Freelance Social Media & Marketing · Manchester

All of the agency know‑how. None of the layers.

Agency-quality marketing for small businesses and founders, without the agency fees or the account managers.

About me

Hi, I’m Isi…

I spent five years in marketing, both in-house and agency-side, before going freelance. I saw first-hand how much gets lost when your brand is passed between account managers and juniors, so now I work differently.

When you work with me, you work with me.

I plan it, create it, run it and report on it, whether that’s growing a personal brand from scratch or getting a business seen by the right people.

From organic social and paid ads to newsletters, blogs and podcast promotion, I cover everything you need to build a brand people actually remember.

Built around you, not a package

Every founder and business is different, so I don’t do one-size-fits-all. We start with a chat about where you are and where you want to be, and I shape everything around that, whether it’s an ongoing monthly retainer, a one-off project or a bit of both.

  • Just me

    The person you speak to is the person doing the work, from strategy to posting.

  • Bespoke

    No set packages, just what you actually need.

  • Flexible

    Monthly support, one-off projects, or something in between.

To give you a rough idea, here’s where things usually start. Every quote is tailored to you, so yours could be different.

Social media management

from £500/month

Ongoing strategy, content, community and reporting.

One-off projects

from £350

Need something smaller, like a monthly newsletter? Single-service retainers start lower, just ask.
