Social Media Marketing from £65pm
Email Marketing | Content Creation | Logos & Branding | Printed Business Materials & more! If you’re reading this, then the chances are that you run or own a small business, probably by yourself, and you’re more than likely feeling a little lost, stuck or just a little bit ‘meh’ about the whole experience. Business is hard, and lonely, especially when you’re in it

on your own. In the age of the entrepreneur/ infopreneur/ the-next-big-thing-preneur, there’s a lot of pressure to succeed, to be self sufficient, to be awesome - like ALL the time, and frankly, it’s exhausting. You have to be all things to all people, have amazing products and services, provide service with a smile, look like you know what you’re doing, be confident when you’re not feeling it, and be positive when you’re feeling anything but. Not only that but you probably have the week’s meals to sort out, school runs, kids, pets .. and that’s before you even stop to consider the last time you had a day off. I mean ACTUALLY helps you? Yes, there may government enterprise schemes and one off local workshops but what about ongoing support and training, advice when you need it and relevant courses and workshops on the topics YOU need help with?? This is why The McNeal Method came into being. Affordable business coaching now exists! I’m a 40-something mama with a small business, wanting to help others through my experience. I don’t believe in paying for any help if you can get it for free, and when you can’t get it for free, it needs to be affordable, but still bring the results you need. No-one seemed to be providing that, which vexed me. Coaches were charging upwards of £100 an hour. Courses were hundreds of pounds. Network groups were hundreds of pounds a year. This - I thought - is not accessible or realistic for the people like us who have tiny businesses. I tell my clients, “if you can’t find a way, make one.” .. so that’s what I did, and here we are. Through my business support group, ‘The Business Owners Network’ I reach out to hundreds of business owners just like you, who find huge benefits in having somewhere they can be amongst others who they can chat with, laugh with, commiserate the bad days and celebrate the great days with. With my one to one coaching I provide affordable and practical hands on help for you and your business on any topic needed, to guide you to achieve the growth you need. From productivity to Pinterest, marketing to email campaigns, Facebook, Instagram and Advert Design, you’ll learn at the right pace for you. If there’s something you need help with and can’t find on the site, please feel free to email me!

Have you ever wondered just how Google prioritises it's search results?

Google - like any platform - has algorithms at play constantly, which also change and evolve regularly, so trying to keep up with them is a full time job (mine, not yours thankfully for you!)

Google has for a long time used the E-A-T system, which stands for Expertise (what makes you an authority in your field?), Authoritativeness (the information you put out) and Trustworthiness (reviews, being current and active, back links).
However, there has been a recent change to this, so now it is focusing on E-E-A-T, and as you can see they've sneaked another E in there.

The extra E stands for Experience - Google wants to see content and websites which demonstrate well researched and grounded content.

So if you're writing a blog post for example, you wouldn't want to just write '10 best places to stay in Dubai' you would need to add your own personal experience of those places, your own thoughts, and make it authentic.
Your content online needs to go beyond lists and information - it needs to contain your unique perspective, personality and insights if you want Google to rank you higher for your content and website.

So why have they made this change?
As we all know, we are living in a world of AI everything, with people (especially content creators) praising the speediness and adaptability, and while that is true and it can do amazing things to make your day easier, it is also harming your website ranking if you use this too much.

Are you updating your Google Business Profile?
Do you even have one?

If not, then you could be missing out on a lot of new business!
If you're a hair salon who you hasn't set up your Google Business profile and someone searches 'hair extensions near me' .. they're calling another salon as they won't find you easily. The same applies for every trade and industry!

Your Google Business profile acts as a salesperson for you, don't just set it up and forget about it! Update it regularly with pics, posts, offers & products if you have them! Update contact details, opening hours and anything else!

Make sure you encourage Google reviews all the time, on EVERY SINGLE JOB and with every customer!

A Website is where your information is displayed, but a search engine is what drives the traffic there from people who don't know you .. yet. Having a great Google listing helps push your information through Google Maps, and users can click directly onto your business through Google searches.

