Meet Alex

You get someone who actually gets involved.

I'm Alex. I run Social AM from Oldham and work with businesses across Greater Manchester and, for bigger creative projects, well beyond it.

Social AM exists because of something I kept seeing: a good business paying a videographer, a social media freelancer, someone for ads and someone else for the website — with nobody joining it up. Four suppliers, four invoices, and no one thinking about the business as a whole.

I can think strategically, but I'm not a strategist who disappears once the deck is signed off. I'll come up with the campaign idea, write the concept, turn up and film it, take the photographs, edit it, run the advertising, manage the social media and work on the website.

That's the whole proposition. One person. Everything marketing. Actually involved.

It also means you don't have to manage me. If I spot something worth doing — a campaign, a piece of content, a fix on the website, a channel worth testing — I'll bring it to you rather than wait to be asked.

I'm not trying to build an agency. I'm trying to do good work for a manageable number of businesses who want someone properly on their side.

How I like to work

Understand the business first

Margins, capacity, what a customer is worth, what you actually want more of. Marketing decisions get much easier after that conversation.

Make things worth showing

Content is where most of the work is. Filming days, photography, short form edits — a proper library rather than one video a year.

Keep it honest

If something isn't working I'll say so. If a channel isn't right for you I'll tell you rather than sell it.

Fancy a straight conversation about your marketing?

No pitch deck, no discovery process. A call with Alex, an honest read on what would actually help, and a price.
