Working with businesses across the North East
I'm Sam - a freelance social media manager based between Newcastle and Gateshead. I work with women-led businesses across the North East who are overwhelmed, stretched thin, and ready to hand their social media over.
If you're looking for someone local who'll actually turn up, know your area, and understand the businesses you're competing with - that's what I do.

Who I work with locally
Most of my clients are small, women-led businesses. Independents. Service businesses. Makers, therapists, consultants, shop owners, and people running the kind of business where they are the brand.
The ones who know their social media matters, and know it's been sitting at the bottom of the list for three weeks.
Where I work
I'm based in Newcastle upon Tyne and cover Gateshead, North Tyneside, South Tyneside, and Northumberland. I see local clients in person where that helps - content days, photoshoots, planning sessions over coffee.
I also work remotely with businesses across the UK, so if you're not local, that's no barrier.
Local areas I cover: Newcastle upon Tyne · Gateshead · Jesmond · Ouseburn · Gosforth · Heaton · Byker · Wallsend · Whitley Bay · Tynemouth · North Shields · South Shields · Hexham · Durham · Sunderland
What I do
Three levels of support, from £100 a month up to complete done-for-you management:
Social Media Management
Content Creation - including Batch Mode content days
UGC - for brands
Common questions
Do you meet in person?
Yes - I'm local, so happy to meet face to face. Plenty of clients do everything over video call too, whatever suits.
Do you cover Gateshead as well as Newcastle?
Yes. I work across both, plus North Tyneside, South Tyneside and Northumberland.
Are you more expensive than a national agency?
No - considerably less. I'm one person, not a studio with overheads, and I price for small businesses rather than big ones.
