Social Media Advertising for Small and Medium Businesses in North Hampshire
What Is Social Media Advertising?
Social media advertising is paid promotion on platforms like Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and LinkedIn that puts your business in front of a specific, targeted audience - rather than relying on followers or algorithms alone.
I design and manage social media ad campaigns for local businesses across North Hampshire and beyond, turning social platforms into a measurable growth channel for your business.

Who Is Social Media Advertising For?
Got followers but no leads to show for it? Or starting from zero on Facebook, Instagram, or TikTok with no audience built yet?
Either way, this is where paid social earns its keep - turning attention into actual enquiries rather than just likes. I also work with businesses that are tired of guessing at content and want to start targeting the people most likely to buy.
Whether social is brand new to you or something you've dabbled in without a clear strategy, I build campaigns around where your business is today.
Results You Can Expect
Every business and industry is different, but the businesses I work with typically see stronger engagement and follower growth within the first few weeks of launch, an average return of roughly £5 for every £1 spent as targeting is refined, steady lead generation that doesn't rely on organic reach or algorithm luck, and retargeting data that keeps interested visitors coming back instead of disappearing after one visit.
My Approach to Social Media Advertising
1. Discovery & Audit
I review your current social presence, competitors, and goals to identify where paid social fits.
2. Strategy & Platform Selection
I choose the right platforms and audience targeting based on where your customers actually are.
3. Creative & Campaign Launch
I set up targeting, creative, and tracking so results are measurable from day one.
4. Ongoing Optimisation
I continuously test and adjust targeting, spend, and creative toward what's converting.
5. Reporting & Growth Planning
you receive clear, regular reporting and a roadmap for scaling what works.
There's no hand-off between strategy and execution here - I run every campaign myself, from the first audit through to the reporting you actually read.
