FOR LOCAL BUSINESSES DROWNING IN SOCIAL MEDIA
You're Spending 10-15 Hours Weekly on Social Media… And It Still Doesn't Look Professional
Get Social Done is the done-for-you social media management service that handles content, publishing, engagement, and analytics - so you look active and credible 24/7 while reclaiming your entire week.
The Hidden Time Vampire Killing Your Local Growth
If you’re a local business owner, you already know this:
Everyone keeps telling you “You’ve gotta be on social media.”
And you agree.
You know your customers are scrolling Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok while sitting on the couch, in the carpool line, or even in your waiting room. You know your competitors are popping up in their feeds. You know people check social profiles before they ever call, visit, or book.
But here’s the problem…
Social media has quietly turned into a time vampire that eats 10–15 hours of your week - time you absolutely do not have. By the time you’ve opened the apps, stared at the blinking cursor, tried to think of something clever to post, and fiddled with a photo… your day is gone and you still haven’t done it consistently.
So you do what most busy owners do:
You post here and there when you “get a chance.” A holiday post. A random promo. Maybe a quick selfie in the office. Then three weeks disappear… and your last post makes you look either too busy to care or dangerously close to closed.
Why I Started GSD Local (And What I Kept Seeing Everywhere)
My name is Daniel Terry, and I started GSD Local for one simple reason:
I saw good, honest local businesses getting quietly crushed…
…not because they weren’t great at what they do,
…but because online, they looked invisible, inconsistent, or outdated.
I’d talk to owners who were absolute pros in their craft - plumbers, chiropractors, gyms, local boutiques, home services, restaurants, you name it. In person, they were amazing. Customers loved them. Word-of-mouth was strong. But on social? It was crickets. Or worse, a Facebook page that hadn’t been updated since last Christmas.
I found myself sharing what I’d learned - how to create content, what to post, how often, how to turn casual followers into real-life customers. And I realized something:
I loved helping them make sense of all this.
That’s where GSD Local came from:
A genuine passion for helping local businesses stop feeling guilty about social media… and finally turn it into something that works for them, not against them.
My goal is simple:
Make your business look as professional, trustworthy, and active online as it really is offline - without you having to become a full-time content creator.
The Real Cost of “We’ll Just Post When We Can”
Let’s be blunt:
Sporadic posting doesn’t just not help - it can actually hurt you.
When someone hears about your business, the first thing they do is look you up. They check Google, they click your website, and then they usually tap over to your Facebook or Instagram. In those first few seconds, they’re asking themselves:
“Is this place legit? Are they active? Do they look trustworthy?”
If your last post is from months ago, or your feed looks like a jumble of random promotions, it sends a quiet but powerful signal:
“We’re not really paying attention.”
That’s why Consistency = Credibility.
Regular, on-brand, helpful content makes you look organized, professional, and open for business. It tells people, “We’re active. We’re here. We care.” That alone can be the difference between a prospect calling you… or backing out and going somewhere else.
Regular, professional social presence builds Trust Currency - the accumulated digital credibility that makes prospects choose you before they ever call.
And then there’s the other side: lead flow.
Most small businesses treat social media like a digital flyer. Post a promo, hope someone sees it, and then shrug when nothing happens. Meanwhile, your potential customers are in your comments, your DMs, watching your stories, and checking your videos - but nobody’s managing the relationship.
No one’s replying in a timely, professional way.
No one’s guiding those people toward an actual booking, purchase, or visit.
That’s where most local businesses are leaking opportunities every single week.
Social media credibility works hand-in-hand with local search visibility - the Top 3 Map Pack Accelerator ensures prospects find you in Google's top 3 positions when they search for your services locally.
Introducing “Get Social Done” by GSD Local
That’s why I created Get Social Done - a done-for-you social media management service designed specifically for busy local businesses who want real results, not just random posts.
Think of it like this:
You stay focused on running your business.
We become your voice and presence online.
With Get Social Done, GSD Local handles the entire social process for you:
We create the content that fits your brand and speaks to your local audience.
We publish it consistently across your key platforms.
We manage the engagement - comments, DMs, mentions - like a professional front desk that never sleeps.
We track what’s actually working, adjust, and continually refine the strategy.
Instead of social media being a nagging “should,” it becomes a clear, predictable system.
