Social Media Content for Local Businesses in New Lodge
Located in Barnsley (Yorkshire and The Humber), New Lodge takes in the S71 postcode district and neighbours Hoyle Mill, Carlton and Athersley South. Barnsley once had up to 70 collieries within 15 miles, all closed by 1994, and its glassmaking industry dates back to the 17th century, giving rise to the local saying that where there's muck, there's brass and glass.
The most recent ONS snapshot (March 2026) counted 6,910 VAT and/or PAYE registered businesses here. Barnsley & Rotherham Chamber of Commerce has served the local business community for over 100 years and now has 1,100 active members employing over 100,000 people across South Yorkshire.
27.1% of working-age people in Barnsley were economically inactive in 2023 (ONS). That context matters for understanding who's actually available to buy from you, which is exactly what social media content is for.
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.
