How the work was structured
A Dorset trades business needed a reliable monthly content system that could run alongside a busy job schedule without demanding time from the owner. I set up a recurring filming structure one day per month, captured across active jobs and turned it into a steady stream of posting-ready clips and photos. Twelve assets per month, structured handover, nothing for the client to chase.
What was delivered
Real output for this project focused on 12 short-form videos per month + 3 more deliverables so the business could improve trust signals across the places prospects already check.
- 12 short-form videos per month
- Monthly on-site filming day across active jobs
- Caption packs and posting notes per asset
- Structured Google Drive handover each cycle
What changed for the client
Moved from sporadic, inconsistent uploads to a reliable weekly publishing rhythm. Twelve short-form assets delivered per month give the business a continuous stream of trust-building content that works between referrals.
