Smarcomms offers an entry-level plan at £99/month, seemingly targeted at solo entrepreneurs, but there are crucial caveats. One surprising add-on fee is an extra £9.95 for using their social media scheduling platform, which essentially charges you to post the content they've created. This could be perceived as a hidden cost, especially for businesses that assume posting is part of the management package.
While Smarcomms delivers decent quality, custom-branded posts—a marked improvement over competitors that rely on generic stock photos—their entire operation is based in the Philippines. This could raise concerns about the consistency and quality of content, and the capacity to quickly adapt to trends or breaking news relevant to different time zones or cultures.
By comparison, Feedbird offers a more comprehensive approach without hidden fees, ensuring consistency and real-time adaptability in your social media strategy. In essence, while Smarcomms' £99 plan may seem cost-effective initially, it's worth scrutinizing the details and potential limitations, especially for those seeking a more nuanced, responsive social media presence.

How will I communicate with your team?
Your communication will be in written form inside our Client Portal with your dedicated account manager or via email.
We aim to respond multiple times per day and always within 24 hours.
A benefit of doing everything in written form is that everybody involved in delivering the services will have the full picture of everything that was ever communicated with you.
However, if your subscription amount is $149 or above, you qualify for an optional 20-min onboarding call and as well as a monthly content review call with our content strategist.
What happens if I don’t like what you create?
Our goal is your complete satisfaction. We'll make tweaks and adjustments as many times as needed to create an end result you truly love - as long as it’s within the original scope.
Just provide your input, and we'll keep perfecting it.
What is your cancellation policy?
Unlike our competitors, you don't need to call us or send an email to cancel your subscription, you can do it yourself.
Are there any refunds if I don't like the service?
We don’t offer refunds due to the non-returnable nature of personalised digital services and the manual labour involved.
While we strive for your satisfaction this is not a “only pay if you like it” service. You pay us for creative deliverables based on your brief, feedback, and revisions.
We don’t guarantee satisfaction, marketing results, growth, engagement, but we will happily implement any revisions needed that are within the original scope of the brief.
Your payment covers content creation. The additional service of posting on your behalf is complimentary. Hence, if technical challenges prevent us from posting for you we simply suggest downloading our content and posting it on your own.
How often am I charged?
All plans auto-renew until you decide to cancel. You can switch, pause or cancel your plan at any time in our Client Portal to avoid future charges.
Which services do you offer?
But keep an eye out as we do have new services on our roadmap that we will be introducing this year.
Where do you get the visuals from?
For clients that have a lot, we mostly work with that.
For clients that don’t have much content, we tend to work with premium stock photos or more graphic-design based posts that are relevant to your brand.
However, the approach is something we decide together with the client.
