Social Media Content: Built for Local Businesses in St Helens
St Helens became a global glass manufacturing centre thanks to local coal, quality sand and nearby Cheshire salt, and Pilkington Brothers, founded there in 1826, still produces all UK flat glass today.
St Helens Chamber, founded in 1989, is now in liquidation, so local businesses are more commonly represented through the wider Liverpool Chamber of Commerce, active since 2010. ONS recorded 4,755 VAT and/or PAYE registered businesses in the area.
Gross disposable household income per head in St Helens Metropolitan Borough Council was £21,753 in 2024 (ONS). That's the kind of local economy social media content is designed to work in.
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.
