Social media marketing in Monaghan, including hiring.
Most Monaghan businesses think of social media as a way to find customers, and for consumer trades it is. But a great many employers here have a more pressing problem than sales, which is finding people to do the work.
Social is the cheapest recruitment channel available and almost nobody in this county uses it properly. A campaign that fills two vacancies is worth more to a manufacturer than one that generates fifty enquiries it cannot service.
What managing your social actually involves
Content that suits what you actually need — customers, staff, or both.
The content, written and posted for you
A steady schedule in your own voice, showing real work and real people.
Recruitment campaigns
Targeted hiring ads at a fraction of agency fees. For many Monaghan employers this is the higher-value use.
Consumer campaigns
For trades and retail, aimed at the towns you serve, on both sides of the border where relevant.
Lead forms and applications
Captured in-platform, whether it is an enquiry or a job application.
Replies handled
Within the working day, which matters as much for applicants as for customers.
Showing the work attracts both
Photographs of a workshop, a production line or a finished job do two things at once in a county like this: they reassure customers and they attract people who would rather work somewhere that looks well run.
That dual return is why social tends to pay back faster for Monaghan manufacturers than they expect, and why the same content serves both purposes.
What you have to do
Send photographs of the work and, if you are hiring, be honest about the role.
Vague job ads get vague applicants. The specific ones fill faster and the people stay longer.

What it costs
€1,500 a month for one advertising channel fully managed, all social run and every lead followed up. €2,500 adds the second channel and a new website. Month to month, no setup fee, and ad spend is paid by you directly to the platforms from your own account.
Straight answers.
Yes, and cheaply. It reaches people who are not actively job-hunting, which recruitment sites by definition cannot.
If you trade or hire there, yes. Much of Monaghan's natural catchment is across the border.
For customers, sometimes. For recruitment and for looking like a well-run place to work, almost always.
For recruitment of younger staff there is an argument. For most Monaghan businesses, Facebook is enough.
Yes, with editor access rather than ownership.
No. We report enquiries, applications and what each one cost.
