How it actually runs
The people who plan it are the people who film it
Most agencies split the work: a strategist writes the deck, a junior schedules it, a freelancer shoots it and none of them speak. That is where content stops sounding like the brand and starts sounding like a brief being followed.
- One approval pass a month. The calendar arrives fully drafted with hook, caption and call to action on every post. Nothing goes live unapproved.
- Direct access, not a ticket queue. WhatsApp and email straight to us, replies within one business day.
- Two months notice, not a twelve month lock in. Long enough to be judged fairly, short enough to be a real exit.
Social media management
Five plans, every figure on the page
Four are management plans, meaning we run the channel. One is a content pack, meaning we make the posts and you publish them. Every price below reads live from our shop, so what you see is what you pay.
Rolling monthly with two months notice. No minimum term and no setup fees. Direct WhatsApp and email access with replies within one business day. Full comparison on the social media management page, and what the market charges is in our UK cost guide.

Every category has its own packages page with published prices and its own portfolio page with real work. These four are where most briefs start.

The work
An eleven month partnership with Picsart
Picsart is one of the world's leading AI-powered creative platforms. Velena Lifestyle produced original creator content for them across an eleven month partnership: concepts, filming, editing inside Picsart's own tools, captions and the approval workflow. Content produced for Picsart generated millions of views.
11
Months
Content partnership
Monthly Reels developed, filmed and edited end to end, running on the client's own channel rather than ours.

Aggregate across the partnership. Individual figures stay confidential to the client, which is why you will not see per post numbers here.

Every stage
Concept to caption
The same person appeared on camera, cut the video and wrote the caption. That is the whole model, not a claim about this one client.

UGC video
Filmed with the real product, in twelve categories
Beauty, fashion, food and drink, wellness, jewellery, tech, software, e-commerce, lifestyle, testimonials, unboxing and paid ad creative. Every category has its own portfolio page and its own published prices, and every video is filmed and edited by the same person who appears in it.
- Four tiers in every category. The difference is scripting, hook count, usage rights and whether the raw footage comes with it.
- Rights stated on the card. Organic only means organic only, and we would rather say that before you order than refund it after.
- Nothing hidden behind a form. Every price is on the page, from the portfolio hub.
Proof
What ongoing management produced
We have run organic social for the Snaptrip Group travel portfolio since September 2025. No shoot produced these numbers. The work was planning, producing, publishing and replying, every week. Growth is measured against the prior period and reported as growth only.
Source: Velena Lifestyle reporting on the Snaptrip Group portfolio, growth against the prior period since the September 2025 handover. Organic only, no paid campaign or revenue data. Two further brands are excluded because their prior period carried heavy paid spend, which would distort an organic comparison.
These are percentages from a low base, which is true of most accounts left to tick over, and they are organic, which is the harder half. Paid reach can be bought in an afternoon. This could not.

FAQ
Common questions
Velena Lifestyle is a UK social media marketing agency based in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire. It provides social media management, UGC video, website design and ecommerce, and LinkedIn services. It was founded by Velena Nikolova, Creative Director, and Dragos Nistor, Business Strategist, and the agency has been featured in Women's Health.
Yes, and that is the point. Every account is run by the founders, so the person planning your content is the person who films it, writes it and reports on it. No handovers and no junior account manager. It also means we take a limited number of clients at a time.
Five plans, all priced on this page and read live from our shop. Four are management plans where we run the channel, and one is a content pack where we make the posts and you publish them. All are rolling monthly with two months notice, no minimum term and no setup fees.
Instagram, TikTok, Facebook and LinkedIn. How many we cover is set by your plan, from one platform on the content pack up to five on Elite. We will tell you if we think a platform is not worth your time rather than list it to pad the tier.
UGC is creator video made for your brand rather than for our channel. We film it across twelve product categories, from beauty and fashion to software and hospitality. Every tier is priced on the category page, and the tiers differ on scripting, hook count, usage rights and whether the raw footage is included.
Yes, on WordPress and WooCommerce. We have built an 870 product store with worldwide shipping for a Louvre exhibited artist, a premium food ecommerce platform, and a portfolio site for a professional athlete. Website work is scoped individually rather than sold from a price list.
Organic growth across the Snaptrip Group travel portfolio since September 2025, reported as percentage growth against the prior period, and an eleven month content partnership with Picsart. Individual client figures that are confidential to the client are not published here, which is why you will see percentages rather than raw view counts.
Tell us about the brand through the contact page. We come back with the plan we would actually put you on, and if that is the cheapest thing we sell, we will say so. There is no pitch deck and no discovery call series.
