## Social media is the new search bar

Social platforms have become search engines in their own right. People scroll TikTok for recommendations, search Instagram for inspiration and check Pinterest before they buy, often before they ever type anything into Google.

That means good social media marketing has to do two jobs at once: build genuine community and connection with your audience, and make sure your content is discoverable within the platforms themselves. Every social media marketing strategy we build does just this.

## Our social media services

We're an [SEO agency](/services/marketing/seo/) at heart, but social media is now a modern form of search. That's why we run organic, influencer and paid social under one roof.

## Organic social

With 5.7 billion people on social media, simply being there isn't enough, your brand needs to understand it. That's where we come in. We create content that builds a genuine following and keeps people coming back, while making sure it's discoverable within the platforms your audience already searches.

- Social strategy & content planning

- Community management & scheduling

- Video content & reels

- Imagery & graphic design

- Social search optimisation (TikTok, YouTube, Pinterest)

## Influencer marketing

The right voice can build trust faster than any brand account. We find and manage creator partnerships that feel authentic to their audience and deliver results for you. We’ve recently had the pleasure of working with influential names like Jack P. Shepherd and Miranda Hart.

- Influencer sourcing & outreach

- Campaign management & briefing

- Gifting & collaboration campaigns

- Content usage rights & repurposing

- Performance tracking & reporting

## Paid social

Paid support means your best content reaches further, faster. For the full picture of how we approach targeting, budgets and creative testing, explore our [paid media services](/services/marketing/paid-media/).

- Platform strategy (Meta, TikTok, LinkedIn & more)

- Ad creative & copywriting

- Audience targeting & testing

- Budget management & optimisation

- Reporting tied to ROAS

## Content that works across every channel

Your social content shouldn't exist in a bubble. We work closely with our [content marketing team](/services/marketing/content-marketing/) to make sure your messaging, tone and creativity stay consistent across every channel. Take a look at how it's worked for clients like Crown Clinic and The Miranda Shop.

## Work with us

We're a social media marketing agency based in Manchester, working with businesses worldwide. Whether you need organic content, an influencer campaign or full paid social management, our team can help.

## FAQs

### Why does my business need social media marketing?

Social media is often the first place people discover, research and judge a brand, before they ever visit your website. Being active and visible there builds awareness, trust and, increasingly, search discoverability too.

### How do you grow social media followers?

Consistent, engaging content backed by a clear strategy is what drives real follower growth. We combine content planning, community management and, where it makes sense, paid support to grow an audience that actually engages.

### What's the difference between organic and paid social?

Organic social is the content you post and the community you build for free. Paid social puts budget behind specific content to reach a wider, more targeted audience, faster. We build strategies that use both together.

### How do you measure the success of social media marketing?

We track performance against the goals we agree with you upfront, whether that's reach, engagement, follower growth or conversions, and report on it regularly so you can see exactly what's working.

### Do you offer influencer marketing as a standalone service?

We do! Whether you need a one-off campaign or an ongoing creator partnership, we can run influencer marketing alongside your wider social strategy or as its own project.

### Which platforms do you work across?

We work across the platforms that make sense for your audience, including Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, LinkedIn and Pinterest. We'll help you work out where your audience actually is, rather than spreading you thin across everything.

### What should I look for in a social media marketing agency?

Look for a team that can show real results, not just follower growth, and one that treats organic, influencer and paid as part of the same strategy rather than separate add-ons. Ask to see case studies and how they report on performance.
