generative engine optimisation) is the work of getting a business to appear and be recommended in the answers of AI tools such as ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity. It's the equivalent of SEO, but for AI answers.
What is the AI Visibility Audit?
+
The AI Visibility Audit is a one-off service from Agência Amigus that tests 20 to 30 real questions in AI tools, shows whether your business appears and delivers a report with 10 prioritised actions, within 10 working days.
Does the audit guarantee that I'll appear in ChatGPT?
+
No. Nobody can guarantee first place in AI answers, because they change over time and from one question to the next. The audit shows where you stand today and what increases your chances of being recommended.
Speaking
Does Luísa Jacinto speak at events?
+
Yes. Luísa Jacinto spoke at ELIA Together 2026 and has run workshops for the ITI and Women in Localization on social media for the translation industry.
