We need to talk about your socials. Yep, the feed you haven’t updated since your 2023 Christmas post. Or the one where every other caption ends in “DM us for more info 👀”.
Don’t worry—no judgement here (okay, maybe a little). The truth is, staying on top of your socials is a full-time job. But that’s where social media management comes in—and spoiler alert: you don’t have to do it all yourself.
Whether you’re in Bolton, Wigan, Bury, Chorley or anywhere across Greater Manchester, I’m here to help your brand actually show up online—and look good doing it.
What Is Social Media Management, Anyway?
Social media management is more than just chucking up a few posts and praying for likes. It’s a planned, consistent approach to keeping your brand visible, engaging, and dare I say… actually converting.
It covers everything from content planning and creation, to scheduling, community management (aka replying to that one guy who comments “Nice 🔥” on everything), and tracking what’s working.
Basically, it’s what I do for businesses who are too busy actually running their business.
Why Bother With Social Media Management?
Great question. If you’re a business owner in Greater Manchester, here’s why this stuff matters:
You’ll show up where your customers are.
Whether they’re scrolling Instagram in a coffee shop in Bury or checking Facebook while waiting for a tram in Bolton—your brand needs to be there.It builds trust.
A quiet or outdated page looks like you’ve shut up shop. A consistent, well-managed feed says “We know our stuff.”You’ll save so much time.
Stop stressing about what to post. I’ll handle the strategy, content, and scheduling—you just keep doing what you do best.It can actually bring in leads.
With the right posts, stories, and calls-to-action, your social media can become a little lead machine (without dancing on TikTok… unless you want to).
What’s Included in Social Media Management?
Every business is different, but here’s what I typically include in my freelance social media services:
Content Strategy – I’ll map out what to post, when to post it, and who it’s for.
Graphics & Captions – Eye-catching visuals and copy that actually sounds human (not corporate bot).
Scheduling – Using tools like Hootsuite to make sure your posts go out consistently—no last-minute panic posting.
Community Engagement – Responding to comments, DMs and all those story reactions with the crying-laughing face.
Reporting & Insights – Monthly updates so you know what’s working and where to tweak.
Who's It For?
Small business owners who want to look pro online without spending their life on Canva.
Local legends in Greater Manchester who know word-of-mouth is great—but being found online is better.
Brands with personality who want their socials to actually reflect that (banter welcome).
Anyone who’s ever said “I just don’t know what to post!” (this one’s for you).
Final Thoughts: Time to Take Your Socials Seriously (Without Doing It Yourself)

I’ll bring the strategy—you bring the brews.
