Social Media Management in Wirksworth, Derbyshire

Wirksworth is full of makers and independents, and the best thing to post is the work itself. I’m in Belper, 6 miles away, so I come over once a quarter and film it where it’s made, and that’s what goes out on your pages.

Is there someone local who can manage social media for an independent business in Wirksworth?

Yes, North Bear Media, run by Norton Hunt in Belper, around 6 miles away. He films a Wirksworth maker or independent shop on site each quarter, so its pages show the real work rather than stock images. It’s part of Found & Filmed at £995 a month, and the £295 Marketing MOT is the usual way to begin.

Wirksworth’s got a creative streak.

It’s a historic market town in the Derbyshire Dales, with a thriving creative community and more independent shops all the time.

In a town like that, people can tell when a business’s social media could be from anywhere. Makers and independents do best when the feed shows the work and the place as they really look, rough edges and all, and that’s what I film.

What you want is a proper local following: people in Wirksworth and round the Dales who recognise you and come through the door. I’ll build it.

I’m in Belper, 6 miles away. So I come to you and film it where it is, and you never have to send me pictures.

What it costs, and what you get each quarter.

Social media is part of Found & Filmed, which is £995 a month. It rolls on monthly, and either of us can stop it with 30 days’ notice.

Each quarter I come out for a filming day at your workshop or shop. What I film gets edited with captions on the videos, then posted gradually until the next one. Comments get replied to as well, which matters with makers, because people ask how things are made. You’ve got a business to run, so I handle all of it.

Alongside that I work on you being found on Google and in AI search, the nerdy name for whether ChatGPT suggests you when somebody asks where to buy something in Wirksworth. Your reviews feed into it too, and I’ll give you the best chance.

Your website’s hosted and looked after as part of it, with a report and a call each month. It costs less than a full-time hire, and I bring the kit. Anything else, a logo or some packaging design say, I price as a project first.

Client view

“Honest advice, amazing results and no unnecessary upselling.”

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 Wirksworth.

How much does social media management cost in Wirksworth?

It’s £995 a month for a Wirksworth business, as part of Found & Filmed, with a filming day at your place every quarter. It’s rolling monthly with 30 days’ notice either way. If you’d rather start smaller, the Marketing MOT is £295 and shows how your social compares with two other local businesses.

Which platforms do you manage?

Instagram and Facebook, which suit most makers and shops in Wirksworth, and LinkedIn if you sell to other businesses. I recommend the ones that fit where your customers are.

How many posts per week?

There’s no set number each week. It follows what we film each quarter, and it goes out steadily, not in bursts.

Do I need to provide content?

No. I film and photograph it at your place once a quarter. If you’ve got photos of your work already, I’ll use the good ones alongside.

Can we meet in person?

Yes. I’m in Belper, around 6 miles from Wirksworth, so I come to your shop or workshop, or we do a call.
