People often ask us… “Why do you post so much on social media?” 🤔📱
Well… take a look at those numbers! 👀
120,000 views on our page in ONE MONTH! 😳🔥
All my own work no tagging other content creators or YouTube Superstars for added clout like some others do😜
Now, before we get carried away, I’d absolutely LOVE for those 120,000 views to be 120,000 customers walking through the doors in Workington… but let’s be realistic! 😂
They’re not.
Those views are coming from all over the UK and even worldwide 🌎
And that’s exactly why social media is so important to a small business like Derwent Gas.
It’s 2026. We’re no longer relying solely on the Yellow Pages, newspaper adverts or hoping someone sees our van driving past.
Social media allows a small, local business like ours to put ourselves, our work, our knowledge and our personality in front of thousands of people every single month.
Some of those people might never need a boiler from us.
Some might live hundreds of miles away.
But some will be right here in West Cumbria, and when the day comes that they need a new boiler, a repair, a service or some advice…
We want Derwent Gas to be the name they remember. 💙
We’re proud to be a small, local business, but there’s absolutely nothing wrong with thinking BIG when it comes to promoting ourselves.
So yes… we’ll keep posting.
We’ll keep sharing.
We’ll keep having a laugh.
We’ll keep showing you what we do.
Because 120,000 views might not be 120,000 customers… but it’s 120,000 opportunities for someone to discover Derwent Gas.
And for a small business, that’s pretty bloody brilliant! 💙🔥
Thank you to everyone who watches, likes, comments, shares and follows us.
You’re helping a small West Cumbrian business get noticed far beyond Workington. 🙌
Derwent Gas — small business, big reach. 💙
