Our Services

More enquiries, fewer missed jobs, and marketing you don't have to think about.

Meta Ads

We run Facebook and Instagram ads that put your business in front of local customers who are ready to buy. Everything is tracked, so you can see exactly which ads are bringing in enquiries, and we keep optimising so your budget goes further each month.

Content That Sells

Good ads need good content. We plan and create scroll-stopping videos and posts that show off your work, build trust with local customers, and keep your pages looking active.

Lead Follow-Up Automation

Most businesses lose jobs simply by not getting back to people fast enough. We set up systems that instantly reply to new enquiries, notify you the moment a lead comes in, and follow up automatically, so no customer slips through the cracks.

Done for you, start to finish

You run your business, and we handle the marketing. You get a clear monthly update on leads, results, and what we're doing next, with no jargon.

About

About Ollie

Hi, I'm Ollie, founder of Reforge Media.

I've been chasing business ideas since I was seven, selling lavender picked from the garden. Since then I've resold clothes, traded, sold cookies, run a hair accessories business and taken on all sorts of freelance work. I funded it all through around ten part-time jobs, from pot washing and paper rounds to bartending and cold calling. Some of it made money and plenty of it didn't, but every attempt taught me something.

Many of those projects taught me digital marketing the hard way. So two years ago, while studying Business Management at Queen's University Belfast, I asked a few local businesses if I could help them grow. That turned into Reforge.

Today we use Meta ads and simple automation to bring in more customers for service-based businesses, with active clients across three countries. Our clients have seen revenue increases of around 50%, and some have had a 10x return on their ad spend. What I'm proudest of is that every client who has worked with us for more than a month is still with us, even though there are no minimum-term contracts.

Reforge has let me help UK businesses from anywhere in the world. Mostly that means 12 hours on a laptop with a nicer view. My goal is simple: to do this for as many businesses as possible.

Questions

The things people ask us before starting.

Do I have to commit to a minimum term?

No. There's no minimum-term contract — you can stop whenever you like. What we're proudest of is that every client who has worked with us for more than a month is still with us.

How long does it take to see results?

Within the first week. Your ads start reaching local customers as soon as they're live, so enquiries can come in from day one — we then keep adjusting so the following weeks do more with the same budget.

What do you actually do for me?

We run your Facebook and Instagram ads, plan and create the content they run on, set up systems that reply to new enquiries straight away, and send you a clear monthly update on leads, results and what's next. You run your business, we handle the marketing.

Which businesses do you work with?

Local service businesses whose customers live within a short drive of the door — phone repair shops, trades, and other businesses that rely on people nearby knowing they exist.

How do I know the ads are actually working?

We track what we can and show you the data: which ads are bringing in enquiries, how many leads came in, and what we're doing next. We deliberately don't publish revenue figures we can't track, so what you see is real.

Do I have to make the content myself?

No. We plan and create scroll-stopping videos and posts that show off your work and keep your pages looking active. You just need to be willing to be on camera now and then.

What does it cost?

It depends on your business and what you need. Email us and we'll tell you exactly what's involved before you commit to anything.
