When it comes to a good online presence, consistency is king. Having GD Media on retainer means we come to you every month, plan and shoot new content and keep a steady flow of video and photography coming in, so your website, social channels and YouTube never go quiet. We work with businesses across Somerset, and packages start from £400 a month.
With a retainer, you pay a set monthly fee and we provide regular content for your business. That might be social reels, photography, longer videos or a monthly podcast, and the mix can change as your needs do. If you don't have a media strategy yet, we can write one for you, so every shoot has a clear purpose.
Because we work with you every month, we get to know your brand, your customers and what works for you.
It doesn't need to be a huge amount of content. What matters is that it keeps coming, so you can stick to your online plan without scrambling for something to post.
We start by talking through your goals, your channels and what you'd like to post, so we know what each month needs to deliver.
Before each shoot we agree what we're capturing, whether that's a new menu, an event or behind the scenes, and plan the day around your business.
We come to you once a month and capture video and photography in one visit, working around customers and staff so we don't get in the way.
We edit and deliver your content ready to post, then look at what's working and adjust the next month, so your channels keep moving.

Posting regularly is what keeps people seeing your business. Social platforms and YouTube tend to favour accounts that stay active, and customers are more likely to trust a business that's clearly busy. A big burst of content followed by months of silence rarely works, but a smaller amount of monthly content builds up over time. The Canal Inn in Taunton is one of our retained clients. You can also read how consistency is driving growth for one of our YouTube clients.
Our content packages are flexible and can be tailor-made to meet the needs of your business. They have a 3-month minimum, or you can go month to month at a slightly higher rate.
Retainers start from £400 a month, but we can put together a package to suit what your business needs.
