Social media services tailored to London businesses

Alex Costin’s social media management covers strategy, content, community, and paid social, all aligned to your KPIs. Whether you’re a startup, SME, or established brand, the approach is practical, transparent, and ROI-focused.

Strategy and planning

Every campaign starts with research. Alex analyses your market, customers, and competitors to identify opportunities others miss. He then translates this into a clear social roadmap: which platforms to prioritise, what content to produce, and how to measure success.

For London businesses, this means understanding local search behaviour, seasonal trends, and competitor activity across channels like Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, Facebook, and X (Twitter).

Content creation and storytelling

Content is the engine of social growth. As an experienced content strategist and creative designer, Alex crafts posts, carousels, short-form videos, and visuals that fit your brand and resonate with your audience.

He combines copywriting, graphic design, and video editing skills to produce assets that perform well organically and as ads. This includes platform-native formats such as Reels, Stories, and TikTok-style clips, plus static and motion graphics tailored for each channel.

Community management and engagement

Social media is a two-way conversation. Alex sets up processes to respond to comments, messages, and mentions promptly, turning interactions into relationships and relationships into customers.

He also identifies and engages with relevant influencers and partners, expanding your reach beyond your existing followers. This is especially valuable in London’s competitive sectors such as hospitality, property, professional services, and tech.

Paid social and performance campaigns

Organic reach is important, but paid social accelerates results. As a certified Google and Microsoft Ads specialist with extensive Meta experience, Alex builds and optimises paid campaigns across Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, and X.

His approach focuses on:

• Clear objectives (leads, sales, bookings, sign-ups)
• Precise audience targeting using first-party data and lookalikes
• Continuous A/B testing of creative, copy, and landing pages
• Reducing cost per result while scaling volume

His track record includes cutting PPC costs by up to 90% versus competitors’ averages by improving ad quality and landing page experience, a discipline that directly benefits paid social campaigns too.

Analytics, reporting, and optimisation

What gets measured gets improved. Alex provides clear, jargon-free reports that show what’s working, what isn’t, and what to do next. He tracks metrics that matter: reach, engagement rate, click-through rate, conversion rate, cost per lead, and revenue attributed to social.

Using tools like Google Analytics, Meta Business Suite, and native platform insights, he identifies patterns, tests hypotheses, and iterates quickly. This continuous optimisation ensures your social spend delivers compounding returns over time.

How Alex Costin works with London clients

Engagements are flexible and tailored. Whether you need a one-off audit, a monthly retainer, or project-based support for a product launch or event, Alex adapts to your needs and budget.

Typical steps include:

1. Discovery: Understanding your business, goals, current social performance, and constraints.
2. Audit: Reviewing existing profiles, content, ads, and analytics to find quick wins and longer-term opportunities.

4. Execution: Creating and scheduling content, managing communities, running ads, and engaging with your audience.
5. Reporting: Sharing regular updates, insights, and recommendations to keep improving results.

For London-based teams, Alex can work remotely or on-site as needed, and can also train in-house staff to become more self-sufficient in social media best practices.

Results you can expect

Alex’s work has helped brands increase leads from around 20 per week to roughly 600 per week through integrated marketing, grow e-commerce sales by 500% at Oxfam, and achieve first-page rankings that outperform major competitors.
