Social Media Strategy & Management for Food, Drink and Wellness Brands

You’re wondering if social media actually works.

You’ve considered doing it with AI. Hiring an intern. Taking a course and doing it yourself. Bringing someone in-house for control. You’re worried it’s too complicated. You think you need someone on site every week taking photos. You can’t justify paying someone for “just posting”. You’re sceptical because reach is low anyway.

So you keep posting inconsistently. Or you don’t post at all.

What I know after nearly a decade working with food, drink, and wellness brands in Ireland and internationally? Social media works. But not the way most people think it does. The real deal isn’t posting more, having the cheapest option, or doing it yourself. It’s having a strategy: knowing what to post and why, who you are talking to, and how it positions your brand. That’s what I do, and that’s what makes the difference.

This could be your page with a strategy:

When you work with me, you get one person who knows your brand properly, not someone who picks up your brief, delivers a content calendar, and moves on to the next account. I deliberately keep my roster small, so every client gets the level of attention that actually makes a difference.

Nearly a decade working exclusively with food, drink, and wellness brands means I’ve seen the same pattern countless times: incredible products and services that don’t look as incredible online. Not because you’re doing it wrong, you’re just doing it without direction. Once strategy clicks, everything shifts: you stop guessing what to post, your brand stops blending in, people stop scrolling past. And that’s the real transformation you should want for your business.

I’m not an agency because I don’t want to be one. I want to do the work well β€” and this is how that happens.

Pick your portion

Flexible social media retainer packages for food, drink, and wellness brands. This is your menu: you can pick a ready-made package or request a fully custom blend.

These packages cover social media strategy and management β€” not photography, video shoots, or in-person content creation (those can be added separately). This means they are best suited for brands with an existing content library or willing to create content based on my direction.

Packages are based on Instagram as the primary platform. Facebook, LinkedIn, and TikTok can be added. Community engagement can be added to the smaller packages, too. Get in touch to discuss.

Add more flavour

These can be added to any package:

  • Photography
  • Short-form video creation
  • Video editing
  • Custom recipe development
  • In-person or studio content sessions
  • Community engagement (if not already included)
  • Digital content repurposing
  • Strategic consultations

What working together looks like:

Every collaboration starts with the right questions. You fill out a detailed onboarding form, we get on a call, and I build a strategy around your brand specifically β€” not a framework adapted to fit, something made for you. From there, the work runs on a clear monthly rhythm: planning, creating, publishing, reviewing, adjusting.

You’ll always know what’s happening and what’s coming next. And because I keep my roster small, you’re not waiting days for a reply or wondering if your account has been remembered that week.

Most of my clients stay for years. Not because they’re locked into a contract, but because when the working relationship is right, and the results are there, there’s no reason to start over with someone else.

That’s what I’m building with every new client from day one.
