Social Media Content: Built for Local Businesses in Pickering
Pickering, in North Yorkshire, is a real place with its own identity. Pickering is a market town and civil parish in North Yorkshire, England, on the border of the North York Moors National Park.
Harrogate District Chamber of Commerce has been the voice of business across the district since 1896, working alongside Harrogate BID, which funds shop-front improvement grants and town centre events. According to ONS's official count, there were 32,555 VAT and/or PAYE registered businesses in the area.
8.4% of businesses in North Yorkshire were newly started ('born') in 2024 (ONS business demography). In a market changing that fast, social media content is what keeps a business visible instead of lost in the churn.
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.
