📣 Back to basics, starting Monday 3rd August.

Let's be honest: a lot of us are busy doing social media without ever checking whether the foundations are actually in place. And when the basics are off, everything you post has to work twice as hard.

So from Monday 3rd August, I'm running a daily series taking you right back to the fundamental, one simple, practical thing each day to make sure your business social media basics are solid.

No fluff. No jargon. Just the stuff that quietly makes the difference between a page that gets ignored and one that gets found. ✅

Whether you're just starting out or you've been at this for years and never had time to check under the bonnet, this is for you.

📩 Got something specific you're stuck on? DM me anything you want answering and I'll cover it in the series.

A school. Facebook. 289,000% more reach.

That’s what happened when we stopped posting like a noticeboard and started posting for people.

Before: almost no engagement, posts barely seen.
After: content parents actually interacted with, shared, and talked about.

Same platform. Completely different results.

Most schools and businesses don’t have a reach problem.
They have a content strategy problem.

Message me and let's have a chat.

Posting more isn't the answer. 📉

If your page feels like a ghost town, the problem usually isn't how often you post, it's that you're only relying on your page to do the work.

The businesses getting seen are showing up where their customers already are: in groups, in comments, in other people's audiences.

Here are 5 ways to get your page in front of the right people, without adding another post to the pile.

Which one are you going to try first?

The honest version of running a digital marketing business in 2026:

– Half the day creating content for clients, the other half wondering when I'll create some for myself.
– A notes app full of post ideas I've definitely had at 11pm.
– Genuine excitement when a client's reel takes off, and genuine relief when a tricky tech problem is overcome.
– Caffeine. Always caffeine.

Nine years in and the work still feels like proper work, not a "personal brand," not a content factory. Just me, looking after a handful of small businesses I really care about.

If that sounds like the kind of marketing support you've been after, you know where I am.

Nine years of Babbl this year, and honestly, the question I still get asked is: "Am I actually going to deal with you, or someone on your team?"

Always me. That's the whole point.

When you work with me at Babbl, you're not handed off to an account manager you've never met. You're not in a queue behind a hundred other clients. You get me, replying to your messages, writing your posts, sending you emails, picking up the phone when something needs sorting.

It wasn't always the plan, but now it's a deliberate choice. I want to keep it personal because that's what my clients want too. And after nine years, I'm more convinced than ever that it's the right one for the businesses I work with.

Interesting one from LinkedIn this month: a new Meltwater report analysed 9.5 million AI citations and found LinkedIn is now the second most-cited source by AI chatbots, behind only YouTube. The bigger surprise? Around 75% of those citations came from personal profiles, not company pages.

What that means in plain English: when potential customers ask ChatGPT or Claude for recommendations or research in your industry, the AI is increasingly pulling from what real people are posting on LinkedIn. The findings are strongest in B2B, but the direction of travel is clear across the board.

So if you've been treating LinkedIn as the platform you "should" be on but never quite get round to, the cost of staying quiet just went up. Personal profile posts beat company page posts. Always have done, even more so now.

Less "post more," more "post the right things in the right places."

Quick one for any small business owners feeling the Instagram pressure right now 👇

The June 2026 update has shifted things again, Reels are now being ranked more heavily on watch time, saves and shares rather than likes.

Translation: the polished, "perfect" content is doing worse than the genuinely useful or genuinely human stuff.

What's actually working for the businesses I look after:
– Founder/owner on camera, talking like a normal person
– Carousels that teach something specific (not a vague "5 tips")
– Stories that feel like a real day, not a brochure

If your reach has dropped lately, it's probably not you. It's the algorithm rewarding different signals. Happy to chat through what that looks like for your business, drop me a message.

Bit of a confession: I've been quiet on here lately.

Not because Babbl has gone anywhere, quite the opposite. The first half of 2026 has been busy and I've been laying the foundations for my new consulting offer alongside Babbl.

The funny thing about being a one-woman business is that when you're heads-down delivering, you're not posting. And when you're posting, it often means you're not as busy as usual. Always a balance.

So this is me popping my head up to say: still here, still personally looking after every account, still answering my own emails. If you've been wondering whether to get in touch, please do. I'd love to hear what you're working on.
