Thank you so much for supporting us with the social media training. The quality and consistency of posting has really improved, and I’m pleased to report that company and individual engagement is significantly up across LinkedIn.

I have worked with Mel both as her client and as a collaborator on a project. Mel has a great strategic insight into exactly how Social Media fits into the bigger picture and helps develop a clear strategy and structure that aligns with the business aims. She keeps up with what's working on Social Media and what's not, and her ongoing support and assistance in evaluating the performance of any Campaigns is a vital part of this. She is my 'GoTo' person when it comes to Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn!

Melanie is fantastic to work with, so knowledgeable and understands the complexities and limitations of a small business. Melanie developed a social strategy that totally met the requirements of the brief and then successfully implemented for 6 months during our busy selling season. Melanie is very communicative, always available to answer questions and has the much needed patience when working with small businesses with lots of moving parts! I would highly recommend Melanie for any business looking for a 100% trusted agency to support with their social needs.

I was the lucky winner of Melanie's March Competition and had the pleasure of spending an hour with her to talk all things marketing and social media. She gave me a fresh perspective on Love Luxury Events. Her top tips were simple, effective, and best of all actionable without having to spend hours glued to my platforms. I left our session with some great nuggets of wisdom that I could implement straight away. Melanie’s advice was spot-on, practical, and exactly what I needed to move forward with clarity and confidence.

Melanie delivered a fantastic workshop on optimising email marketing. She took the time to really understand our goals and showed us practical ways to achieve them. We gained valuable insights on segmentation, boosting sales, and email marketing best practices that actually work. We’re excited to put everything we’ve learned into action, and I’d highly recommend Melanie to anyone looking to improve their email marketing strategy.

Working with Melanie on my LinkedIn strategy and review was an absolute pleasure! She provided a comprehensive and incredibly helpful and insightful analysis that truly exceeded my expectations. Her expertise and attention to detail were evident throughout the process, and I couldn't be happier with the results and the recommendations she has suggested for myself and Creative ID, my branding and marketing business.
Melanie's personable approach made working with her a breeze, and I highly recommend her services for anyone wanting to elevate their LinkedIn, or social media presence.

I attended the Lunch and Learn, which was brilliant! Melanie is very down to earth and has many great tips, that you just can't find anywhere else. She is the Queen of Social in Sussex. The session was co-hosted by Rebecca Downie Photography. Rebecca was fab with iPhone camera tips and ideas on how to write content. Thank you, Melanie and Rebecca, for creating affordable and accessible social media training in Sussex.
Frankie Gray, Founder Harmony at Home
Thanks Mel. It was a brilliant course. Massively informative and dispelled a number of worries shared by the group in using Linkedin effectively. I came away feeling that I had a great foundation to start using Linkedin properly and get the most out of it.

UKMB appointed the Sussex Social as our preferred marketing partner in March 2024 and since we have started working with Melanie Johnson she has implemented a well thought out marketing strategy and created some fantastic content for our monthly newsletters and social media posts. This in turn has introduced UKMB to a wider client base and given us a bigger presence within our marketplace which has been invaluable to our growth and development. Melanie has exceptional marketing skills with a high level of professionalism and integrity. Her work is always focussed with a strong direction but she can also accommodate other people’s ideas and is happy to work as part of the team. I would highly recommend the Sussex Social to anyone that is looking for a marketing partner that can deliver results and bring further success to your business.
Paul Moody, UK Metrology Board
Since working with Mel, I feel like I am on the right track with my social media and have found ways to niche and batch my content and pricing and to market my services differently. The course is easy to access, in bite-sized pieces of work that are easy to fit into your week and helps you to gain clarity over what you really need to be doing on SM to save you time. The content was great, but there was also so much value in the weekly coaching calls in terms of providing accountability and helping me to come up with and implement some great new ideas. I now have clarity, direction and more ideas for engagement and visibility around my social media marketing.
