Social Media Content for The Gyle Local Businesses
The Gyle sits within City of Edinburgh, Scotland, covering the EH12 postcode area, with Carrick Knowe, West Craigs and Hermiston close by. 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.
Essential Edinburgh runs the city centre's Business Improvement District, covering New Town from Charlotte Square to the St James Centre, while the separately run Edinburgh Chamber of Commerce brings together more than 800 businesses citywide. According to the area's ONS-recorded business count, there were 18,635 VAT and/or PAYE registered businesses in the area.
Workers in City of Edinburgh produced £56.26 of economic value for every hour worked in 2023 (ONS). Local spending power like that is exactly the audience social media content is built to reach.
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.

Questions from The Gyle businesses
Is Social Media Content available to businesses around The Gyle and Roseburn?
Yes. There's nothing about The Gyle's own postcode (EH12) that changes how we deliver this - the same goes for businesses in Roseburn too.
Is this relevant to The Gyle's own business community?

That's the market you're competing in across the Edinburgh travel-to-work area.
