Social Media Strategy

SEO and Social Media are now intrinsically linked, playing a huge part in the way modern business works. If you want to achieve long-lasting success, you simply can't do one without the other.

A good social media strategy will make your SEO rankings future-proof, while sealing your position as the ultimate community destination for your industry.

We have created a transparent and proven Community Engagement Strategy that incorporates Social Media into a digital marketing mix. Whether you're in Leeds, London, Liverpool or Lerwick, you can become the foremost expert in your field in the eyes of consumers and peers with the deployment of this tactic.

If you become one of our Social Media clients, we look at your business and the users - the community - who interact with you, effectively and efficiently determining the resources your audience needs. We then implement these to position you as the leaders in your chosen industry.

On top of this, we use a variety of buzz monitoring tools to find the most relevant communities to your business and provide you with platforms and strategies in which to communicate with them.

We will build this strategy around your goals and objectives and go through the following steps with you:

  1. Hold a two-hour in-house workshop between our SEO and social media specialists, who are based in Leeds, with key members of your team to fully understand the goals, objectives and industry that will be addressed.
  2. Investigate your target audiences, communities and resources.
  3. Define where these audiences live, what resources they need and who the major influencers currently are.
  4. Produce an engagement strategy which will include:
    • Your audience and influencer Universe Resources and tools this audience require
    • What channels we will attract the audience through (Pull Methodologies)
    • How we can influence existing conversations (Social Engagement)
    • How we can disseminate your resources to these communities (Push Methodologies)

We will then present this strategy back to the business in an interactive session. The cost of this initial process is £2,500 and will drive out a 12 month strategy.
