You are running a business. You are quoting jobs, answering phones, managing staff, chasing invoices, and somewhere in the back of your head there is a persistent low-grade guilt about the fact that your Facebook page has not been posted on since February and your Google Business Profile still says you close at 4pm on Fridays. You know online marketing matters. You just have precisely zero spare hours to do anything about it.

That is exactly why this service exists.

hugmypc offers a straightforward, hands-on online marketing service built specifically for small businesses on the Gold Coast. Not a big agency. Not a team of account managers you will never meet in person. One person who will actually learn your business, build a content plan around it, and get on with it - without needing to chase you for content every single week.

What This Is (and What It Is Not)

This is not a set-and-forget content mill that pumps out generic stock-photo posts with captions that could belong to any business in any city. Anyone can pay for that, and frankly, it shows.

This is a bespoke, managed marketing service where we sit down with you at the start, map out what your business actually does, who your customers are, and what you want to be known for. From there, we build a content schedule and topic plan that reflects your business - not a template. Each month we have a brief catch-up to plan the month ahead, review what performed well, and adjust the direction. You stay in the loop without being buried in it.

You provide the intelligence. We handle everything else.

Tip: The most effective small business social content comes from real moments - a job you just finished, a new piece of equipment, a milestone reached. You do not need to write anything. Just send us a quick message when something happens and we will do the rest.

How It Works

1
Setup and Strategy Workshop
We start with a one-off setup engagement. This covers a strategy workshop where we get to know your business properly, a full audit of your existing platforms, LinkedIn profile setup or optimisation, a content schedule and topic forecast, and complete account configuration across all active channels. This is where the foundation gets built right - so the ongoing work actually means something.
2
Ongoing Monthly Management
Each month runs on autopilot from your end. We create and schedule posts, manage your Google Business Profile, handle community engagement, and keep your SEO and directory listings in order. Before anything goes live, you get a quick look for approval - we are not putting words in your mouth without a sign-off. That is the only thing we need from you regularly, and it takes about two minutes.
3
Monthly Report and Planning Catch-Up
At the end of each month you receive a plain-English performance report covering reach, engagement, and any SEO movements worth noting. We follow that up with a brief catch-up - a phone call or quick meeting - to plan the content direction for the month ahead. The service gets smarter and more tailored over time as we learn what works for your specific audience and market.

The three phases of the hugmypc online marketing service - setup, ongoing management, and monthly review.

What Is Included in the Monthly Retainer

The $500 per month retainer covers the full ongoing service. Here is exactly what that includes:

Service Detail
Social media posts Up to 3 posts per week across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn (scalable to 1-2 posts if preferred)
AI-assisted graphics and visuals Custom graphics created for each post, manually refined for layout and brand consistency
Community engagement Basic comment responses and reactions managed on your behalf
Google Business Profile management Profile kept current, posts published, and Google Reviews monitored and responded to
SEO management Meta titles, meta descriptions, and keyword optimisation kept current and relevant
Local directory listings Listings maintained across Google, Yelp, True Local, Yellow Pages, and other relevant directories
Monthly performance report Plain-English report covering key metrics, plus a brief planning catch-up for the month ahead
Heads up: This service covers organic marketing - posts, profiles, SEO, and directories. It does not include paid advertising (Meta Ads, Google Ads, etc.). If you want to add a paid ads component, that is quoted separately based on your goals and budget.

Pricing - Straightforward and No Lock-In

There are no long-term contracts here. Month to month, one month's notice to cancel. That is it. We would rather earn your business every month than trap you in a 12-month agreement.

$350
One-Off Setup Fee
Strategy workshop, platform audit, LinkedIn setup, content schedule, and full account configuration. Paid once.
~ $500
Monthly Retainer
Based on up to 3 posts per week as standard - flexible up or down to suit your budget and content availability.

All prices in AUD. Additional services quoted separately - bespoke graphic design from $150 per asset, website design and content updates from $350/month.

How we approach it day to day: This is not a set-it-and-post-it service. Each week we allocate dedicated time to engagement signals, content timing, and keeping your Google Business Profile active with fresh posts and prompt review responses. SEO meta data gets reviewed and refined as your rankings move. And rather than bolting Google Reviews on as an afterthought, we work with you early on to weave a review request into the natural end of your existing jobs or customer touchpoints - so the five-star feedback starts flowing without you having to think about it.

Who This Is Right For

This service suits Gold Coast small businesses that have a genuine online presence to maintain - or want to build one - but do not have the time, inclination, or in-house resource to do it themselves. Tradies in Pimpama who want to show up on Google when someone searches for their services. Retailers in Palm Beach who want their Instagram to look like a business, not an afterthought. Professional services firms in Southport who know LinkedIn matters but have never quite gotten around to it.

If you are the kind of business owner who has ever thought "I really should do something about our online presence" and then not done it - because you were too busy running an actual business - this is built for you.

You focus on what you are good at. We handle the part that has been quietly nagging at you for months.
