You all know by now how much I LOVE Halloween, so I couldn’t resist a spooky twist on social media this month…

Welcome to the Social Media Trend Graveyard! 🪦👻

Some trends had their moment, but let’s be honest - they deserved to be buried a long time ago. From cringey engagement hacks to viral gimmicks that added zero value, we’re laying them to rest once and for all.

Which trend are you glad to see in the graveyard? 🪦

Yes, I’m in social media marketing - but I’m not naive. I know this space can be heavy, overwhelming and full of comparison. Even when your intentions are good, like creating content, connecting and learning, it can creep in.

That’s why I’m all about making social media work for you. Curate your feed, protect your energy and focus on the content that inspires, motivates and empowers you.

This is your space. Make it one that lifts you up, fuels your creativity and reminds you why social media can actually be a place for good.

Looking ahead to October means looking ahead to Q4 — the busiest (and often most exciting) time of the year for so many businesses. The energy is high, the opportunities are big and how you show up online now can make all the difference.

This season isn’t about posting just to keep up. It’s about planning posts with intention, so you can connect with your audience in a way that actually sticks, and *still* have space to enjoy everything else this season brings. 🍂 Some of these key dates could help you do just that while creating some fun, meaningful content.

If you’re ready to head into Q4 with confidence about your social media marketing, let’s work together! From a one-to-one Power Hour to team training, I’ll help you refine your strategy and create content that gets results.

DM me to book your Power Hour and let’s make this Q4 your strongest yet! 🙌

Sometimes it’s nice to step out from behind the flamingo and say a proper hello 👋

So...Hi there! I’m Brianna — Marketing strategist, lecturer in digital marketing & social media at the University of Salford and founder of Digital Flamingo 🦩. I’ve been in this world for nearly a decade, helping businesses cut through the noise online with strategies that actually make an impact.

But beyond the strategy and campaigns, I’m also a Florida native now happily rooted in Manchester, a celebrator of celebrations 🎉, a full-on Halloween fanatic 👻, unapologetic pumpkin spice enthusiast 🎃, and new dog mom to Cole 🐶 who keeps me on my toes and away from the laptop.

This space is all about supporting businesses and encouraging authenticity, because that’s what really connects us online.

And as we step back into the swing of things before the full-on chaos of Q4, it’s the perfect time to reintroduce yourself to your audience too. Share a fun fact, a behind-the-scenes snap or something that shows the human side of your business. Trust me, it makes all the difference!

🍂 Happy September! Who else thinks this month feels like a total reset? We’re nearly back to normal after the summer holiday season and heading straight into the most exciting time of the year. EEK!

I know it’s not quite Q4 yet, but September definitely gives off those vibes...and it’s about to get BUSY. Luckily, this is my favourite kind of chaos. If you need a social media cheerleader in your corner, I’ve got you. Whether it’s a Power Hour to get you prepped or team training to keep everyone on the same page, I can help you plan with purpose (and yes, spots are limited this month!).

What else is happening? The next Tameside Female Entrepreneurs meet-up on 18th September! This one’s packed with talks on growth mindset, HR, and of course plenty of time for networking. We’re booking up quickly, so DM me to grab your spot.

So yes, September is shaping up to be B-U-S-Y around here…but I’m still making time to enjoy my favourite season. I may or may not already be three pumpkin spice lattes in...👀 If you ever fancy a PSL and a chat, you know where to find me! ☕

Here’s to making September the month that sets us up for the best Q4 yet. 🙌

It’s International Dog Day 🐾 so naturally, Cole deserves the spotlight!

If you haven't seen - I recently became a dog mom. We got Cole from Dogs Trust six weeks ago now, and he's a really good boy! Loves cheese, scrambled egg and walks. He's a super sociable pup, and loves people and other dogs.

Although adjusting to life with a dog has been tough, he’s been keeping me sane as a business owner — dragging me away from the laptop, reminding me to step outside and proving that sometimes the best productivity hack is…a walk.

But here’s where I need your help! Every good sidekick needs a job title. He can’t be Chief Cheese Tester (that’s my role, obviously 🧀😂), so what should it be?
💼 Chief 'Barketing' Officer?
🐕 Director of Walks?
🐾 Head of 'Zoom'ies?

I'd love to hear your ideas, so drop your best ideas below and let’s make it official!

September always feels like a reset, doesn’t it? While we’re not diving into Q4 just yet, it’s the perfect time to ease back in and spark some fresh content ideas.

As a reminder, these “just-for-fun” dates aren’t a necessity - they’re simply here to give you inspiration and help you connect with your audience in a more relatable way. Think of them as little conversation starters that get the ball rolling again after summer (Anyone fancy "Talk Like a Pirate Day"? 😆)

And if you’re ready to get serious about Q4 prep (or just need a refresh on best practices, or even a big ol’ brainstorm together), my one-to-one Power Hours are open to book now, with limited availability in September. Let’s make this season your strongest yet! 🙌

Happy August!

Whaaaaat a month July was. Supposedly a time where things slow down, but honestly, I think I had a record number of meetings and content to create. Wild. 🤯

August looks like more of the same, and you know what? I’m here for it. Because so many of you are already thinking ahead, prepping for September, when things really hit the ground running into a certain festive season that begins with “C”…👀

So, a little heads-up: I’ve got limited availability this month for 1-to-1 Power Hours. If you want to get ahead on your end-of-Q3 and Q4 planning, now’s the time to book in. Because the earlier you plan your campaigns, the more space you have to:
✔️ Create thoughtful content
✔️ Be consistent (even when things get chaotic)
✔️ Stay visible while your competitors scramble last-minute

Wishing you a fun and sunny August, whether you’re squeezing in a holiday, deep in planning or doing a bit of both!

New Instagram feature alert: QUIZZES in captions!

Yep, you can now add a mini quiz right in your caption, and it’s a clever little tool for boosting engagement in a really fun, low-pressure way.

Why’s this a big deal? Because Instagram’s been shifting towards more interactive, community-driven content and features like this are designed to keep people tapping, reading and actually engaging with your posts (not just liking and scrolling past).

➡️ A few ideas for how to use it:
- Test your audience’s knowledge in your niche
- Start a playful debate or myth-busting moment
- Use it to add extra value to your carousel (head over to my IG .flamingo to see this one in action!)

August is all about late summer energy – playful, reflective as things slow and yet full of potential. It’s the perfect time to create content that sparks connection, slows the scroll and leaves a lasting impression before the busy season kicks in. 🌞

If you’re planning ahead to protect your peace (and your time!), here are a few gentle, creative prompts to help. As usual, there is never any pressure to jump on anything – but if something resonates with you and your audience, go for it!

Need a sounding board? Book a Power Hour and let’s shape content that’s easy, engaging, and unmistakably you!
