Why choose us to get your social media going in Hampshire?

We’re not a faceless agency.

We’re a team rooted in Hampshire, working side-by-side with local businesses to deliver results that matter.

As an offshoot of The Local Marketing Company Ltd, we created The Local Social Media Agency to focus solely on social media - because we know how much it matters. We’ve worked with businesses across Andover, Romsey, Winchester, Southampton, Basingstoke, and throughout Hampshire, helping them increase their visibility, strengthen customer relationships, and grow online communities.

Here’s our Director:

He’ll be your first point of contact throughout your process with us, and be there to do your content shooting for you!

What makes us different?

  • We’re local. We understand Hampshire businesses and the audiences you want to reach. Based in our offices in Andover, we know and love the local area. No fancy London office - but right here in northern Hampshire.

  • We’re affordable. No inflated London prices, just straightforward, transparent packages. So transparent, and so straightforward, that they are on our website. Looking for a little more, or a little less than what our packages can offer, then just get in touch. The packages do not bind us, and we are far happier to work with you to create a package that not only keeps the bank account happy, but you and your business happy too.

  • We’re creative. From TikTok trends to professional LinkedIn strategies, we adapt content to fit your audience. But also - we come to you, shoot the content, take the photos, getting the perfect angles, the perfect content, so that you are not faffing about worrying what to send us for your social media posts.

  • We’re proven. With years of marketing expertise behind us, we know what works. And what really works? Being human, being social. People forget that the crucial word in “social media” is social - being social, connecting with your customers, and not forcing your products or services down their throats. Natural marketing that resonates with your customers and clients - that’s the stuff that works.

Our set up

Anyone can pick up a phone and film a quick video - and yes, iPhones can do the trick most of the time. But if you want to stand out, it takes more than a smartphone.

We’ve invested in professional equipment and creative software that gives your content the polished feel your competitors can’t match.

Sony A7 III & Sony FX30 - two of the best cameras in the industry, perfect for cinematic video, crisp photography, and versatile social content.

Rode Wireless Microphones - delivering crystal-clear sound that makes your content look and feel professional.

Lighting & Tripods - ensuring your brand is always shown in the best light (literally).

Adobe Creative Suite - Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere Pro, After Effects… industry-standard tools that allow us to design, edit, and polish content at the highest level.

Canva (when used right!) - we know, Canva gets a mixed reputation. But in the hands of a skilled designer, it’s a powerful tool to create quick-turnaround branded graphics that look sleek, consistent, and professional.
