It is a second search engine
People search inside Facebook, and local groups pass names around all day long. If your page has your area, your services and your number filled in, you come up. If it is half empty, you do not.
Facebook management · Included on Elite
Your Facebook page, posted to and looked after, without you touching it.
Most local businesses we meet have a Facebook page with four posts on it, the last one from two summers ago. We set yours up properly, post to it regularly and keep the details right, so anyone who checks you out sees a business that is obviously still trading. Included in our Elite plan at £150 a month, only £5 a day.

Why it matters
Even if you hate Facebook, your customers check it.
Somebody gets your name from a neighbour. Before they ring, they look you up. For a lot of local trades Facebook is the first place they land, ahead of your website and sometimes ahead of Google. A page with nothing on it since 2023 reads like a business that has packed up.
It answers "are they still going?"
One post from last week does more for trust than a page full of glowing comments from two years ago. Recency is the whole point.
It feeds your website
Every post points back at your site, where there is a form, a phone button and something that can actually take an enquiry. The page is the shop window, the site is the till.
The posting
What actually goes on the page.
Nothing clever, nothing cringe. The stuff local people stop scrolling for is finished work, useful reminders and knowing you have a gap next week.
Jobs you have finished
You send photos from your phone when you remember. We crop them, write the couple of lines that go underneath and put them up. If a month goes by with no photos, we still post, using what is already on your website.
Seasonal nudges
Gutters before the leaves come down. Boiler checks before it turns cold. Patios before the first barbecue. Timed to your trade, not to a generic content calendar.
Gaps in the diary
Quiet fortnight coming up? Tell us and we will put something out to fill it. This is the post that most often turns into a phone call.
How the access works
The page stays yours, always.
01
Your account
We get added, not handed it
The page sits under your own Facebook account and we get added as an Editor. Exactly the same arrangement we use for Google. Nothing is ever created under our name.
02
Setup
We fill it out properly
Category, service area, hours, phone number, website link, an about section that reads like a person wrote it, and a cover image in your brand.
03
Running
We post, you carry on working
Posts go out on a rhythm we agree with you. You send photos when you have them and otherwise forget about it.
04
Leaving
You remove us and nothing breaks
If you ever stop the plan you take our access off and the page carries on exactly as it is, with every post still on it. No hostage taking.
Being straight with you
What is not included.
Social media gets oversold more than anything else we do, so here is the honest boundary.
Paid ads are not part of it
Managing your page is included. Running paid Facebook ads needs a budget on top of your plan, and for some trades it genuinely is not worth it. Ask us and you will get an honest answer either way.
We are not sat on your messages
Comments and messages still come through to you, because the person asking wants you, not us. If something needs a reply from the page itself, tell us and we will handle it.
We do not buy followers
Bought followers are people in another country who will never hire you. A small local following that actually sees your posts is worth more than a big number that does nothing.
Facebook management sits on Elite, alongside the AI quote bot. If getting found on Google matters more to you right now, start with Google Business Profile management on the Growth plan instead.

Kind words
What our clients actually say.
Unbelievable experience working with Apex. I have used other website companies before but this site is far better and more fluid, and they sorted my SEO too. Communication is second to none, you can tell they genuinely care about your business.
Used Apex design for a new website redevelopment, Alex was extremely professional and designed to my accordance. Would highly recommend to local businesses in need of a high quality website redesign.
Apex Design Studio, has been an amazing service, very helpful, and full of very niche ideas to uplift your business portfolio. Very trustworthy and without a doubt will be recommended to anyone that will need this sort of service.
Questions
Good to know.
Straight answers, in plain English. Anything we have not covered, just ask.
Still have a question?
Talk to a real person on the South Coast. We usually reply the same day.
Elite, at £150 a month, which is £5 a day. It sits on top of everything in Growth, so you keep the search optimisation, the Google Business Profile work and the AI lead bot as well.
We agree a rhythm with you at the start based on how much is going on in your trade. Some businesses want something up most weeks, others are better with a steady handful a month. We would rather agree a pace we can keep than promise a number we cannot.
Yes. Facebook attaches every business page to a personal profile, there is no way around it. Your personal profile stays private and separate, nobody visiting the page sees it.
Not as part of the plan. Ads need a separate budget and we will give you a straight opinion on whether they suit your trade before you spend anything.
You do, completely. It lives under your account and we are added as an Editor. Remove that access whenever you like and the page keeps every post on it.
Not part of the plan today. If one of them matters to your business, say so when we talk and we will agree it properly upfront rather than promise it loosely and let you down.
