Social Media Marketing That Sounds Like You
Your customers are on Facebook and Instagram every day. The trouble is finding time to post when you're busy running your business. I'm Rick Schettino, your friendly neighborhood marketing guy, and I handle social media for local businesses from right here in Bradenton. Professional posts that sound like you, set up, scheduled and handled.
Posts That Look Professional and Sound Like You
Social media works best when it feels like the real you, not a stock-photo robot. I take the time to learn how you talk to customers, then write and design posts in that same voice. Your feed ends up looking like the same business people see on the street, on the truck and on the screen.
Set Up, Scheduled and Handled
Most business owners don't need another app to learn. They need the posting to just happen. I take care of:
- Profile setup and cleanup: complete, consistent profiles with the right hours, links, photos and contact info
- Content planning: a simple monthly plan built around your seasons, specials and events
- Writing and design: captions and graphics that match your brand
- Scheduling: steady, regular posts, so your page never goes quiet for months
- Keeping an eye on things: I'll flag comments and messages that need your personal attention
Big-Agency Experience, Local Attention
I've spent more than 30 years in design, copywriting and marketing, including over a decade as an Art Director at high-end agencies. That means you get thumb-stopping graphics and words that actually say something, from one person who knows your business. No account reps, no handoffs, no wondering who's posting for you.
Social Media That Supports the Rest of Your Marketing
Social posts shouldn't live on an island. I make sure your social media points people to your website, your Google Business Profile and your phone number, and that it matches your logo, signs and print pieces. When everything looks and sounds the same, people remember you.
For Businesses Across the Greater Bradenton Area
I handle social media for restaurants, contractors, salons, shops, landscapers, real estate pros and other local businesses in Bradenton, Palmetto, Lakewood Ranch, Anna Maria Island, Sarasota and St. Petersburg. If your customers are local, your posts should feel local too.
Social Media Marketing FAQ
Which social media platforms should my business be on?
Usually fewer than you think. For most local businesses, doing one or two platforms well beats doing five badly. I'll look at where your customers actually spend time and recommend what makes sense.
Do I have to come up with the ideas and photos?
No. I'll plan the content and handle the writing and design. Your own photos of your work, your team and your place are always welcome, because real local photos tend to connect best, but you don't have to do the heavy lifting.
Will I get to approve posts before they go live?
Yes, if you'd like. Some clients want to see everything first, and some prefer I just handle it. We'll set it up whichever way you're comfortable with.
How much does social media management cost?
It depends on how many platforms and how often you want to post. You'll get a straight price up front, with no surprises and no long-term contracts.
