Social media management for Essex trades and construction companies.

Show the standard of your work, build local trust and give more homeowners and commercial clients a reason to request a quote.

Built for busy trade businesses

Your work may be excellent. An inactive page can still cost you the job.

You are on site, quoting and managing the team. Posting on Instagram is understandably near the bottom of the list. But when a homeowner receives three quotes, they often look each company up before deciding who feels safest to hire.

If your last post is six months old, your best projects are buried in your camera roll or your strongest reviews only sit on a trade directory, the business can look quieter and less established than it really is. We turn the proof you already have into a professional, active presence.

01

Before-and-after project posts

We turn completed kitchens, extensions, driveways, roofs, gardens and installations into clear proof of workmanship.

02

Transformation reels

Where you supply suitable footage, we plan short progress and transformation content that makes the result easy to understand.

03

Customer reviews put to work

Strong feedback becomes visible social proof instead of sitting unseen on Google, Checkatrade or in a message thread.

04

Useful trade advice

We turn the questions you answer every week into straightforward posts that demonstrate expertise and remove buyer uncertainty.

05

Local service and project coverage

Content clearly shows the work you want, the areas you cover and how a potential customer can request a quote.

06

Facebook and Instagram scheduling

We prepare and schedule three approved posts each week, with content suitable for sharing into relevant local groups where their rules allow.

Straight answers

Questions trade owners usually ask.

How much does social media management cost for a trade business?

FirstMark Monthly is £250 per month on a one-month rolling agreement. It includes 12 professionally designed posts and captions, scheduling across Facebook and Instagram, one monthly approval and a plain-English report.

How do you get photos and videos from our job sites?

You send recent job photos, customer reviews and business updates once each month through one organised process. We turn the strongest material into the full content plan, so you are not stopping work every week to feed us content.

Will social media actually help us win more work?

No responsible agency can promise a fixed number of leads. We improve the evidence customers see when they compare local firms: recent work, reviews, expertise, locations covered and a clear route to request a quote.

Do we need to post or write captions ourselves?

No. You provide the raw photos, reviews and updates once a month. We plan, write, design and schedule the approved posts for you.
