Tweed Coast social media

Social Media Management Tweed Coast

On the Tweed, your followers are also following Gold Coast brands with bigger budgets and full-time content teams. Tweed Heads, Kingscliff and Cudgen businesses don’t need to outspend them, but they do need a feed that looks just as polished and posts just as reliably.

Our team of five is about an hour south in Ballina, and most of our Tweed clients work with us by phone, email and video. For Busy at Work on the Gold Coast we photographed apprentices across many workplaces to build a large image library for their marketing.

01.

Holding Your Own Against the Coast

A local business with real photos and a consistent voice can stand out next to big-city brands. We create content that shows what’s different about you, so followers on both sides of the border have a reason to choose the Tweed option.

02.

Ads Targeted by Area

Paid social lets you choose exactly who sees a post. We develop and manage campaigns across the major platforms, so you can aim at Kingscliff locals, southern Gold Coast suburbs or holiday makers, without paying to reach people who will never visit.

03.

A Library of Images

For Busy at Work we photographed apprentices in a range of workplaces and delivered a large number of images. A bank of photos like that means you’re never stuck for something to post.

04.

Instagram First, Facebook Too

Instagram is where most businesses build an engaged following, and our packages cross-post to Facebook as standard. Facebook’s unpaid reach is limited, so for some audiences we’ll recommend putting a little budget behind key posts.

05.

Content From Real Creatives

Our photographers, designers and illustrators make the posts, so graphics, photos and captions all belong to the same brand. That consistency is what makes a smaller business look established and trustworthy online.

06.

Pricing

Social media management for Tweed Coast businesses starts from $650 a month + GST. Paid campaigns are planned around your budget, and content shoots start from $495 for a 2-hour shoot + GST.

Social media ads on a small budget

A small ad budget can teach you a lot, as long as you ask it a small question. Pick one objective, one audience and one offer, then give it long enough that the results mean something.

Instagram for local businesses: a weekly plan you can stick to

Three posts, a handful of stories and a reel every week or two. What each one is for, when to do it, and how to fit it into about two hours a week.

Tweed Coast social media questions

What does social media management cost on the Tweed Coast?

Management starts from $650 a month + GST. For that you get a team of photographers, designers and illustrators rather than one person trying to do everything. We price on platforms, posting rhythm and how much new photography each month needs, and agree the scope with you before anything starts.

How can a Kingscliff business compete with Gold Coast brands on Instagram?

Not by outspending them, but by being specific. Real photos of your place, your team and your regulars, posted consistently, give followers a reason to choose the local option. Big-city feeds often look generic, and a feed that genuinely feels like the Tweed stands out next to them.

We need a lot of images. Can you build us a library?

Yes. For Busy at Work on the Gold Coast we photographed apprentices across a range of workplaces and delivered a large number of images for their corporate library. A bank of photos like that means you’re never stuck for something to post. Shoots start from $495 for a 2-hour shoot + GST.

Can you look after our website as well?

Yes. We’ve built or refreshed websites for Tweed Coast businesses including ACR Mowers, Ultimate Building & Pest and Wellness Wayfinder. Pairing social with a site we know well means every post links to pages that are clear and easy to act on, and every site includes SEO foundations plus Google Analytics setup.

Do customers find us on social or on Google?

Both, at different moments. People discover you while scrolling, then check Google Maps, reviews and your website before they call. On the Tweed, where you’re often competing with southern Gold Coast suburbs in search, a well-kept Google Business Profile matters a lot. Local SEO setup starts from $450 + GST.

Do you need to visit us?

Only for shoots. Planning and approvals run by email and video call, and we drive up from Ballina, about an hour, when there’s content to capture. Most Tweed clients find working remotely easier than finding time for meetings.

Should we be on Facebook and Instagram, or just one?

Most Tweed businesses suit both: Instagram for growing a following, Facebook for locals and community groups. Our packages cross-post from Instagram to Facebook as standard, so one set of content covers both. If your customers are clearly on one platform, we’ll tell you and put the effort there.
