Turning social media into a new business channel.
The challenge
MP Digital is a Nottingham-based web development agency with 22 years’ experience. They came to Rate to sharpen their social media strategy and build the professional profile of their Managing Director, turning social from a broadcast channel into something that could generate business.
Our approach
Rate developed a content strategy built around the web development community rather than the agency itself, using industry tips, insight and community-relevant content to grow engagement organically. Twitter engagement grew by 700% as a result.
The MD’s professional presence was developed through interview-style video content for LinkedIn, amplifying his credibility within the industry and supporting new business conversations. Using targeted content and carefully timed outreach on Instagram, Rate generated international business leads from the US, turning social media into an active new business channel.
