We create content, manage community activity and run paid social on Meta, LinkedIn and TikTok for firms in South, West and North Yorkshire, from local trades to manufacturers and coastal hotels, measured on enquiries rather than likes. Social media marketing starts from £650 a month. Content, community management and paid social for businesses across South, West and North Yorkshire, built around local communities and measured on enquiries, bookings and hires. Social media marketing in Yorkshire works best when it feels local: real jobs, real staff and a place in the community groups people already use. ProntX is a London-based social media agency that plans content, manages community activity and runs paid social for Yorkshire businesses, measured on enquiries, bookings and hires, from £650 a month on a rolling contract. ### Why community comes first here Across Sheffield, Doncaster, Rotherham, Barnsley and the West Yorkshire towns, word of mouth still drives a lot of local business, and much of it now happens in neighbourhood Facebook groups. UK business forum threads show local service owners getting more work from those groups and leaflets than from paid adverts, especially with older customers. A strategy that ignores that is starting from the wrong place. ### What South Yorkshire agency searches show Search “social media marketing agency south yorkshire” and you find directory pages, a national agency quoting its own return-on-ad-spend figures, and a few Sheffield and Doncaster firms. What is missing is any discussion of how success is measured. Agency blogs themselves warn that impressions and likes feel good but rarely translate into revenue.

Those whose customers choose with their eyes, rely on trust, or need to see the people behind the business. The best platform and content style differ by sub-region and sector. South Yorkshire ### Manufacturing pride and recruitment South Yorkshire’s economy is led by advanced manufacturing, with aerospace, automotive, rail, nuclear and logistics among its strengths. Factory-floor video, apprentice stories and project milestones on LinkedIn help win business, and paid social is often the most effective way to reach skilled staff in Sheffield, Rotherham and Doncaster. West Yorkshire ### A creative priority place West Yorkshire is one of six national priority places for creative industries, with a plan to nearly double the sector to £4.1 billion by 2035, building on Bradford’s year as City of Culture. Studios, venues, makers and independent retailers there compete on visual content, so Instagram and TikTok carry more weight. North Yorkshire ### Places people want to visit The Dales, the North York Moors and coastal towns such as Whitby and Scarborough draw millions of visitors each year. Hotels, cafés, holiday lets and attractions can use short video of the place itself to reach people planning trips, then remarket to them as their dates get closer. Local services everywhere ### Proof for people who found you on Google For plumbers, builders, salons and clinics, social is where new customers check you are real: recent jobs, reviews and the team. Steady posting and quick replies matter more than viral reach. See our [small business social media](/social-media-marketing/small-business/) service. Paid or organic ## Should a Yorkshire business pay for Facebook and Instagram ads? Sometimes. Paid social works when the offer is clear, the audience is big enough and tracking is in place. Boosting posts with no objective is how most local businesses waste money. - Lead or conversion campaigns, not engagement boosts, when you want enquiries - Audiences sized so the platform can learn, not a single postcode - Landing pages and instant forms that ask for the minimum - Fast follow-up, because social leads go cold quickly - No packages sold on follower or like targets - No ads without tracking of the result you care about - No ad accounts held in the agency’s name - No twelve-month contracts Content days ## Where does the content come from? From your business, not a stock library. Yorkshire customers can spot generic content quickly, and real footage of your people and work is what earns trust. A content day on site can capture a month or two of material in one visit: the team at work, finished jobs, the kitchen during service, a machine running, a view from the holiday cottage. Small-business trainers in the county already run one-to-one content days for owners without the budget for full management, which shows how useful a single focused session can be. Between visits, we send your team a simple shot list each month and turn their phone clips into posts, Reels and ads. That keeps the feed current without anyone on your side having to learn editing software or write captions, and it means the content reflects what is really happening in the business that week. If you would rather keep posting yourself, we can also set up a content plan and templates, then manage only the paid campaigns and the [search](/seo/yorkshire/) side that turns attention into enquiries.

Directory listings show some South Yorkshire agencies starting social work from a few hundred pounds, while fully managed organic and paid programmes run to well over £1,000 a month. ProntX starts from £650 a month for content and community management, with paid social typically £900 to £1,800 a month plus ad spend paid directly to the platform. ### Do Facebook groups still work for local Yorkshire businesses? Often, yes. Business forum discussions show many local service firms win more work from community Facebook groups and word of mouth than from paid adverts, particularly with older customers. We help you take part in groups properly, following each group's rules, and use paid ads to reach people the groups miss. ### Is social media worth it for a trade or manufacturer? For trades, social works best as proof: finished jobs, reviews and the team, which reassure people who found you on Google. For manufacturers, LinkedIn supports sales conversations and is often the most effective way to recruit skilled staff. It is rarely the main source of new leads for either, and we will say so honestly. ### Which platforms should a Yorkshire business use? Facebook and Instagram suit trades, retail, hospitality and local services. LinkedIn suits B2B firms in Leeds, Sheffield and the manufacturing towns. TikTok can work for venues, food and younger audiences. We recommend two or three platforms you can do well, based on where your customers already spend time. ### Can you create content at our premises in Yorkshire? Yes. Planning, editing, posting and community management happen remotely, and we can arrange content days on site to capture a month or more of photos and short video in one visit. We can also coach your team to film quick clips on a phone, which keeps your feed authentic between visits. ### How do you measure social media results? We agree one main outcome before we start, such as enquiries, bookings, job applications or online sales, and track it with links, pixels and booking-system tags. Your monthly report leads with that number and the cost per result. Reach, engagement and follower growth are included but are not the measure of success. ### Can you run social ads for tourism businesses on the Yorkshire coast and in the Dales? Yes. Hotels, holiday lets and attractions can show ads to people in the cities their guests usually come from, timed to build ahead of school holidays and long weekends. Short video of the place itself, walks, views and food, tends to outperform polished brochure imagery. ### Will I be tied into a long contract? No. ProntX works on rolling monthly contracts with one month's notice, and your social and ad accounts stay in your name. If social is not producing results for your business after a fair test, we will tell you and suggest where the budget would work harder, such as SEO in Yorkshire. ## Price From £650 per month plus VAT.
