Social Media Content for Portland Local Businesses

Located in Somerset (South West), Portland takes in the BA16 postcode district and neighbours Middle Leigh, Lower Leigh and Portway. Bridgwater's Guy Fawkes Carnival can be traced back through journalistic records to 1847, making it the oldest event of its kind in the UK, and the town retains the unique tradition of squibbing, giant fireworks held aloft on poles.

Sedgemoor Chamber of Commerce, formerly the Bridgwater Chamber of Commerce, has represented the town's business community since incorporating in 2008 and runs the Bridgwater Town Team promoting the town centre. According to the ONS's own figures, there were 24,665 VAT and/or PAYE registered businesses in the area.

Median gross weekly pay for people working in Somerset was £584 in 2025 (ONS). That's real spending power locally - social media content is how you make sure some of it finds its way to you.

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.
