Hi, I'm Nic, the face behind tidy socials.I offer professional Instagram management for trades who'd rather be on the tools than editing reels. I turn your incredible projects into Instagram content that stops the scroll and brings in an audience who get what you do.

I manage Instagram for trade businesses across Cardiff helping landscape gardeners and home renovation trades stay visible online without lifting a finger.
What I offer
⭐️ Full Instagram management: strategy, content and regular posting sorted
⭐️ On-site content creation. I can visit your projects to capture professional photos and videos
⭐️ Facebook cross-posting included if you run a business page too

I only work with local trades in Cardiff because I believe real relationships build better results. When your customers are just around the corner, your online presence should feel personal and genuine, not generic or cookie-cutter.I'm based in North Cardiff and focus on trades working across the city who want to connect with local clients who value quality craftsmanship.
I grew up surrounded by people who made things. Furniture makers, designers, gardeners and craftspeople who understood that the details matter. Their influence sparked a lifelong love affair with creating and growing things myself.For over a decade, I ran an allotment where I learned that great gardens, like great businesses, need patience, planning and consistent care. At home, there's always a project on the go. Whether I'm transforming a room or tackling the next improvement that'll make our house feel more like us. I'm that person who gets genuinely excited about a newly laid patio or a beautifully finished piece of joinery!After 20+ years in design and digital marketing, I've channeled this hands-on understanding into helping landscape gardeners and home renovation trades stand out online. I know how to translate your craftsmanship into visuals and words that connect with the right clients, the ones who appreciate quality work and understand the value of expertise.

The Challenge
Adam was swamped with work and hadn't posted for 10 months on his socials. Between client enquiries, site visits, garden design and building landscapes with his team, social media kept falling to the bottom of his to-do list. He knew he needed a consistent online presence to attract premium clients, but he just didn't have the time.The Results
After I took over his Instagram management, his results jumped dramatically. Reels went from 200 views to over 5,000+ organically, and one YouTube video hit 23k views! New carousel designs showcasing garden transformations became his top-performing content and he's now ranking highly for Cardiff garden landscaping in Google's short-form video results.The Impact
A consistent, professional social media presence has positioned Adam as a top premium landscaping service and it's now bringing in bigger and more ambitious garden projects for him.

Q: I’m not a tradesperson but can we still work together?
A: If you’re a Cardiff business that makes, builds or creates something real, absolutely. I love helping creative, hands-on businesses tell their story online.Q: Do you only manage Instagram and Facebook?
A: Yes, those are my main platforms because they work best for short-form video and local businesses. I can also share your content to YouTube but I don’t currently manage TikTok.Q: Can you manage my socials if I send you my own photos and videos?
A: Of course! Lots of my clients do exactly that. I’ll handle everything from planning to posting and we can add content days later if you ever need them.
Getting started is simple:Step 1: Fill in my short questionnaire so I can learn about your business and what you're looking for.Step 2: I'll review your answers and get back to you within 48 hours to discuss next steps.Step 3: We agree on a plan and I get to work making your Instagram work for you.No pushy sales calls.
