Social Media That Actually Moves the Needle
I'll be straight with you about social media management services.
Most agencies talk a big game about "brand awareness" and "engagement metrics" but can't show you how that translates to actual money in your bank account.
I'm Sam from Vertebrae Social. Before I started helping founders build their brands online, I trained as an art historian and curator, writing copy for best-selling travel guides. My entire career has been about combining the right words and pictures to make people pay attention.
That’s why it’s so frustrating to see so many businesses throw thousands at social media with nothing to show for it.
Here's What's Really Happening With Your Social Media Right Now
You're posting content that gets a few likes from your mum and maybe that one loyal customer.
Your competitors are somehow getting more followers, more engagement and more importantly, more sales.
You know social media should be working for your business, but every post feels like shouting into the void.
The worst part? You're spending hours creating content that goes nowhere.
Why Most Social Media Management Falls Flat
Generic Content That Blends Into the Background: Most agencies pump out the same boring stock photos and motivational quotes everyone else uses.
No Strategy Behind the Pretty Pictures: They'll give you a content calendar that looks professional but has zero connection to your business goals.
Vanity Metrics That Don't Pay the Bills: They celebrate 100 new followers whilst your revenue stays exactly the same.
One-Size-Fits-All Approach: They use the same strategy for a plumber that they use for a boutique clothing brand.
How We Actually Deliver Social Media Management Services That Work
We don't start with content creation.
We start by understanding exactly who's buying from you and where they hang out online.
Then we reverse-engineer content that speaks directly to those people's problems and desires.
Every single post has a purpose - whether that's driving traffic, generating leads or nurturing existing customers.
Platform-Specific Content That Actually Performs
Instagram Management: We create scroll-stopping visuals that make people want to learn more about what you do. Stories that build genuine connections with your audience. Reels that actually get seen (because I understand the algorithm).
Personal Brand Development: Your personal brand is so much more than the occasional post on LinkedIn - it's how you look, sound, and what you stand for in every interaction.
Everyone already has a personal brand whether they like it or not.
The question is: are you going to control the narrative or let others decide who you are?
Our full-service personal branding package positions you as an influential thought leader in your industry, building your reputation and opening doors to unlimited opportunities.
LinkedIn Strategy (for B2B clients): Thought leadership content that attracts high-value prospects. Professional networking that opens doors to new opportunities. Industry insights that establish your credibility.
TikTok Content (when it makes sense for your business): Authentic, behind-the-scenes content that humanises your brand. Trend-aware posts that tap into viral moments. Educational content that solves real problems.
Content Creation That Converts
We don't just create content - we create content systems.
Behind-the-Scenes Content: People buy from people, not faceless brands. We show the real humans behind your business.
Educational Posts: We position you as the go-to expert in your industry. Every post teaches something valuable your audience actually wants to know.
Social Proof Content: Customer testimonials, case studies and success stories that do the selling for you.
Call-to-Action Posts: Clear, compelling reasons for people to take the next step with your business.
