Social Media Content for Local Businesses in Colton
In Leeds's corner of the Yorkshire and The Humber region, Colton covers postcode district LS15 and borders Colton Common, Cross Gates and Whitkirk. Leeds Kirkgate Market, one of Europe's largest covered markets, began as an open-air market in 1822 and is the birthplace of Marks & Spencer, founded here in 1884 when Michael Marks set up a 'penny bazaar' stall with the slogan 'Don't ask the price, it's a penny'. Today the Victorian market hall still holds over 800 stalls and draws more than 100,000 visitors a week.

About Social Media Content
Social Media Content is our monthly service for owners who would rather run their business than stare at an empty caption box. We think of the ideas, write the words and design the graphics, then send every batch to you for approval before anything goes out.
How it works, start to finish
Step 1: Brand session
A short conversation about your tone of voice, your audience and what is worth posting about.
Step 2: Research
We look at your audience, your competitors and what has performed before.
Step 3: Monthly batch
We prepare posts, captions and graphics, with versions for each platform you have chosen.
Step 4: Your approval
You approve, change or reject every post. Nothing goes out without your say so.
Step 5: Scheduling and publishing
Approved posts are scheduled and go live on your accounts.
