Social Media Content: Built for Local Businesses in Portobello

Within City of Edinburgh, Scotland, Portobello shares postcode district EH15 with neighbouring Duddingston, Newcraighall and Cleikimin. Edinburgh's Royal Mile runs along the 'crag and tail' left by a glacier scraping past the extinct volcano that Edinburgh Castle now sits on, linking the Castle to Holyroodhouse along five joined streets first named as a single route by a writer in 1901. Squeezed for space within the old town walls, builders had nowhere to go but up, lining the Mile with tenements ten storeys and higher centuries before the word 'skyscraper' existed anywhere else.

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.
