We are best known for training and coaching our clients on how to make the most of social media and email marketing, but we also offer a limited number of management services for clients that need to implement quickly and don’t have time to learn the ropes themselves.

Alternatively some of our clients, while recognising the importance of social media, do not have the in-house capacity to manage their own social media activities on an on-going basis. If either of these situations applies to you, read on to see what we can offer:

Social Media Ads Management

Although we can offer this service to support your one-off marketing campaigns, this package is also suitable for businesses that want continuous visibility on social media, or those that are a bit late to the social media game and need to catch up with their competitors.

What you get:

  • Unlimited ads created (we create ads based on your brief – artwork not included)
  • Optimised campaigns (we’ll continuously tweak the ads to get the best results at the lowest cost)
  • Monthly reports (we supply a monthly breakdown of the results achieved as well as suggestions for future campaigns)
  • Monthly strategy call (where we chat about specific elements of your campaign and plan ahead)
      Please note, you are not tied into a minimum contract with us, but we would recommend advertising for at least two months (depending on your budget) because it can take time to learn how specific audiences behave and what creative works best for your target market.

    How it works:

    Option 1 – Monthly Social Media Advertising

    Clients pay a monthly management fee for our services plus an agreed amount to the social network. The advertising budget is payable directly to your social network of choice e.g Facebook, up to your agreed limit, which can be set as a maximum monthly amount.

    For example we charge £300+VAT Management fee (per platform) + Advertising budget (minimum £100 up to a Maximum £1,000). Advertising budgets above £1,000 can be discussed on an individual basis.

    Option 2 – BONUS PACKAGE – 6 Monthly Social Media Advertising

    (LIMITED AVAILABILITY)

    Clients pay for a 6 month management contract (payable in full on commencement of contract) with us, for the special price of £1,500+VAT which means you are getting 1 month FREE!!

    Each social network will still take your advertising budget on demand.

    £1,500+VAT management fee (per platform) + Advertising budget of £100 to £1,000 (per month).

    Advertising budgets above £1,000 can be discussed on an individual basis.

    Social Media Management

    Although we advertise this service on our website, we only take on clients for this service after an initial discussion to see whether or not it would be a good fit for both of us. Social media is best done by the people closest to the business, and that’s you!

    On occasion however, we will speak to business owners or marketers who understand the impact that social media can have on their business but have no time to learn the skills required, or are unable to commit the necessary time for regular social media activity on an on-going basis, and that without our help they would not do it at all. In these circumstances, following an initial discussion with the client, we may decide to offer the service for a limited time period (say 3 months) to see whether the relationship is working out for both of us, before committing to anything longer term.

    To give you a ball-park idea of costs, we typically charge around £250+VAT for managing one channel, then a further £150+VAT per month for any subsequent channels, so for example if you wanted us to manage both your Twitter and Facebook accounts, we would charge £400+VAT per month. Please note that actual costs may vary from this depending on your exact requirements, so if you are interested in having a discussion about this service, click HERE to contact me by using the Contact Page (it can also be accessed on the menu above).
