Social media marketer. Tiny social media following.

But CoffeyClub | Social Media Marketing is new. My experience isnโ€™t.

Am I an influencer? No. Do I think I am? Also no. Iโ€™m building this account from the ground up โ€” publicly, organically and with all the experiments, carousels, questionable Reels and algorithm-induced breakdowns that come with it.

Meanwhile, the real portfolio? Growing. The businesses I work with and the results we create.

So yes, the follower count is small.

And why put myself through it?

โ€œI LOVE THIS GAME!โ€ โค๏ธ

Donโ€™t let managing your socials become the third wheel in your relationship. ๐Ÿ‘€๐Ÿ›ž๐Ÿ“ฑ

Date night? Better post that Reel.
Sunday afternoon? Need to schedule Mondayโ€™s LinkedIn post.
On holiday? Hang on, engagementโ€™s looking a bit lowโ€ฆ

Managing your own social media sounds easy enoughโ€ฆ until you realise it never really switches off.

Content ideas. Filming. Editing. Captions. Scheduling. Community management. Analytics. Strategy. And the occasional existential crisis when the post you spent two hours creating gets 7 likes. ๐Ÿซ 

ORโ€ฆ you could just outsource it.

โ˜•๏ธ You run your business.
โ˜•๏ธ Enjoy your evenings.
โ˜•๏ธ Go to the wedding.
โ˜•๏ธ Have another drink.

Weโ€™ll worry about the socials.

CoffeyClub | Social Media Marketing gives small and medium businesses the time to manage what matters most โ€” with social media strategy, content and ongoing management taken off your plate.

One last โ€˜5 in 5โ€™ before it becomes 5 in 6โ€ฆ

Although, given that every edition has contained six points, apparently nobody should be trusting me with the maths.

Welcome to 5 in 5: The Holiday Edition. โœˆ๏ธ

One of the things I worried about when starting CoffeyClub | Social Media Marketing was whether adding a social media marketing business alongside a full-time career would mean sacrificing more of the thing I was trying to create:

Time.

Five months in, Iโ€™m learning that it doesnโ€™t have toโ€ฆ

Freelancing has given me freedom. Not the Instagram version where you open a laptop next to a swimming pool and pretend youโ€™re running an empire for 14 minutesโ€ฆ (maybe a little bit) ๐Ÿค

Actual flexibility.

I can manage my workload. Plan ahead. Look after my clients. And, provided thereโ€™s Wi-Fi or enough signal to hotspot, work from pretty much anywhere when I need to.

But Iโ€™ve also learnt that sometimes the laptop should stay closed. The phone should remain off [at least silent].

Go on holiday. Spend time with family. Eat too many olives. Drink the cocktail. Take the photos because you want the memories โ€” not because you need B-roll.

And yes, Iโ€™ll probably turn some of it into content afterwards. I am right nowโ€ฆ ๐Ÿ˜‚ Thereโ€™s a healthy balance to be found.

Because ultimately, CoffeyClub has always been about โ€˜giving people time to manage what matters most.โ€™

Itโ€™s probably worth remembering that applies to me too. And for me, what matters most will always start with family. โค๏ธ

Five months down. Three editions down.

Next stop: 5 in 6.

โ€ฆunless I finally accept that this series is actually called 6 in 6. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

These are the results from my personal LinkedIn account over the last 365 days โ€” and they demonstrate something I bang on about A LOT at CoffeyClub | Social Media Marketing.

More views/reach isnโ€™t always the answer.
Better content is.

No overnight virality. No algorithm โ€œhackโ€ (though, I try my best). No jumping on every trend because somebody on TikTok told us toโ€ฆ

Just learning what makes an audience stop, care and engage โ€” and doing more of it.

Thatโ€™s the kind of social media marketing growth weโ€™re interested in building for small businesses.

So, here we are. 5 in 5: Part Two.

And I think this batch sums up the reality of building something alongside a full-time career pretty wellโ€ฆ ๐Ÿ‘€๐Ÿ‘€๐Ÿ‘€

I canโ€™t be everywhere, doing everything, at platinum standard โ€” nor should I be. My clients come first.

Iโ€™ve learnt just how much the smallest bit of support can mean to a small business.

Iโ€™ve learnt that people connect with *people* far more than logos and polished assets.

Iโ€™ve questioned myself more than once.

Iโ€™ve also had ideas for social posts while walking the dogs, at the gym, doing chores and, yes, sitting on the loo.

But perhaps most importantlyโ€ฆ

Iโ€™ve learnt that being your own boss is fun as F**K! ๐Ÿ˜‚

Making the rules. Trying things. Getting some of them wrong. Seeing others actually work. Meeting brilliant people. Helping businesses grow.

And occasionally stopping long enough to appreciate that this little thing didnโ€™t exist until I decided to create it.

Still learning. Still building. Still enjoying the ride.

5 months down. Plenty more lessons to come.

And apparently 6 pointsโ€ฆ because I canโ€™t follow my own brief. โ˜•๏ธ๐Ÿ˜‚ (rule breaker is a trend, right?)

CoffeyClub | Social Media Marketing has officially been doing its thing for five months โ€” and while I spend plenty of time helping other businesses navigate social media, Iโ€™m learning a fair bit myself along the wayโ€ฆ

Some about marketing. More about running a business. Most importantly, knowing when to switch off.

And, unfortunately, one about accepting that my wife might be better at social media than me.*

The takeaways so far?

โ˜•๏ธ Scroll for inspiration, not comparison.
โ˜•๏ธ Donโ€™t let the numbers define you.
โ˜•๏ธ Stop chasing perfect.
โ˜•๏ธ Be unapologetically yourself.
โ˜•๏ธ Know when to say no.

For me, CoffeyClub was created to **give businesses time to manage what matters most** โ€” and five months in, Iโ€™m realising I need to follow that advice too.

Hereโ€™s to the next five months of learning, refining, and helping brilliant businesses! ๐Ÿ™Œ

P.S. Follow along for the next โ€˜5 in 5โ€™ later this monthโ€ฆ

Not a bad weekend at CoffeyClub | Social Media Marketing ๐Ÿ“ˆ

Itโ€™s 2026. AI is everywhere. Algorithms are โ€˜decidingโ€™ what we see. Brands are building communities online.

And somewhere, a business owner is STILL asking:

โ€œCan we add a few more hashtags so people can find us?โ€

** **

๐Ÿซ ๐Ÿซ ๐Ÿซ 

Hashtags *can* still have their place โ€” but if theyโ€™re the backbone of your social media strategy, we might need to have a chat.

Todayโ€™s social landscape is about so much more: creating content people actually want to watch, understanding your audience, building a recognisable personality, encouraging genuine engagement and, most importantly, having an actual strategy behind what you post.

So, if your business could do with a โ€˜modern-day education on the social media landscapeโ€™ โ€” or youโ€™d simply rather hand the whole thing over to someone who spends far too much time thinking about algorithmsโ€ฆ
