Ruth Southorn - Swallowtail Social

Swallowtail Social

I’m Ruth, and I help busy small business owners who aren’t ready to outsource their marketing (especially the solopreneurs and companies of one who are spinning all the plates themselves) so that they can get social media working for them, without burning out. Social media shouldn’t suck the life out of you, so I guide clients through the social media ‘techy jungle’ and boost their confidence about what they ‘should’ post strategically and how to go about it practically.

I specialise in Facebook, Instagram (and even Pinterest!) marketing.

I offer online and in-person training via 1-2-1 coaching sessions (such as Half-Day Intensives, or multi-session short courses), as well as group workshops. For example, my classes cover hands-on topics from “Design with Canva for Beginners” to “Instagram Reels for Small Businesses”, supporting clients with knowhow and to be more productive… all to get real results on social media.

I also offer a signature ‘Social Media Co-Pilot’ service – live, pay-as-you-go hourly support (online or in-person in Bristol/Keynsham areas) – for those struggling to be consistent with social media marketing. Posting together, I’ll guide and advise you to help you keep your posts on track.

Whatever you’re looking to achieve, my friendly, down-to-earth coaching style means we cut through jargon and focus on what really works for your unique brand and audience.
