Local Business Social Media Content in Southwick
Within Sunderland, Southwick is a distinct local area. Southwick is a former village and now a suburb on the north banks of the River Wear in Sunderland, in the county of Tyne and Wear, England, historically in County Durham.
Sunderland BID has put over £6 million into the city centre since 2014, later expanding to cover the Sheepfolds area and launching a separate Seafront BID for the coastal business district. According to ONS's latest snapshot (March 2026), there were 6,085 VAT and/or PAYE registered businesses in the area.
62.1% of new businesses in Sunderland were still trading two years on, as of 2022 (ONS). With that much movement in the local business population, social media content is exactly what helps a business hold its ground.
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.