REMEMBER this is a FREE service from Google, and if you're not doing this then you probably need to look at your marketing efforts.

Do you hate thinking about social media for YOUR business?

Running a business is hard enough without the constant pressure of worrying about social media, right?

What do I post?
Is now the right time to post it?
How can I make a reel without my face in it?
I can’t think of anything to post!
I never know what to say!
I can’t design anything fancy!
I don’t even know if I’m doing it right?!What algorithm?!

Believe me when I say we’ve heard every curse word when it comes to social media - it’s the one job that EVERYONE hates and no-one wants to do!

You’ve probably wished that someone would just do it for you.
Maybe someone has tried - a younger family member or junior member of the team, but it’s not REALLY their job so they do it if and when they have time or remember, but at least that means you don’t have to think about it..?!

Or maybe you work alone, and have thought about hiring someone to do it for you, but you’ve had quotes for more than you can really afford.

We know this because we’ve been where you are right now, and let’s be honest, it sucks. It’s a ni**le you can do without, and your time would be better spent doing other things. That’s where we come in.

You can be FREE of social media for as long as you want to be.
We’ll create your branded content including reels, stories, quotes, info posts and graphics.

We’ll schedule 3 regular and consistent posts to go out at the best times for your customers to see them every week, month by month.
There’s no tie in period, you can have as much or as little input as you like with the content, - if you want to send pictures for us to use, you can, or if you prefer to just leave it to us, that’s fine too!

You can choose 1, 2 or 3 platforms like Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn and Twitter (X), and prices start from just £15 a week.

Are you ready to hand it over and feel smug in the knowledge that your posting pressure is a thing of the past?
Drop us a message and let’s do this!

WOW! 😮

What a difference!
These are very real stats from a social media client. I have only been posting for a couple of weeks for them, and the magic has happened already.

The red figures the week I took over mean that everything was definitely NOT ok, and then after posting for them for a week or so, everything is in green, just the way I like it!

Is it magic? Is it paid for?
No, and no! No magic, just years of experience and knowing what works.
And no money was used! I rarely advise paying for promoting content without good reason. Organic is always best until you have built up a little momentum first.

Who's got your back?

When it comes to spreading the word about your business, a referral circle can make a HUGE difference, maybe the biggest difference of all.

A study by Nielsen found that consumers were 77% more likely to buy a product if their friends recommended it, and that word-of-mouth marketing results in 5x more sales than paid media adverts. See why it's so powerful?

It's one thing for people to see your content and read your posts, but when other people shout out about you and sing your praises, people are far more likely to get in touch with you.

If you have even a handful of people who regularly refer you to others, more and more new costumers will come your way without you having to do anything or spend money on trying to attract them. In the last few weeks I have had people contact me who have been referred by people I don't even know! Word of mouth spreads, and it works like magic - as long as you can live up to expectations!

But how do you get to this to happen?
Well, first of all you have to provide an amazing service or product. People won't stick their neck out to refer an 'ok' business. You need to be outstanding.

Secondly, you need to be willing and able to return the favour.
A referral circle only works when you refer others too, it's only fair - and ALL small businesses like yours need the help just as much as you do.

The reason they work so well isn't just the fact that people are more likely to buy from personally recommended businesses. It also gets your business in front of hundreds of new people who you otherwise would never know.
Think about that.

If you want to start a referral circle, see if you can link up with a couple of other businesses who are also active on social media or in networking circles. When someone needs your service they would put you forward, and you will do the same for them. Let me know how you get on!

An amazing local business has branched out, and needed to stay on brand but with a tiny tweak to include their new direction. So a new logo was created ....
Love how bold and bright this is! What do you think?

Knowing what you're doing on social media, the tips and tricks, the best kinds of content, measuring reactions, the consistency, the content creation .... the HOURS of wondering, head scratching and stressing ...

Imagine paying £15 a week and never having to think about it again!
No paying for ads, complicated systems or anything else.
This local plumbing business did just that and this was the result after just a couple of weeks. Real results - real business - real support.

Make 2026 the year that YOU say goodbye to social media stress!
