Social Media Management in Allestree, Derbyshire

In Allestree most of your customers live a few streets away, so social media here is about being the name people already recognise. I’m five miles up the road in Belper. I film your place and your people once a quarter and make the posts from that.

Is there anyone who does social media for businesses in Allestree?

Yes, North Bear Media, about five miles away in Belper. Norton Hunt comes down to Allestree and northern Derby businesses once a quarter to film and photograph them, and the posts are made from that, with the replies handled. It’s part of Found & Filmed at £995 a month, and the £295 Marketing MOT is the place to start.

A suburb where your customers are mostly just round the corner.

Allestree’s a leafy, settled place on the north edge of Derby, with the A6 and the A38 right there.

It’s a local job. Posts with your own place and your own people in them do far more for a neighbourhood business than polished stuff that could have come from anywhere, and Allestree Park in the background of a few of them doesn’t hurt.

Social works best here alongside your Google Business Profile, your listing with the map pin and the reviews on. When somebody sees you in their feed and then searches for you, they find the same business with the same photos, and it all joins up. I set both up to do exactly that.

So how would you get me doing yours?

It comes through Found & Filmed, at £995 a month.

You get me down at yours once a quarter with the camera. I edit what we’ve filmed, put captions on it, and it gets posted over the following months. For an Allestree business, being found on Google and in AI search is in it too, and the two feed each other. You’ve got a business to run, so I take the whole lot off your hands.

It’s rolling monthly with 30 days’ notice either way, so if it isn’t working you stop. It costs far less than a full-time hire, with no training, and I bring the kit. Anything outside it, new words for your website or an email campaign, I scope as a project and price first.

Want to know where you stand before you spend anything monthly? The MOT’s £295. It checks your social and your Google listing, and puts you next to two other businesses round you so you see how you compare.

How it goes.

It’s the same each quarter.

  1. 01 //

    Your patch

    I start with who buys from you and where they are online, which for most Allestree businesses is close to home, and I look at your pages as they are.

  2. 02 //

    Filming at yours

    I come down and film and photograph your place and the people in it, so you’re not leaning on stock photos.

  3. 03 //

    Posting

    It’s edited and captioned, then scheduled to go out steadily, and comments get answered as they come in.

  4. 04 //

    The monthly call

    You get a report each month and we go through it on a call, looking at what’s doing something for the business, not what just got liked.

Some recent stuff I’ve posted for.

This is from a day I set up for Ginger Butchers in Matlock. I arranged for the Mayor to come in and got BBC Radio Derby down, then it all went out on their socials the same week.

Common questions about social media management in Allestree.

How much does social media management cost in Allestree?

Social media management in Allestree is £995 a month, because it comes as part of Found & Filmed. That pays for me coming down to film at your place once a quarter and for the posting and replies in between, and it rolls on monthly until one of us gives 30 days’ notice. The £295 Marketing MOT is a separate one-off if you want to start there.

Which platforms do you manage?

Facebook is the main one for a neighbourhood business in Allestree, with Instagram alongside it. LinkedIn only matters if you sell to other firms, so I won’t push you onto it otherwise.

How many posts per week?

There’s no weekly number. The amount comes from what we get on each filming day, and for a neighbourhood business a steady flow of posts people recognise does more than a flood of them.

Do I need to provide content?

No. I film and photograph it when I come down each quarter, so it’s your own place and people, not stock. If you’ve got good photos of your own, send them over and I’ll use them too.

Can we meet in person?

Yes, I come to you. I’m five miles away in Belper, so it’s no trouble, and a call’s fine too if that suits you better.

A few other things I do for businesses in Allestree, if social’s not the only thing on your list.

P200// OVER TO YOU

When somebody in Allestree looks for what you do, is it your name they find?

Start with the MOT. It shows whether Google and ChatGPT come back with you or with somebody else round here, and you can order it online without a call. If you’d rather talk to me first, book a call.
