This case study briefly displays the work I produced for the company in early 2022. Socials Tailored to reach a younger audience When Joe took ownership of Ashwood Designs, it was crucial to make his mark and showcase the progress the business was making. To achieve this, we developed a comprehensive social media strategy and launch to coincide with the unveiling of the new logo. I posted once a week, creating a consistent and fresh brand image across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. For Instagram, we created engaging image and short-form video content, tailored to reach a younger and more diverse audience. Joe’s goal was to expand the business’s reach and connect with potential customers in a more personal and meaningful way.

The setting of the Ashwood office was perfect as the abundance of green plants in the office worked excellent with the colours and clean aesthetic of Ashwood. See the gallery Start a project

MIDTOWN MILKHOUSE CASE STUDY From the fells naturally Services Branding Web Design Photography Social Management Graphic design A family-run farm based in the village of Caldbeck, a hidden gem in the Northern Lake District. Midtown Milkhouse is a fresh milk vending machine that offers a range of local produce including milk, cheese, meat and baked goods. The family prides itself in diversifying the traditional dairy farm model to create an option for zero-mile food production. The business’s success over the last two years is a testament to the values of this farm and the people who run it. Through digital marketing, it has reached a huge audience of 2.8 million views on the #midtownmilkhouse on Tik Tok and has a following of over 11,000 across multiple social media channels. Socials Self-serve milkshakes became very popular Since launching in August of 2020, during the lockdown, the milkhouse has seen huge success across the North of England with customers travelling up to 6 hours to come and visit the “Famous Midtown Milkhouse” The shop reached its peak in the winter of 2020 when it added a shaky cow milkshake bar. Around this time, social distancing measures prevented households from mixing or socialising, therefore making self-serve milkshakes became very popular. Social media helped the business massively and by utilising this during this time we grew an audience of 6 thousand on Instagram. We kept our audience engaged with content that included competitions and short-form videos. I was able to share the brand’s story with a huge audience over social media, which resulted in them gaining massive amounts of new customers.

In the end, we decided to use the Stable building that sits within the farmyard.  Learn more WEB Design The goal was to… tell a story The website’s goal was to tell the story of Midtown Farm, while also providing customers with all the necessary information they need when visiting.
