Social Media Content for Local Businesses in Dalston

Within Hackney, Dalston is a distinct local area. Dalston is an area of East London in the London Borough of Hackney.

London is too large for any one business body to speak for the whole city; its oldest is the London Chamber of Commerce and Industry, founded in 1881 and now representing almost 10,000 businesses, while the Mayor of London's Grow London Local service gives small businesses in any borough free, one-to-one advice. ONS recorded 26,290 VAT and/or PAYE registered businesses in the area.

Median gross weekly pay for people working in Hackney was £795 in 2025 (ONS). That's the kind of local economy social media content is designed to work in.

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

  1. Step 1: Brand session

    A short conversation about your tone of voice, your audience and what is worth posting about.

  2. Step 2: Research

    We look at your audience, your competitors and what has performed before.

  3. Step 3: Monthly batch

    We prepare posts, captions and graphics, with versions for each platform you have chosen.

  4. Step 4: Your approval

    You approve, change or reject every post. Nothing goes out without your say so.

  5. Step 5: Scheduling and publishing

    Approved posts are scheduled and go live on your accounts.
