The social media strategy that took the region and UK by storm
My aim was to raise awareness of Somerset Day, gain exposure, increase community involvement and partner participation for 2019. Somerset Day CIC is a not-for-profit community interest company and has the single aim of celebrating Somerset as a place to live, learn, work and play.

DETAILS
With the main aim for Somerset Day 2019 to see an increase in involvement, I created a social media strategy for the year to drive engagement within local communities.
Due to Somerset Day being a CIC, there was no budget for paid advertising so all activity had to be completely organic. I promoted involvement for the big day from January and began discussions with partners about how they could be more actively involved with the CIC.
Somerset Day’s social media accounts come alive with community engagement throughout the month of May (Somerset Day is May 11th), which is why I recommend creating bespoke social media campaigns in association with Somerset Day’s partners to see a surge in results for all involved.
RESULTS
14 million impressions for the #SomersetDay hashtag, an increase of 539% from 2018
