Grow Your Online Presence with Expert Social Media Management

Helping small businesses and charities connect with their audiences through engaging social platforms.

At SME Local CIC, we believe that social media isn’t just a place to post content—it’s where connection happens, where communities grow, and where your voice can make a lasting impact. That’s why we manage social media with purpose. Our strategies are built to engage audiences, tell powerful stories, and align with wider community goals—not just to chase likes.

As a not-for-profit, we support small businesses, CICs, and charities across Croydon and the UK with affordable and effective social media services. We don’t just help you stay active—we help you stand out. Every campaign, post, and story we manage contributes to a greater purpose: empowering visibility for underrepresented groups and amplifying the voices of those doing good in the community.

We combine our in-house expertise with insights from years of work in content marketing, audience segmentation, and trend forecasting to ensure your message cuts through the noise.

Platform Positioning & Digital Reach

We understand the importance of long-tail visibility. That’s why our social media work is integrated with wider digital strategy—ensuring content is repurposed, shared across high-authority local domains, and linked with web traffic drivers like blog posts, backlinks and email campaigns. Our deep knowledge of hyper-local digital infrastructure means we can place your content where it matters: in front of the right people, on the right platforms, at the right time.

Our collaborations with schools, community organisations, and grassroots charities further boost the organic reach and authority of your content—ensuring your voice carries farther, longer, and more meaningfully.

Let’s create a plan for your success.
