Summary

Hi, I’m looking for a social media manager + content creator to work with me long term on a UK-focused entertainment/media brand. The main platforms will be TikTok, Instagram, X/Twitter, Facebook and YouTube. The content will cover trending UK entertainment and internet culture, including: • UK music & artists • Influencers & content creators • Podcasts & YouTubers • Celebrities & reality TV • Viral social media moments • Entertainment news & online drama • Memes, trending stories and discussions What I need you to do: • Research what is trending in UK media and social media • Find stories/topics with viral potential • Come up with daily content ideas • Write strong hooks and video scripts • Create/edit engaging short-form videos for TikTok, Instagram, Facebook & YouTube Shorts • Write engaging captions and posts for Instagram/Facebook • Write original X posts, commentary, questions, threads and reactions • Adapt content for each platform rather than simply copying the same post • Schedule/publish content • Engage with comments, replies and relevant conversations • Monitor analytics and identify what is performing well • React quickly to breaking/trending stories I want the content to feel like a UK entertainment/viral media page, not a corporate social-media account. Understanding UK culture, humour, artists, influencers and online trends is very important. You don’t need to be UK-based, but you must be able to research and understand UK trends and entertainment. I’m looking for a long-term working relationship and will pay weekly. If things work well, I expect the workload to increase. Please send me: 1. Examples of social accounts you have managed 2. Examples of videos/content you have created 3. Any entertainment/music/influencer experience 4. Which platforms you can manage 5. How many videos/posts you can produce per week 6. Your weekly price for the service I’d like to start with a paid trial so I can see your creativity, content quality and understanding of UK trends before committing long term. Hi the end goal is to take this page very far and build a following I can monetise from I plan on streaming , becoming a content creator , to start a 3 seperate podacast bewteeen my team , a clothing brand . I already have the clothing brand , freestyle platform name and podcast ideas set out but I’m not really a person who likes to start from the ground as low views and interactions will throw me off and demotivate me so my first step is to build up the media page and start streaming to gain some popularity and a following that I can then sell my clothing brand to whilst driving consumers to the rest of my content whether it be my social media’s or podcast or freestyle videos so I can earn from streams and ad revenue at eventually start getting paid by labels to promote their artist What’s frustrating me most is I don’t have time to see tackle the task of researching and being active on social media to spot trending or viral stories early as I’m busy doing other things , turning attention into loyal audience and also creating the content myself as I’m not really skilled in that department I want my page to look professional and consistsnt like you would see with bouncerplaydirty , imjustbait and theshadeborough