A system that builds your authority, deepens trust in your community, and helps turn followers into paying customers.
You’re not buying “posts.”
You’re turning your social media into a profit-generating asset that quietly supports your business 24/7.
What You Actually Get (Features & Benefits That Matter)
Here’s what’s included when you plug into Get Social Done:
1. Strategic Content Planning
We don’t just throw up random pictures and quotes.
We build a simple, clear content strategy around your business goals: more calls, more bookings, more foot traffic, more repeat customers. We map out themes, campaigns, and storylines designed to position you as the go-to choice in your area.
Strategic messaging is the foundation of effective social content - discover how the Local Authority Copy System creates conversion-focused messaging that amplifies across all your marketing channels including social media.
Result: You look thoughtful, consistent, and worth following - not like you’re winging it.
2. Done-For-You Content Creation & Publishing
Our team creates posts, graphics, short-form videos, and stories tailored to your brand voice and your local market. Then we schedule and publish them for you on platforms like Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, and more (based on what makes sense for your business).
Video content generates 5-10X more engagement than static posts and significantly improves AI search visibility - learn why professionals with consistent video presence dominate local markets.
Result: You show up regularly in your customers’ feeds without lifting a finger or staring at a blank screen.
3. Community Management (We “Work the Room” Online)
When people comment, ask questions, or DM, we’re there.
We respond, acknowledge, route important inquiries to you, and keep your pages feeling alive and welcoming. It’s like having a friendly front desk person online, making a great first impression 7 days a week.
Result: You stop losing warm leads simply because no one replied or followed up.
4. Performance Tracking & Simple Analytics
We watch the numbers - what posts get engagement, what topics your audience responds to, when they’re most active. Then we use that to tweak and refine what we’re doing.
Result: Your social media gets smarter over time, instead of staying stuck at “spray and pray.”
This continuous optimization creates the Authority Flywheel effect—where consistent content attracts better followers, who provide better engagement, which strengthens your market position over time.
5. Amplifying What You’re Already Doing
Already running ads? Hosting events? Publishing blogs? Recording videos? Perfect. Social media should amplify all of that. We plug your existing marketing into your social channels so every effort you make reaches more people, more often.
Video content performs exceptionally well on social media - discover how ClipCred transforms one monthly interview into 25-30 professional videos that Get Social Done strategically publishes for maximum engagement and authority building.
Result: You squeeze more ROI out of everything else you’re doing, without more work on your end.
6. The “Time Vampire” Solution
Most owners could learn this stuff themselves. But realistically, to do it well would take hundreds of hours of learning… plus the ongoing headache of keeping up with algorithm changes and trends.
Result: You reclaim 10 - 15 hours a week to do what you do best - while knowing your social media is taken care of by pros.
How Working With GSD Local Actually Works
I like to keep things simple, transparent, and low-pressure.
Here’s how it typically goes when a business signs up for Get Social Done:
Step 1: Quick Discovery & Social Audit
We hop on a short call where I learn about your business, your goals, and what you’ve tried so far. Then we take a look at your current social presence - what’s working, what’s missing, and where the biggest opportunities are. You’ll walk away with clarity, whether we work together or not.
Step 2: Strategy & Content Roadmap
If it’s a good fit, we build a straightforward plan:
Which platforms we’ll focus on
How often we’ll post
What type of content we’ll create
How we’ll position your business in your local market
No jargon. No 60-page reports. Just a simple, clear roadmap.
Step 3: Onboarding & Brand Voice Setup
We gather your logo, brand colors, photos, past content, offers, and key messages. We create a “brand voice guide” so your posts sound like you - not some random marketer. Once you approve the direction, we’re off to the races.
Step 4: Launch, Optimize, and Grow
We start publishing, engaging, and tracking. You’ll get regular updates (in plain English) and the ability to review content ahead of time if you want. Over time, we double down on what works and refine what doesn’t.
You’re never left wondering, “What are they even doing for us?”
You know exactly what’s happening, and more importantly, you feel the difference:
Stronger presence
More engagement
More people saying, “I’ve been seeing you everywhere.”
