the client

Wipaire is a seaplane float manufacturer based in South St. Paul, Minnesota, best known for its Wipline floats.

But the business spans far beyond one product line, with aircraft sales and brokerage, interiors, avionics, paint and refinishing, and maintenance and restoration services all under the same roof.

Since March 2026, Avian Creative has partnered with Wipaire to manage its social media presence across Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and YouTube, helping the brand tell the full story of everything it does.

the Challange

Wipaire came to Avian Creative with genuinely compelling content already in hand, but their social channels had settled into telling one story: Wipline floats.

With a business that also includes brokerage, interiors, avionics, and a close relationship with wildfire aircraft brand Fire Boss, the brand needed a partner who could round out that story while keeping every channel active and consistent. Wipaire’s team didn’t have the bandwidth to manage social media in house, so they came to Avian Creative for a partner to take over planning, posting, and reporting across every platform.

Audience Today

Five months, no paid spend.

An engagement rate well above typical industry benchmarks shows this audience is not just seeing the content, they are responding to it.

Consistent engagement growth across every platform points to a content strategy that is working everywhere, not just on the brand’s strongest channel.

The work itself

The whole business, not just the floats.

Where Wipaire’s channels once centered almost entirely on Wipline floats, the content calendar now includes aircraft interiors, avionics, paint and refinishing, maintenance, and wildfire aircraft brand Fire Boss, alongside the float product that built the brand. A broader story means every part of Wipaire’s business gets visibility, not just its most well-known product.

 

Fire Boss content, covering wildfire response and firefighting missions, has been some of the strongest-performing content on the channel, which is a clear sign there is real appetite for Wipaire to tell this story more. Expanding that approach across the business creates a social presence that better reflects everything Wipaire has to offer, while building a stronger foundation for brokerage, interiors, and other service lines to grow their own audiences over time.

What we do

The work, and what it actually delivered.

01. Social Media Management

Facebook Page Follows
0

Nearly doubling an established brand’s Facebook following in just five months, rather than starting from zero, shows content that is genuinely resonating with an audience that already knew the name.

02. Content Strategy & Storytelling

We work with Wipaire’s existing content library and shape it into a strategy that reflects the full breadth of the brand, from Wipline floats to interiors, avionics, and Fire Boss wildfire operations, rather than a single product story.

Facebook Reach
0 K

Reach growth at this scale, entirely organic with zero paid spend behind it, shows how far consistent, well planned content can travel on its own.

03. Reporting & Analytics

We track performance across every channel on an ongoing basis, using the data to guide what content comes next and where the audience is responding most.

Facebook Post Engagements
0

Shares and saves, not just likes, are a stronger signal of content people find worth passing along or coming back to.

04. Campaigns & Community Engagement

We planned and ran a giveaway to celebrate National Seaplane Day, giving Wipaire’s audience a reason to engage directly with the brand beyond scrolling past a post.

Instagram Shares

A broader, more engaged audience gives Wipaire a stronger base to reach across all of its service lines, not just floats.

Reach & Visibility

Strong reach on LinkedIn puts Wipaire’s story in front of an audience built largely from aviation and aerospace, exactly where relationships that support brokerage and interiors work get made.

Video content, on Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube alike, is doing the heavy lifting for visibility, a strong signal for where Wipaire’s story is landing.

Strategic Storytelling

What we post and why it works.

A wider range of content themes keeps channels feeling active and relevant well beyond a single product cycle, while also creating more opportunities to connect with the audience in meaningful ways.

For example, the National Seaplane Day giveaway turned a seasonal moment into a two-way interaction with the audience, rather than just another post to scroll past. Founder and team tributes, including recent posts honoring Wipaire’s leadership, further build authenticity by connecting the brand to the people behind it. At the same time, seasonal and event-based content, like AirVenture Oshkosh coverage, helps keep Wipaire visible during the moments its audience is already paying attention.

Where we are today

A fuller story than the one we started with.

Avian Creative continues to manage full content planning, posting, and reporting for Wipaire, and we’re looking forward to extending that support to Fire Boss, whose wildfire response content is already resonating strongly with Wipaire’s audience.
