Social Media Content for The Island Local Businesses
The Island, in Gloucester, South West, falls under postcode district GL1, near Wotton, Barton and Pool Meadow. Gloucester Cathedral has been a site of continuous Christian worship since 678 to 9AD and its cloisters contain England's earliest fan vaults, while Gloucester Docks made the city England's most inland port.
Gloucester BID, running since 2017, was voted in for a second five-year term in 2022 through to September 2027, funding city centre patrol officers, footfall-driving events and a business directory. According to ONS, there were 3,805 VAT and/or PAYE registered businesses in the area.
4,080 active businesses were registered in Gloucester in 2024 (ONS). That kind of churn is precisely why social media content matters - standing still isn't an option when the market around you isn't.
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.
