Why are we the best team for the job? Not only are we passionate about social media, we have the recognition and support from the top platforms in the industry to prove it.
Oh So Social is an Agency Partner with Facebook, TikTok and Pinterest, meaning you benefit from the best and most up-to-date knowledge to support both your organic and paid-for advertising campaigns. With direct access to Facebook UK and exclusive agency benefits, we know the latest tips and best practice to get the most out of your online presence.
Plus, our director Katherine George is one of just eight Facebook Blueprint Lead Trainers, one of 24 Facebook and Instagram accredited #SheMeansBusiness mentors, and one of the Top 6 Marketing Advisors named by Enterprise Nation, so you know that you can always trust our advice and our work.
Katherine opened up a new wave of marketing in 2014 when she started Oh So Social, Cornwall’s first marketing agency focusing solely on social media. Having previously worked on high profile projects for The Dancing on Ice Tour, Team GB and The Spanish Riding School of Vienna, Katherine’s level of knowledge and wealth of experience in social media marketing was in short supply, resulting in the rapid growth of Oh So Social over just a few years.
Katherine has developed Oh So Social from its humble beginnings which saw her offering training, help, advice, strategy and management to businesses from her kitchen table. She quickly found that, as people started to see results, they started to invest more – both in her time and in other social media services. Thanks to Katherine’s success, Oh So Social has now grown to an elite team of social media experts, managing a wide range of clients both in the UK and internationally.
Her achievements haven’t gone unrecognised, as she’s scooped a number of awards along Oh So Social’s journey. These include Entrepreneur of the Year, Young Business Person of the Year and being named in Cornwall’s 30 Under 30 four years in a row. In 2018 she had the great honour of being chosen by Facebook and Enterprise Nation as one of just 24 social media advisers in the UK for their annual #SheMeansBusiness campaign, which celebrates and provides training for female founders of start-up businesses. Since then Katherine has continued her relationship with Facebook, now being one of only a handful of Facebook Blueprint Lead Trainers in Europe.
A hub of ideas and entrepreneurial vision, Katherine is continually driving Oh So Social forward, developing new services and innovative methods for businesses and individuals to better their social media marketing.
A keen paddleboarder, when Katherine’s not sharing her social media knowledge with businesses across the country she can be found on her board or attempting to bake cakes for the office.
An experienced Account Manager, Sophie is most at home creating unique and engaging content for a variety of high-profile clients.
With a BA in Creative Writing from the University of Birmingham, Sophie is highly skilled at bringing creative flair to content and campaigns for clients on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn and many more. Whatever the subject, she has the writing talent to make it really stand out on social media.
As an account manager, Sophie is a friendly and knowledgeable point of contact for her clients – whatever the query, big or small, she will have the answer. If you have a last-minute promotion or big news to share, she will make sure you make the most of the opportunity to increase awareness of your brand.
If you’re unsure exactly what social media package you need, Sophie will work together with you to pinpoint your goals, target market and budget. She will recommend the best management or advertising package to suit your business, or create a bespoke package of services individual to your needs.
You won’t just find Sophie in the Oh So Social office though, as providing social media coverage of live events for her clients gets her out and about across Cornwall, and beyond! Live-tweeting the Google Women Techmakers South West conference, sharing pasties and smiles on a train to Devon and filming The Man Engine road-trip for the National Lottery Awards are just some of the live events she’s covered.
When she’s not adding the finishing touches to a client’s campaign, Sophie can often be found experimenting in the kitchen, trawling the internet for the latest foodie crazes to try or getting creative practising her fiction writing and art.
Naomi looks after all things social during the evenings, weekends and Bank Holidays for our innovative Out of Hours service. She’s also Oh So Social’s own in-house marketing manager.
She has a BA in English from the University of Exeter as well as comprehensive marketing and PR experience across a range of industries including education, retail, tourism and everything else in-between. Naomi has the skills to handle anything from that difficult customer question on a Friday night to combatting those occasional online trolls.
Working from home means that Naomi is ready to help with any last-minute requests, such as promoting a special offer for the weekend or participating in a Twitter chat to boost sales for your upcoming event. She will make your social media truly 24/7, allowing you to switch off while being reassured your business’ reputation is in safe hands.
After working for several large organisations in Cornwall, Naomi relishes the chance to put her skills to the test for a wide variety of clients at Oh So Social, all with different requirements, target markets and goals. At the same time, as our own marketing manager, she gets her metaphorical teeth into long-term campaigns, events and projects. It’s very much the best of both worlds!
When not monitoring your social media accounts, Naomi will be spending time with her family out in the Cornish countryside or on the beach, and being kept busy by her two energetic boys!
We all know social media is about actually being social, and the lovely Jasmine is one of our expert Account Executives who is out there being social on your business’ behalf!
