Social Republic Commissioned By U.S Manufacturing Giant

Manchester-based global social media agency Social Republic, has been appointed by Custom Fireplaces, a bespoke manufacturing business based in the United States.

Custom Fireplaces, owned by eight figure business Materials Marketing, produces a wide collection of world-class, natural stone fireplace mantels and surrounds, having opened its first doors in 1965.

It will work with Social Republic to create and implement social-first content that expresses the brand’s DNA across Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, LinkedIn and Houzz, to help develop brand-consumer relationships.

Social Republic will also manage the brand’s paid and influencer campaigns to increase reach with new audiences and improve e-commerce sales.

Jim Fanning of Custom Fireplaces commented: “As we continue to increase and develop as a business, we are aware that our social media offering also needs to improve in order to meet the new demands.

“Our team reached out to Social Republic with the request of putting forward a strategy that will help to strengthen our social media presence and in-turn our e-commerce performance.

“We were impressed with the team’s approach to our brief, their thought process and knowledge of our industry. It’s good to be working with an agency that has its finger on the pulse of social media trends, alongside accreditations from the platforms themselves.

CEO of Social Republic, Rob Illidge added: “It’s an honour for us to begin working with Custom Fireplaces. We are looking forward to raising awareness of the brand in key U.S states, and revolutionising their social media activity.

“This new client win is a testament to the hard work of everyone at Social Republic, and further enhances our position as leading social media experts in the United States.

“We can’t wait to get started.”

Social Republic has established itself as a leading global agency, having developed a client base in the United Kingdom, Europe, Australia and the United States.
