social media audits for small businesses in Cornwall
A proper look at your Instagram, Facebook or Tiktok. What's working, what's broken, and exactly what to change in the next 90 days. delivered within 10 working days. One flat price and no upsell.
what's actually wrong with your social media (and how you'd know)
A lot of small business owners I speak to say the same thing: "I think our socials are underperforming, but I don't know what to fix first," that’s where an audit comes in.
A social media audit is the outside look that catches the stuff you've stopped noticing. The bio that's still describing the business you were three years ago. The reels that get double the reach of your photos, that you're only posting once a month. The competitor in the next town who's quietly hoovering up local search traffic because their captions actually mention where they are.
A proper audit answers three questions: what do you have, what's broken, and what should you do about it in the next 90 days.
what you get in your social media audit
A written audit report delivered as a shareable pdf, covering:
1. Full profile breakdown
Handle, name, bio, link-in-bio, highlights, pinned content, grid consistency, brand voice, alt text, hashtag strategy. Reviewed against what actually works on the platform in 2026, not 2019.
2. What needs to be updated (with exact wording)
I don't just tell you your bio is weak, I rewrite it. Same for your highlights, your pinned posts, your link-in-bio structure and any other quick-fix copy. You can paste the changes straight in.
3. Quick wins for the next 30 days
5 to 7 changes you can make this month that don't cost anything and will have you seeing more reach, saves and profile visits.
4. Basic competitor analysis
A snapshot of 2-3 competitors (either ones you name, or ones I find in your niche and location). What they're doing better, what they’re not doing, and where the gap is.
5. A 90-day action plan
A proper roadmap of content themes, posting frequency, format mix (reels vs stills vs stories vs carousels) and priorities. Clear enough that you (or whoever handles your socials) can just follow it.
6. One platform per audit, or bundle for a discount
One platform is £100. Two is £180. All three (Instagram, Facebook, Tiktok) is £250.

who a social media audit is for
perfect for you if:
you're a cornwall small business owner running your own socials and it's not landing the way it used to
you've just handed the socials to someone new (a hire, a team member, a freelancer) and want an outside baseline before they start
you're about to invest in content creation or a monthly retainer and want to know exactly what to prioritise
you've been posting for 12+ months and can't tell if it's working
your competitors are outperforming you and you want to know exactly what they're doing differently
not the right fit if:
you have no social profiles yet, or are just starting out (take a look at social media training instead)
you're a big brand with 100k+ followers and multiple content producers (you need something more comprehensive than £100 buys)
you want someone to do the work for you, not just tell you what to do (that's a monthly retainer, not an audit)
how much does a social media audit cost?
£250
for three platforms
£100
for one platform
£180
for two platforms
My prices aren’t a loss leader or a launch offer. It's what I've priced this at because I want it to be accessible for small Cornwall businesses who wouldn't normally justify a £500 audit spend. Every recommendation is written by me. No AI reports, no templates.
I work with a small handful of Cornwall clients on the full-service monthly retainer and content days. The audit exists as a low-commitment way to work with me first, prove the recommendations actually get things going, and give you the option to work together properly afterwards if you want to. No pressure and no upsell built into the audit itself.