Who This Is (And Isn’t) For
Get Social Done is designed for busy local businesses nationwide who:
Know social media matters but don’t have the time or desire to do it themselves
Want to look professional and active online, not amateur or inconsistent
Care about real business outcomes (calls, bookings, visits), not just vanity metrics
Are willing to collaborate a bit (sharing updates, promotions, photos now and then), but don’t want social media to own their calendar
It’s not a fit if you’re looking for a magic button that floods you with customers overnight, or if you’re not willing to communicate at all. Social media works best when we pair your real-world excellence with a smart, consistent online presence.
If you’re serious about growing your local brand and making your online presence finally match the quality of your offline business, this is built for you.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much time do I actually save with Get Social Done?
Most local business owners spend 10-15 hours weekly on social media when they try to manage it themselves - and that's when they're actually consistent, which most aren't. This breaks down to: 3-4 hours planning what to post and creating content, 2-3 hours actually posting and scheduling across platforms, 2-3 hours responding to comments and DMs, 1-2 hours trying to understand analytics and what's working, and 2-3 hours feeling guilty about not posting or trying to catch up.
With Get Social Done, your time investment drops to approximately 30-60 minutes monthly: one initial onboarding call, occasional quick approvals or feedback (if you want review capability), and sharing updates, promotions, or photos as they happen. That's it. You reclaim 40+ hours monthly to focus on serving customers, managing operations, or actually having a life outside your business. One restaurant owner client told us: "I used to spend Sunday afternoons stressing about the week's posts. Now I spend Sundays with my family, and my social media looks better than when I was doing it myself."
The time savings alone often justifies the investment - but the consistency and professional results are what actually grow your business.
What platforms do you manage, and which ones should my business focus on?
We can manage Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, Twitter/X, YouTube community posts, and Google Business Profile posts - but we don't recommend being everywhere just to be everywhere. During your Social Media Clarity Call, we'll identify which 2-3 platforms make the most sense for your specific business and audience.
Here's our general guidance by business type: Service businesses (plumbers, electricians, HVAC, landscaping) typically focus on Facebook and Google Business Profile where local customers research and review, with Instagram as secondary for before/after content. Professional services (lawyers, doctors, financial advisors, real estate agents) usually prioritize LinkedIn for authority building, Facebook for local reach, and Instagram for personality and trust. Retail, restaurants, salons, boutiques generally emphasize Instagram for visual appeal, Facebook for promotions and community, and TikTok if targeting younger demographics.
The key principle: it's better to be consistently excellent on 2-3 platforms than sporadically mediocre on 6 platforms. We focus your efforts where your actual customers and prospects spend time, not where the latest marketing guru says you "should" be. Once we establish consistency and results on your core platforms, we can always expand to additional channels if it makes strategic sense
Will the posts sound like my business, or will they sound like a random marketing agency?
This is one of the most important elements of Get Social Done - your brand voice authenticity. During onboarding, we create a custom "brand voice guide" specifically for your business by: conducting a brand voice interview where you describe your personality, how you talk to customers, what makes you different, what you never want to sound like, reviewing your existing content (website, past posts, emails) to understand your natural style, identifying 3-5 voice attributes (examples: "friendly but professional," "straightforward no-BS," "warm and family-oriented," "technical expert but approachable"), and establishing content boundaries (topics you love, topics to avoid, humor appropriateness, formality level).
Then every post we create goes through this filter. The result: posts sound like you wrote them - just better and more consistent than you'd realistically have time to create yourself. We're not trying to make you sound like a corporate brand or a "cool" marketing agency. We're amplifying your actual voice and personality, making sure it comes through clearly and consistently online.
Most clients tell us within the first month: "People keep asking if I hired someone, but they say the posts still sound like me - just more polished." That's exactly the goal.
How long does it take to see results from social media management?
Results follow a predictable timeline based on your starting point and consistency. Month 1 (Foundation): Your social presence looks active, professional, and trustworthy - fixing the credibility gap that was costing you business. People stop seeing outdated profiles and start seeing a business that's clearly "open and thriving." You'll notice improved perception almost immediately. Month 2-3 (Momentum Building): Engagement increases as the algorithm recognizes consistent activity. Comments, DMs, and questions start flowing.
You'll hear "I've been seeing you everywhere" from prospects and customers - the frequency illusion that makes you feel omnipresent in your market. Month 4-6 (Lead Flow): Direct business impact becomes measurable - inquiries mentioning "I saw your post about..." bookings from people who've been following you, increased foot traffic from local followers, and referrals from people who discovered you on social. Month 7-12 (Compounding Authority): You're recognized as an active, established presence in your local market.
