## What we make

Most businesses need a steady mix rather than one hero post. A typical month from dijitul marketing includes educational posts that answer the questions customers ask, proof posts such as reviews, before-and-after shots and finished jobs, behind-the-scenes posts that show the people, and offer posts that ask for the sale. Each is written for the platform it goes on: short and visual for Instagram, practical for Facebook, more considered for LinkedIn, and personal and fast for TikTok.

We write every caption, design graphics in your brand colours and fonts, build carousels, and edit short videos from footage you send. Every image gets alt text so people using screen readers know what it shows. If you want us to post and reply as well, that is social media management.

## Sizes and formats that fit each platform

Getting the shape right is the cheapest improvement most accounts can make.

- **Instagram feed:** Instagram changed the profile grid to 3:4 portrait tiles in January 2025, so we design feed images at 1080 x 1440 px or 4:5 and check the grid crop.
- **Reels, Stories and TikTok:** 9:16 vertical. Meta's Ads Guide recommends keeping the top 14%, bottom 35% and 6% on each side clear of text, because the interface covers them. We apply the same margins to organic video.
- **Facebook feed:** 4:5 portrait takes up more of the screen than landscape.
- **LinkedIn:** square or portrait images and document carousels (PDF) work well in the feed.

We export each piece in the shapes you need, rather than cropping one design to fit everything.

## Writing captions people read

A caption has one job in its first line: make someone stop. After that it should be useful, specific and in your voice. We write in plain British English, front-load the point, and finish with one clear action, such as book, call, visit or comment. Hashtags are used sparingly and chosen for relevance, not volume.

Before we write anything, we agree a short tone of voice guide with you: words you use and avoid, how formal to be, whether emojis suit your brand, and how you refer to customers. That keeps posts sounding like one business even when several people are involved.

We avoid claims you cannot back up. Under the CAP Code, ads on your own social channels are covered by the ASA, so a post promoting a product must be accurate, and any price, saving or "best" claim needs evidence. If you also need web pages, blog posts or email copy, see copywriting, from £45 + VAT per piece.

## Photography and video

Real images of your business almost always outperform stock. Phone footage is fine for TikTok and Reels when it is well lit, steady and edited tightly, and we can give you a simple shot list so your team films the right things. For a library of professional images or a brand video you can use for months, our sister company dijitul media handles photography and video production, and we plan the content calendar around what they shoot.

Instagram's Trial Reels feature, launched in December 2024, lets a Reel be shown to non-followers first, which is a low-risk way to test a new style before your followers see it. We use it to try new hooks and formats, then share the winners with your followers.

Yes. Send us raw clips and we edit them into short vertical videos with captions, music cleared for business use and text kept clear of the on-screen buttons. We can also give your team a shot list.

### Do you use AI to write our posts?

We may use tools to speed up drafts or ideas, but every post is written, checked and edited by a person for accuracy, tone of voice and UK advertising rules. Nothing goes out without your approval first.

Yes. Our sister company dijitul media handles business photography and video production. We plan the shoot around the coming months of content, so every image and clip has a clear use before the camera comes out.
