DRVN Social is a digital marketing agency with a film crew at its core. We make the content and we move it, under one roof in South Wales, so nothing gets lost in the hand-off.

Who we are
DRVN Social is a digital marketing agency built on one idea: the people who create the content should be the people who activate it. We're a production crew and marketing team under one roof in South Wales, making social-first content for established UK brands and creators, then putting it in front of the audiences that matter.
Most agencies pick a side. Production companies make beautiful films they can't distribute. Marketing agencies push out content they didn't make. We plan, shoot, edit, publish and promote everything ourselves, so every piece is built for the platform it lives on, and every result sharpens the next idea.
The outcome is content that does a job: podcasts that fill order books, YouTube series that turn viewers into customers, paid social that costs less per lead month on month. It looks exceptional. It genuinely performs.

How we work
Plan it. Shoot it.Activate it.
We use the same approach for every account, whether it's a one-day shoot or a 12-month partnership. The data from the last shoot informs the next.
01
Discovery
We start with your audience, your platforms and the number you actually care about: leads, sign-ups, sales, applications. No content gets planned until we know what it's for.
Audience research · Channel audit · Goals02
Strategy
A content plan built for the platform it lives on, not adapted to it afterwards. Formats, hooks, cadence and the paid approach are decided together, up front.
Content plan · Formats · Paid strategy03
Shoot
Shot by our crew in the studio or on location, edited in house. Brand films, YouTube series, podcasts, short-form and paid ads, all made with the feed in mind.
Studio & location · Edit · Design04
Activate
We publish, run the paid and manage the community, so the content gets in front of the right people at the right time. Organic and paid work as one system, not two departments.
Publishing · Paid media · Community05
Analytics
Monthly reporting on what moved the number, what didn't and what we're changing next. Then the loop starts again, sharper.

FAQ
Both, and that's the point. Production companies make beautiful content they can't distribute; marketing agencies distribute content they didn't make. We plan, make and distribute everything ourselves, so the content is built to perform and the performance feeds back into the content.
We work on monthly retainers rather than one-off jobs, because results come from consistency. Most partnerships run for 12 months; new clients often start on a shorter onboarding retainer of three to six months so both sides can prove the fit before committing.
Established UK brands and creators, mostly in automotive, fitness, lifestyle, tech, travel, education and the public sector. If you've been trading a few years and want content that does a job rather than just looks the part, we're probably a good match.
We're based in South Wales and shoot across the UK. Studio work happens at ours in Ebbw Vale; location shoots go wherever the story is.
We can, and sometimes we do, but the work performs best when we're also responsible for getting it seen. If you have an in-house team handling distribution, we'll build the content to fit how they publish.
Usually within a few weeks of a first call. The first month is discovery and planning; the first content normally lands in month two. If there's a launch date, tell us early and we'll build the plan around it.
Let's makesome noise.
We partner long-term with ambitious brands who want content that looks exceptional and genuinely performs. Get in touch and let's see what we can build together.
