Have you come across the term "slow marketing" yet? đź‘€

It's the idea that marketing should focus less on constant output and more on consistent visibility over time.

Rather than asking, "How can we post more?" slow marketing asks, "What is actually worth showing up for, again and again?"

In practice, it usually means:

đź“Ś Choosing a few channels rather than trying to be everywhere
đź“Ś Creating content that stays relevant beyond this week
đź“Ś Building trust through consistency rather than constant promotion
đź“Ś Looking at long-term brand awareness, not just short-term engagement spikes

That's not to say fast marketing is wrong. There are times when speed matters. Launches, events and time-sensitive campaigns all benefit from it.

But for many service businesses, the biggest challenge isn't getting attention today. It's staying visible enough that people remember you six months from now.

I'm curious where people stand on this 🤔

Do you think businesses are too focused on short-term marketing wins, or is "slow marketing" just a new name for what good marketing has always been?

"We're posting on social media, but nobody says they found us through social media."

That's usually because marketing isn't one touchpoint. It's several.

Someone sees your content.
Then they meet you at an event.
A contact recommends you.
They visit your website.
Then they enquire.

When asked where they found you, they'll often credit the last interaction, not the five that came before it.

Marketing isn't always there to generate the enquiry.

Sometimes its job is to make sure you're remembered when the enquiry is ready to happen.

How much of your marketing are you measuring by the final touchpoint alone?

I turn work down more than people probably expect.

Not because I think I’m above certain projects or trying to be selective for the sake of it, but because over the years I’ve learnt that the wrong fit rarely works well for anyone involved.

Sometimes a business needs something different to what I offer. Sometimes expectations don’t line up. And sometimes I can just tell that I’m not going to be the right person to genuinely help them get where they want to go.

I’d much rather be honest about that upfront than take someone’s money and force a working relationship that doesn’t feel right.

It’s also why I ask a lot of questions at the beginning. Probably more than people expect from a social media manager.

I want to understand the business properly, how things operate behind the scenes, what the goals actually are, and whether social media is even the thing that needs fixing in the first place.

Because the best client relationships I’ve had have never felt transactional. They’ve worked because there’s trust, honesty and a shared understanding of what we’re actually trying to achieve.

And if that sounds like the kind of approach you’d want from someone handling your marketing, feel free to reach out.

Hiring someone to run your social media is a massive trust exercise.

You’re handing over your brand, your voice, your visibility and a decent chunk of budget, so I actually think more businesses should ask harder questions before they sign a contract.

Not in an intimidating way, but because the answers will usually tell you very quickly whether someone genuinely understands marketing… or whether they’re just going to post content and hope for the best.

Things like:
“How are you deciding what content we post?”
“What happens if something underperforms?”
“How are you measuring success?”
“What’s the strategy outside of posting?”
“How do you adapt content when platforms change?”

A lot of people can make a nice graphic now.

A lot fewer understand positioning, audience behaviour, content psychology and how social media actually fits into wider business goals.

And honestly, if you’ve got a question you think businesses should be asking their social media manager, add it below because I’d love to hear it.

You do not need a brand new idea every time you post.

I actually think one of the biggest mistakes businesses make with content is assuming that once a post has done well, it’s finished and time to move on to the next thing.

A post performs well, everyone’s excited about it for a few days, and then it disappears because the focus instantly shifts onto creating something new.

But good content rarely works just once.

The same topic can become a reel, a carousel, a talking video, a client story, a different opinion, or a completely new conversation depending on how you approach it.

Most people didn’t even see the original post anyway.

You’re probably not out of ideas, you’re just overlooking the content that already proved your audience cared about it.

Everyone loves the fun side of social media.

The trending audios, the cheeky reposts…the reels that feel super current and get people talking.

But something I don’t think enough businesses realise is that there are actually a lot of rules around this stuff, and most people only discover them once something goes wrong.

A video gets muted.
A post gets pulled.
A client’s content suddenly disappears.

There’s music licensing to think about, usage rights, consent, advertising regulations… and it’s why social media management is so much more than just “making posts look nice”.

A good social media manager should know this stuff inside out because part of the job is protecting your business while growing your visibility.

Honestly, ask yours about it sometime and see what they say.

Let me reintroduce myself.

I work with business owners who are brilliant at what they do...but whose marketing feels like a constant game of catch-up.

Posting in panic. No real strategy. Never feeling like it all joins up.

I help SMEs build a marketing presence that actually works (strategy, social, and the systems behind it ) so they can stop second-guessing and start showing up with intent.

Because your marketing should feel as good as your business does.

If that sounds like what you need, my link is in the bio.

"Our marketing is fine."

Three words I hear a lot.

Usually, right before a business owner tells me they're losing work to competitors with sharper content, burning their team's time on reels instead of revenue, and quietly wondering why nothing's growing.

Fine isn't a strategy.

Here's what we did when one client decided they were done with fine 👉

This is incredibly cliché to say… but this year really is flying by.

One minute it was January, now clients are revamping messaging, planning expos, preparing launches, building new brands and refining offers...and suddenly the weeks disappear.

That’s the reality of running a business.

Things get put in the diary.
Client work takes priority.
Problems creep up.
The to-do list grows.

And before you know it, you feel like you’ve completely disappeared publicly.

One thing I always recommend?

Have a bank of approved promotional posts ready to go.

Not every piece of content needs to be reactive or created in the moment. Sometimes the smartest thing you can do is prepare content in advance for the weeks where business inevitably gets busy.

Because consistency is much easier to maintain when you’ve already done the thinking.