Jasmine is not only working hard behind-the-scenes keeping an eye on our client accounts, replying to messages, creating Stories and looking for ways to boost engagement for businesses, she is also brilliant at creating thumb-stopping content too. She is full of creative ideas and manages accounts and content creation for a wide variety of our clients with ease.
Always Cornish at heart, Jasmine now lives in Bristol (and misses the beach every day!) She found her love of marketing and social media while studying for her Events Management degree at Cardiff Metropolitan University and even organised online festival Craft Eat Smile during lockdown.
In her free time, Jasmine keeps it creative and enjoys cooking and crochet – but probably not at the same time.
Super organised Catherine (more often referred to as ‘The Other Catherine’ in the Oh So office) is busy behind-the-scenes at Oh So Social ensuring everything runs smoothly for both the team and our clients.
With many years experience working in admin, Catherine is in charge of everything from arranging meetings and training sessions, to writing contracts and managing Katherine’s hectic diary! It’s safe to say that no two days are the same here at Oh So Social, and Catherine often finds herself doing a range of different tasks to help all of the team. We’d be lost without her!
She loves admin (well, someone has to), but with a BA (Hons) in Digital Film Production, Catherine also enjoys dipping her toes in the creative side of things here at the agency – from video editing to learning new marketing and social media skills.
When she’s not being oh so organised in the office, Catherine spends her time getting competitive on the football pitch, going on long Cornish walks or travelling the country with her husband in his camper van.
Josh is our awesome Marketing Assistant who has joined the Oh So team through the government’s Kickstart scheme. Super creative Josh can be found helping out in all areas of Oh So Social, including community management, content creation, design and research, and is learning plenty about social media along the way.
Originally from West Sussex before moving to Cornwall in 2020, Josh discovered his love of all things creative studying for his Media Studies and Photography A Levels, and has even won a Rotary Club district Young Photographer Award! Valuable work experience at prestigious media agency Wavemaker contributing to TV campaigns for L’Oreal gave him a passion for marketing.
When not getting creative for us, Josh spends his spare time taking photos of Cornwall and Devon with his camera and drone, or playing computer games with his mates.
Every great team of creatives needs an awesome proofreader. At Oh So Social we have Lorraine.
As a lover of the English language (and ensuring it’s used correctly), Lorraine is the perfect pair of fresh eyes to oversee our social media quotes and client contracts to make triple-sure everything is as it should be.
Hailing from Yorkshire, Lorraine achieved a degree in Speech and Language Science, followed by a varied career from Events Management in London to Office Management at a local digital marketing agency. When not keeping us in check, Lorraine uses her eye for detail and organisational skills to run her own proofreading business.

‘We have always been aware that social media was likely to be a great way for us to grow our customer base and enable us to keep engaging with those who already attend our art courses, but we never had the time to take the opportunity seriously and make it happen several times a week across different social media platforms.
We have worked with Katherine and the team at Oh So Social for a couple of years now and we have found them to be excellent with great attention to detail. I have always felt able to get the right help when I really need it and our Account Manager has been quick to really understand our business.
I can honestly say that it feels like our business is communicating directly with our customers as if we were doing the social media ourselves because Oh So Social have taken the time to understand what we do. Of all the different kinds of awareness raising we have done in the past few years, social media has outperformed everything else, hands down, every time at half the cost’.
Director/Founder – Newlyn School of Art
‘I attended Oh So Social’s Social Media Strategy course back in July – and have used what I learnt during the course ever since! Katherine is careful to adapt to her audience and cover as much content as possible over 3 hours. The group is small (we were 3) which made it even more informal and effective.
‘Thanks to Katherine’s advice and knowledge, I have been able to develop our studio’s social media strategy, which has effectively supported our growth. I warmly recommend!’
Business Development and Marketing Manager – Engine House
“We do not have in-house social media expertise, however working with Oh So Social is just like having an integrated team.
“We’ve certainly found their expertise and supportive approach invaluable during these very uncertain times; it’s been reassuring to have an agency on board who were very conscious of keeping content relevant to the ever-changing lockdown restrictions, whilst also being a sounding board on how we could best utilise social media to our best advantage during such strange times.
“Their 24/7 service has certainly been a benefit during the period where we have been working with such a skeleton team. We can’t thank them enough for the support and extra mile they have gone to during these past few months.”
‘It was brilliant, so informative, easy to follow and very exciting. I came away buzzing with ideas for my business plans.’
Attended Instagram for Business group training course.
‘One of the stand out sessions was social media advice from Katherine George at Oh So Social. Everything she said was gold. She explained how it’s important to not only promote your products. A third of your messaging should be sales and the rest should be connecting with and informing customers. You need that balance and it needs to be consistent in terms of the language and the colour scheme you use.’
Attended Amazon Bootcamps workshop.