Social media becomes a reliable lead source, not a hope-and-pray tactic. New customers say "I've been following you for months" before they ever contact you - they're pre-sold. Key reality: social media isn't a direct-response channel like Google Ads where you get instant clicks.
It's a trust-building, authority-establishing, stay-top-of-mind channel that supports everything else you do. But consistency over 90+ days creates measurable business growth.
What's the investment, and how does pricing work?
Get Social Done pricing is customized based on your specific needs, number of platforms, content complexity, and current social presence - but most local businesses invest $1,200-$2,500 monthly. This typically includes: strategic content plan aligned with your business goals, 15-25 posts monthly across your chosen platforms (mix of graphics, videos, stories, and text posts), community management (response to comments, DMs, mentions within 24 hours during business days), monthly performance review showing what's working and strategic adjustments, brand voice guide and content approval process (if desired), and integration with your existing marketing (events, promos, blogs, ads).
To determine if this makes financial sense, consider: what's one new customer worth to your business? (Most service businesses: $500-$5,000+ per customer.) If social media brings you 2-3 additional customers monthly, does it pay for itself? (Usually yes, with a significant margin.) What's your time worth? (10-15 hours weekly at even $50/hour = $2,000-$3,000 monthly in opportunity cost.)
Most businesses discover Get Social Done pays for itself through: direct lead generation from social, reduced time waste and stress (reclaim 40+ hours monthly), improved credibility that supports all other marketing (people research you before calling), and compounding authority in your local market over time.
We also offer quarterly and annual payment options with modest discounts for commitment. Schedule a Social Media Clarity Call for specific pricing tailored to your business.
Do I still need to be involved, or is it really "done-for-you"?
Get Social Done is truly done-for-you with minimal ongoing involvement required. Your responsibilities: initial 45-60 minute onboarding call to discuss business, goals, brand voice, and content direction, occasional sharing of updates, promotions, events, or news (quick text, email, or photo - takes 5-10 minutes whenever something happens), optional monthly 15-minute check-in call to review performance and upcoming content (many clients skip these and just review via email), and responding to serious business inquiries that come through DMs (we handle general questions, but hot leads get routed to you).
Everything else is handled by us: all content creation (posts, graphics, videos, stories), daily publishing and scheduling across all platforms, community management (responding to comments and DMs), performance tracking and optimization, content calendar management, and platform algorithm monitoring and strategy adjustments. The philosophy: you're the expert in your business - we're the experts in making you look good online.
We don't need you to be a content creator, social media strategist, or marketing expert. We just need you to occasionally share what's happening in your business so we can amplify it strategically. Most clients spend less than 2 hours monthly on anything social-media-related once we're up and running, and many spend even less. If you can spare 15 minutes weekly to share a quick update, we handle absolutely everything else.
Can you combine social media management with video content for maximum impact?
Absolutely - combining Get Social Done with ClipCred video creates the most powerful local visibility and engagement strategy available. Here's why this combination dominates: social media management ensures consistent presence and engagement (posts published 4-6X weekly across platforms, community management building relationships daily, strategic messaging positioned for your market), while ClipCred video provides the fuel for maximum engagement (25-30 monthly videos from one 60-minute interview, video content gets 5-10X more engagement than static posts, prospects see your face and hear your voice building deep trust, video establishes expertise and personality simultaneously).
The integration is seamless: we conduct one monthly ClipCred interview capturing your expertise, we create 25-30 short videos optimized for social platforms, our Get Social Done team strategically publishes these videos across your social channels, and we handle all community engagement from the video content. The result: you record one conversation monthly, we turn it into a month's worth of the highest-performing content type (video), and your social presence becomes the most engaging, authoritative, and visible in your local market.
Businesses using both services typically see 3-5X higher engagement rates compared to text-and-image posts alone, dramatically faster trust-building (prospects feel like they know you before calling), significantly higher conversion rates (video-educated leads are pre-sold), and true market differentiation (while competitors post stock photos, you're delivering valuable video content consistently).
Schedule a discovery call to explore how these services work together to make you the undisputed authority in your local market.
