How to get your business noticed in Grimsby
Five practical ways to get your business noticed in Grimsby, from your Google Business Profile to vans, signs and social media.
I design social media graphics and editable templates that make your feed look like it belongs to one business, not five different people with five different apps. Profile images, cover banners, posts, stories and reel covers, all set up in Canva or Figma so your team can swap the words and photos without breaking the layout. Based in Grimsby, I work with businesses and charities across North East Lincolnshire who want to post confidently and keep it looking right.
Most small businesses post whatever they can find time for. One week it's a phone photo with white text slapped on top, the next it's a free template that half the town is also using. Fonts change, colours drift, and the logo turns up stretched or blurry. None of it is a disaster on its own, but together it makes a good business look unsure of itself.
Good social media graphics fix that without adding to your workload. You get a small set of layouts built around your brand, ready to fill in, so posting takes ten minutes and still looks like it came from the same place every time.
There's no shared layout, so each one is designed from scratch by whoever is free.
The logo is cut off in the circle or too small to read on a phone.
A new product, event or offer needs a set of graphics that hang together across every platform.
They'd happily do it if there was something ready to edit.
I design what you'll use most, set up so it's quick to reuse and hard to get wrong.
A pack of layouts built in Canva or Figma, with your fonts, colours and logo locked in place and clear spaces for text and photos. You get a shared link, not just flat images.
A profile image that reads clearly in a small circle, plus cover banners for Facebook and LinkedIn (around 1584 x 396 px for a LinkedIn banner) with key details kept inside the safe area for mobile.
Portrait posts at 1080 x 1350 px, square where it suits, and full-screen 1080 x 1920 px stories and reel covers, with text kept clear of the buttons and captions each app lays on top.
A matching run of graphics for a launch, event or fundraising push: teaser, announcement, countdown and reminder, so the whole campaign looks planned. Pairs well with print and brochure design.
Reusable layouts for opening hours, new staff, sale prices, class timetables and events, so the everyday posts look as considered as the big ones.
A short PDF showing which template to use for what, how to swap a photo and what not to move, plus PNG or JPG exports of every layout.
For YMCA Humber I designed campaigns, posters, leaflets, table talkers and event graphics that all share one clear visual voice. It's the same thinking behind a good social set: one idea, applied consistently wherever people see it.
The work for CrossFit Grimsby included a seagull mascot, slogan prints and a Lifting Club badge for tees, totes and bottles. Bold, short-form graphics like these show how I handle punchy messages that need to land at a glance.
I look at your current accounts, your brand and what you actually post, so the templates match real needs rather than guesses.
I create the layouts and show them filled with your real content, so you can judge them as they'll appear in the feed.
Once approved, I set everything up in Canva or Figma with locked brand elements and editable text and image areas.
You get the shared files, exported examples and the how-to guide, plus a short call to walk your team through it.
Quick answers to what people usually ask about social media graphics before starting. If yours isn't here, just get in touch.
No. I design, you post. Conker isn't a social media management agency, so I don't write captions, schedule content or reply to comments, but your team will have everything they need to do it well.
A social template pack of six templates is from £250, and campaign sets are quoted on what's involved. Every project gets a fixed quote before work starts, and I'm not VAT registered, so there's nothing to add on top.
A standard pack of social media graphics usually takes two to three weeks from our first conversation to handover. If you have a launch date, tell me early and I'll plan around it.
If your team already uses Canva, I'll build there, as it's the easiest for non-designers to edit. Figma suits teams with a designer in-house or anyone who wants tighter control over layouts.
Social media graphics work best when there's a clear logo, colours and fonts behind them. If you're starting from scratch, have a look at brand identity first, and I can design your social set as part of that.
Platforms do tweak their crops from time to time. I design with safe margins so small changes don't break anything, and I can update a pack at my hourly rate if a bigger change comes along.
Yes. I'm based in Grimsby and work with businesses across North East Lincolnshire, including Cleethorpes, Immingham, Waltham and Laceby. Most of the work happens over shared files and calls.
